Pin Function Grouping
Table
| Group | Pins | Why grouped here | Suggested Section | Suggested Pin Group | Suggested Flux Pin Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Power | Pin 1 VDD I/O; Pin 6 VS | Supply rails: digital interface supply and main supply voltage | Power | Power | Power In |
| Ground | Pin 2 GND; Pin 4 GND; Pin 5 GND | All ground/return pins | Ground | Ground | Ground |
| Communication / Serial Interface | Pin 7 CS; Pin 12 SDO / ALT ADDRESS; Pin 13 SDA / SDI / SDIO; Pin 14 SCL / SCLK | SPI/I2C bus and address/control signals | Communication | Serial_Interface | Pin 7 Input; Pin 12 Output/Bi-Directional depending mode; Pin 13 Bi-Directional; Pin 14 Input |
| Interrupt Outputs | Pin 8 INT1; Pin 9 INT2 | Dedicated interrupt output pins | Signal | Interrupt | Output |
| Reserved | Pin 3 RESERVED; Pin 11 RESERVED | Datasheet-reserved pins with required connection/open guidance | No Connect or Control* | Reserved | Unspecified* |
| No Connect | Pin 10 NC | Not internally connected | No Connect | NC | Not Connected |
Reserved group rather than mixing them with Power/Ground, even though the datasheet gives connection guidance: Pin 3 must be connected to VS or left open, and Pin 11 must be connected to ground or left open. This prevents them from being duplicated in Power or Ground while still preserving their required handling in the pin description.Table
| Pin No. | Datasheet mnemonic | Datasheet function | Assigned group |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | VDD I/O | Digital interface supply voltage | Power |
| 2 | GND | Must be connected to ground | Ground |
| 3 | RESERVED | Must be connected to VS or left open | Reserved |
| 4 | GND | Must be connected to ground | Ground |
| 5 | GND | Must be connected to ground | Ground |
| 6 | VS | Supply voltage | Power |
| 7 | CS | Chip select | Communication / Serial Interface |
| 8 | INT1 | Interrupt 1 output | Interrupt Outputs |
| 9 | INT2 | Interrupt 2 output | Interrupt Outputs |
| 10 | NC | Not internally connected | No Connect |
| 11 | RESERVED | Must be connected to ground or left open | Reserved |
| 12 | SDO / ALT ADDRESS | Serial data output for SPI 4-wire / alternate I2C address select | Communication / Serial Interface |
| 13 | SDA / SDI / SDIO | I2C serial data / SPI serial data input / SPI 3-wire data I/O | Communication / Serial Interface |
| 14 | SCL / SCLK | Serial communication clock for I2C/SPI | Communication / Serial Interface |
VS and ground respectively, because their actual function is RESERVED.SDO / ALT ADDRESS, SDA / SDI / SDIO, and SCL / SCLK are common serial-interface functions and belong together.INT1 and INT2 are common interrupt output functions and belong together.Section, Pin Group, Pin Type, Pin Orientation, and short Pin Description properties from this mapping.Welcome 👋
