EXT Connector
From Pandora Wiki
Contents
What does it have?
- UART2
- UART3
- TV out
- Stereo line out
- Stereo line in
- The UART lines can also be used as GPIO (six of them) and PWM lines (four of them).
Note that Power Out defaults to 2.8V, while the digital I/O lines work with 1.8V logic. To avoid damaging the Pandora, a level shifter will be required for most applications using these signals.
