    PWMs and Timers 3.2.3 Up to 8 digital I/O pins can be configured with pulse-width modulators (PWM) to produce signals to control motors or create pseudo analog voltage levels, without taking up any extra CPU cycles.
  • Page 11: Analog Inputs

    Analog Inputs 3.2.4 analog- Make sure you don't input more than 1.8V to the analog input pins. This is a single 12-bit to-digital converter with 8 channels, 7 of which are made available on the headers. 3.2.5 UART There is a dedicated header for getting to the UART0 pins and connecting a debug cable. Five additional serial ports are brought to the expansion headers, but one of them only has a single direction brought to the headers.
  • Page 12: I2C

    3.2.6 The first I2C bus is utilized for reading EEPROMS on cape add-on boards and can't be used for other digital I/O operations without interfering with that function, but you can still use it to add other I2C devices at available addresses. The second I2C bus is available for you to configure and use.
