Detailed Description

Board specific definitions and implementations.

The boards module contains all definitions and implementations that are specific to a certain board. Generally, boards consist of a fixed configuration of a controller and some external devices such as sensors or radios. All aspects concerning configuration of GPIO pins, MCU clock and device drivers should go into this module.

Guide to board pinouts

The following are the steps to take to locate specific pinouts on boards. This is useful when connecting external hardware to RIOT supported boards.

  1. Check the board documentation to see if the pinout is available
  2. If the pinout is not available or up to date check the following:
    • boards/<BOARD>/include/periph_conf.h for board specific peripherals such as UART or SPI pins
    • boards/<BOARD>/include/board.h for GPIO specific pins such as LED0 or BTN0
    • boards/common/<COMMON_BOARD_OR_CPU>/include/periph_conf_common.h for shared pins that are the same for many different boards (board_common.h or others will be available too)
    • boards/common/<COMMON_BOARD_OR_CPU>/include/<PERIPH_DECLARATION> also may contain specific periphirals such as PERIPH_DECLARATION = cfg_i2c1_pb8_pb9.h which indicates I2C pins are on pb8 and pb9
  3. Once the needed pins are determined with either a port where PORTA = PORT_A = PA = 0 or PORTB = PORT_B = PB = 1 and pin number, such as PA, 1, correlate that to the board (the board may either have the designators or search online to find which GPIO corresponds to physical location on the board)
  4. Match the GPIO with the specific pin and connect the wires

Examples of finding pinouts

The following will be different examples of how to find pinouts

Finding pins of the I2C device 0 on samr21-xpro

  1. The documentation says I2C is supported but does not say the pinout
  2. Checking the pinout in boards/samr21-xpro/include/periph_conf.h the scl_pin = GPIO_PIN(PA, 17) and the sda_pin = GPIO_PIN(PA, 16)
  3. Since the board has the GPIO port and pin printed on the board the physical location is PA16 and PA17

Finding pins of the UART device 1 on nucleo-f103rb

The dev number is only the location in the array and does not mean the number of the peripheral

  1. The documentation says UART is supported but does not say the pinout
  2. Checking the pinout in boards/nucleo-f103rb/include/periph_conf.h the rx_pin = GPIO_PIN(PORT_A, 10), the tx_pin = GPIO_PIN(PORT_A, 9) and the dev = USART1, though device 1 can equal any USARTn number
  3. Since the board does not have information on where these pins are physically located it is recommended to search online for that board
  4. After locating the physical layout the rx_pin can be found on CN9-1 using either PA_10 or UART1_RX and the tx_pin can be found on CN5-1 using either PA_9 or UART1_TX, it is recommended to use the GPIO pin as sometimes the peripheral may be using an alternate pin
