basically, yes. the inputs from the expansion board feed into the
inputs on the main board.
if you need a high impedance input, your best bet is to cut a trace on
the main board and use one of those inputs. the exp bd takes over
main board inputs 0 and 1, so don't use those.

| Hi, Are the general-purpose analog inputs in the exp board also connected to the pull-up in the HB main? To use that kind of sensors the only way is to cut the trace in the HB, no matter I have or no the ExpBoard? Thanks Jose Luis --- Original (...)
