✅ Safe Pins to Use
These pins are safe for general GPIO usage without boot or system conflicts
💡 Why Are These Pins Safe?
⚠️ Pins to Avoid or Use with Caution
Reserved for critical functions. Misuse may cause boot failures, programming issues, or system conflicts.
Boot behavior & flash voltage
Low-level debugging interface
USB Serial/JTAG communication
Memory & PSRAM connections
Debugging & firmware uploads
| PIN | Label | Why Avoid | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| IO1 | U0TXD (GPIO1) | Connected to on-board USB-UART for uploading and logs; drives serial output at boot, so using as GPIO can disrupt programming or console. | 🔌 USB |
| IO2 | GPIO2 | If driven HIGH on reset (while IO0 is LOW), selects an unsupported SDIO boot mode, causing boot failure. | 🛠️ Strapping |
| IO3 | U0RXD (GPIO3) | Used for receiving data from USB-UART (programming); also pulled HIGH at boot for console communication, so using as GPIO can disrupt uploads. | 🔌 USB |
| IO16 | GPIO16 | Connected to internal PSRAM on PSRAM-enabled modules; not usable as GPIO on those modules. | ⚡ Flash |
| IO17 | GPIO17 | Connected to internal PSRAM on PSRAM-enabled modules; not usable as GPIO on those modules. | ⚡ Flash |
