SPI pins #98

Closed iddq closed 4 years ago

SPI0_NPCS0 is PA28 and that is PIN 111 on the 144 pins package

Why is it 77 here?

77 is the Arduino pin number. This is just an arbitrary number used to refer to the pins in Arduino IO functions (e.g., pinMode, digitalRead, digitalWrite). Arduino pin numbers don't necessarily have any relation to the physical pin number.

Thanks. Can I find a schematic that uses this numbering? Can you please tell me which pin is used for SPI CS (Chip Select) by default if I'm not providing any pin number at SPI.begin() ?

The Due's schematic and pin mapping table are both available on the "Documentation" tab of the Due's product page: https://store.arduino.cc/arduino-due
