C/SPI Activity Board Connectors

Port Expander (J1)

The pins of J1 are connected directly to the port expander IC. Signals
can be connected to an external source through these pins.

The LEDs (D0-D7) are also tied to the pins of this connector (P0-P7).

SS Connect (J4)

When this jumper is bridged, both Aardvark adapters are connected to
the SPI EEPROM slave select (SS) line. The slave select (SS) lines of
the two Aardvark adapters are always connected to each other.  

A jumper is included with the board to connect the Aardvark adapters to
the SPI EEPROM.
