The Flipper Zero GPIO stands for General Purpose Input/Output and consists of 18 pins on the top side of the device. These pins allow you to interact with various electronic components and modules, making them a powerful tool for tinkering, learning, and even professional applications.
- Power supply pins: Provide power to external modules (3.3V and 5V).
- I/O pins: These are the main workhorses, allowing input (reading data) and output (sending data) to various components.
Specific GPIO pins can be configured to function as TX and RX for custom UART communication.
- Requires programming knowledge and configuration through the Flipper Zero's interface.
- Use GPIO Pin 14 (RX) and Pin 13 (TX) for default UART functionality.
- Other pins (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 15, 16) can be configured for UART with additional setup.
- Allows flexibility for interfacing with various devices and protocols.
