Main power input. Adafruit Learn says to power it with the same logic level as the microcontroller, for example 5 V on a 5 V Arduino.
3.3 V regulator output. Learn states up to 100 mA may be drawn from this output.
Common ground for power and logic.
I2C clock line. Learn states it has a 10K pullup and is level shifted for 3-5 VDC use.
I2C data line. Learn states it has a 10K pullup and is level shifted for 3-5 VDC use.
Interrupt output. Learn states it is 3 V logic and can indicate a new reading or threshold event.
STEMMA QT connector for I2C connection to STEMMA QT boards or accessories.
