Board Orientation

The Pico Add-On Flipper can be connected above any of the Raspberry Pi Pico boards, as long as the USB silkscreen or Qwiic connector aligned with the USB connector of the Raspberry Pi Pico. This specific orientation must be utilized because of the pull-up resistors on the I2C pin and the RESET button connection to the RUN pin.
