3.4.12 Tamper and System Signal Connectors

Unused signals and PIOs provided by the MPU are routed to separate connectors, J73 and J74. System signals are also accessible externally on these connectors.

The SAMA7D65 Curiosity Pro board provides two tamper pins for static or dynamic intrusion detection on header J73. The audio clock, shutdown, and JTAGSEL signals are also present on the same connector.

Unused and available system signals are available on header J74.
