1.1 - CATT pinout
Description
The CATT connector combines several different connectors in one.
- Special Addon (SAO)
- JTAG
- PMOD
Because of this multi functional nature, the name for the connector is CATT (Connect all the things), even though there are more kind of things to connect.
SAO
- *DET: Detect, when pulled down during power up, JTAG functionality is provided
- *3V3: Not connected by default, jumper on the PCB needs to be closed to supply 3V3

1.2 - Internal expansion port
Back Expansion layout
Back expansion port
This port is not exposed by default, and a modified back cover needs to be used to make it accessible. For this reason the port is also named the “internal expansion port”.

- Total for all 3.3v outputs must not exceed 1A of current. It is generally adviced to stay well below this figure.
- Do not exceed a current of 1.5A from the battery when the battery is connected to the internal battery connector
- Do not charge the battery via the internal add-on port
