GPIOs interface[edit | edit source]

i.MX6UL can handle external pins in many different ways and most of them can be configured as GPIOs. When a pin is set as a GPIO, it is possible to read its value, change its direction or change output value directly from the shell.

Description[edit | edit source]

The GPIOs interface available on the Evaluation Kit at the connector JP1. JP1 is a 2x6x2.54mm header pinstrip connector.

Device mapping[edit | edit source]

GPIOs can be used directly on Linux kernel device driver or can be configured on the device tree.

Device usage[edit | edit source]
