SAM C21 Xplained
Pro implements Arduino shield connectors based on
the Arduino Uno. All references to Arduino pin
names are taken from the official Arduino schematics of the Arduino Uno.
CAUTION: The target
section of SAM C21 Xplained
Pro can be powered by 3.3V or 5.0V. The
maximum voltage the I/O pins can tolerate depends on the supply voltage. Providing
higher voltages like 5V to an I/O pin when the ATSAMC21J18A is powered by 3.3V could damage the board.
Info: Note that
all pins do not have the exact same functionality as on the Arduino Uno on the shield
connectors. Each shield should be checked for compatibility before it is
connected.
