        look here
        https://forum.pycom.io/topic/1022/root-causes-of-high-deep-sleep-current/86

        it is provided for fixing problem with deepsleep current, which was to high.
        With new modules like e.g. Wipy3 it is not needed.

            look here
            https://docs.pycom.io/chapter/datasheets/boards/deepsleep.html

            To correctly connect a WiPy 2.0, LoPy or SiPy to the Deep Sleep Shield, align the white triangle on the Shield with the LED of the Pycom Device. Once the Pycome Device is seated onto the Deep Sleep Shield, this can then be connected to the Exapnsion Board.
