Flip&Click SAM3X pin definitions.

[awneil]

Is there a header file with Flip&Click SAM3X pin definitions?

Specifically for the Arduino IDE just now, but something general should do...

Hi,

Here is the schematic of he board and a manual:

Here is a manual on how to program the board if you need it:

Regards,

Yes, but is there a header with the pin definitions?

It's laborious (and error-prone) to have to manually transcribe from the schematic!

Hi,

I'm afraid we don't have a header for this.

Regards,
Filip.

That does seem like a major omission.

Surely, that should be considered a basic part of the "board support package"?

It's a fundamental part of the usability of any development board!

EDIT

There isn't even a table of pin usage - the *only* way is to manually trace it from the schematic.

OK so here's a spreadsheet showing what's connected to all the pins of the SAM3, and the pinouts of the mikroBUS and Arduino headers:

Yes, there is a header file available with Flip&Click SAM3X pin definitions. The file is called "variant.h" and it can be found in the "variants" folder of the "Arduino SAM Boards" package.

To locate the file on your computer, you can follow these steps:

Open the Arduino IDE
Go to "Tools" > "Board" and select "Arduino Due (Programming Port)"
Go to "File" > "Examples" > "01.Basics" and select "Blink"
Click on the "Verify" button to compile the sketch
Once the compilation is complete, click on the "Show verbose output" button (the button with the icon of a magnifying glass located on the right side of the Arduino IDE window)
Scroll up in the output window and look for the line that starts with "Using library Arduino SAM Boards". The line should contain the path to the "variants" folder.
Navigate to the "variants" folder and locate the "variant.h" file.
The "variant.h" file contains the pin definitions for the Flip&Click SAM3X board. You can use these definitions in your sketches by including the file at the beginning of your code using the following line:

#include <variant.h>

Looks very good !

Thanks for sharing.
