Interface cheat sheet

Choose an interface here, then follow the connector reference to find its physical pins. MCU package pins and connector pad numbers use different numbering systems.

Interface	MCU route / example mux	Connector access	Practical use
Application / ROM UART	UC4 TX PA0 pin 20; RX PA1 pin 21; mux 7	J2.4 TX, J2.6 RX; J1 A3/C3	Application UART or ROM BSL access, using the protocol for the active boot mode
Additional UART	UC1 TX PB21 pin 87; RX PB22 pin 88; mux 8	J3.7 / J3.8	Additional serial connection with application configuration
I²C	UC2 SDA PA22 pin 93; SCL PA23 pin 94; mux 4	J4.3/4 and J3.10/9	Shared two-wire bus; configure controller transactions with completion timeouts
SPI	UC3 MOSI PC6 pin 5; MISO PC4 pin 3; SCLK PC2 pin 1; mux 6	J6.10/9/8	Configure mode, word length and chip-select timing for the connected device
CAN controller	MCAN0 TX PA12 pin 73; RX PA11 pin 72; mux 10	On-module U2, bus J5.2/3 and J6.3/2	Application-configured CAN traffic through the on-module transceiver
Debug	PA13 SWDIO, PA14 SWCLK	J2.2 / J2.3	Core access and programming through a compatible probe
Analog	30 assigned pads across ADC0–2	J1; AN on J6.5 is PA28	Application-scheduled acquisition with the carrier-supplied reference
Timed output	MCPWM output routes on exposed pads	J1; PB12 also J3.5	Continuous PWM; outputs on each module share a period
Expansion control	PB2 INT, PA20 reset-purpose GPIO, PA21 CS-purpose GPIO	J3.6, J6.6, J6.7	GPIO connections for interrupt, reset or chip-select roles in the application

ROM transport is a separate capability

ROM CAN uses 1 Mbit/s nominal/data, CAN-FD without BRS, and IDs 3/4. Follow the boot-clock and BOOT-pin setup in boot and recovery. Application CAN requires its own controller, clock and pad initialization.

CAN termination control

PC0, MCU pin 97, controls the CAN termination switch through CAN_TERM. This signal is also available at J1.B9. Configure PC0 as a GPIO output to select termination for the module’s position on the bus. PB9 is a separate GPIO at J1.K7.

Multiplexing rules

A pad uses one selected digital function at a time. Choosing PWM on a pad replaces its GPIO function; analog inputs need the appropriate analog configuration. The GPIO download lists MCU package pins, board nets and connector access to help you follow each route.

The expansion rows each have 12 pins. J6.2/3 carry CANL/CANH, and J4 provides Qwiic access to I²C. Use the module’s pinout when connecting accessories, including the power and ground pins.
