i-MOD Button/I2C - i-MOD standard

The i-MOD connectors are standard connectors defined by Seco to allow customers to easily add functions to a baseboard.

The connector got 3 pins for buttons and an I2C-interface for sensors etc.

This is the pinning of the connector on the carrier board.
Extension boards use the opposite numbering scheme.

Check the baseboard datasheet for button IO-voltage and usage. Typically the 3 button-signals are to be used with an open-collector Output / switch to GND.
