Mating the boards
The image above shows the connection of the CC3100MODBOOST to the
CC3100EMUBOOST Board. The connectors should be aligned carefully considering that
it does not have a polarity protection. The pin-1 of the connectors are marked on the
board using a small triangle marking and these should be aligned while mating.
Caution :
Align the pin-1 of the boards together using the triangle marking on the PCB. An incorrect
mating can destroy the boards permanently.
Ensure that none of the header pins are bent before mating the two boards.
