Getting started

Domino Pi headers

Domino Pi has a Domino Core mounted onboard. When you first get your Pi, you need to learn about its headers.

headers

When placed as shown in the picture, you can divide the header into a left part and a right part. The left part contains 18pins on each North and South connectors and the right part contains 10 pins from both North and South connectors.

The left part can be used to mount Ethernet boards (including Single Ethernet and Dual Ethernet boards) and I2S board. While the right part can be used to mount USB boards (including Single USB and 3xUSB boards) and JTAG/SPI boards. Refer to the hardware section to make sure you mount the right extension boards in the right headers, otherwise you may break your Domino.

For a more detailed marking of the headers, refer to this diagram.
