4.24 EVM Expansion Connectors
The Common processor board includes an Expansion connector of QSH-060-01-L-D-A-K with 5mm mating
height allowing multiple expansion boards (Infotainment or GESI Expansion) to be stacked below the processor
board.
Either Infotainment or GESI Expansion board can be plugged into EVM expansion connectors (J46 and J51) at
once.
