Notes

  • Pin numbers extracted directly from Table 4 of the datasheet.
  • NC (No Connect) pins at positions 17–22 and 27–28, 32 are not connected internally and should be left unconnected.
  • Power pins (GND, 3V3) are at pins 1, 2, 15, and 38.
  • Most GPIO pins support multiple alternate functions (ADC, DAC, SPI, UART, Ethernet MAC, touch sensing, RTC, etc.); refer to the GPIO function column for specific capabilities.
  • SENSOR_VP (pin 4) and SENSOR_VN (pin 5) are input-only pins for the ADC.
  • IO32 and IO33 support 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator connections.
