6.2. Hardware Connectors
As illustrated in Figure 17 there are two separate I

C buses implemented on this board. The Si1146 is on its own
bus while the Si7013 and the I2C Ribbon Connector J6 are on the second bus. This allows for expansion boards
designed for the I

C Ribbon Connector to connect to the Biometric-EXP without the possibility of an I

C slave
address conflict between any potential Si1145/Si1146/Si1147 devices on the expansion board.
Table 1 details the pinouts and signal function of the Biometric-EXP connectors JP3 and JP4.
