OLIMEX© 2015 IMX233-OLinuXino-MINI user's manual 6.4 GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output) 40pin connector The GPIO pins are led out on a separate 40pin connecter. They allow the user to attach additional hardware, check readings or perform hardware debug. The “GPIO Pin#” column shows connector number and does NOT represent the naming on the bottom of the board. - Page 28 You can check the connection between Linux naming of the pin, Olimex naming of the pin and the consecutive connector pin number in the table below. The ones filled with “Not implemented” doesn't have Linux support by the time of writing and will be updated overtime.

2) 3.3V_E open (unsoldered/cut), 3.3VIO_E closed (soldered) In the default variant 1) the board uses the mounted by OLIMEX DC-DC 3.3V convertor which when the board is powered by external supply is the better alternative. However, if you use battery it will not power the chip handling the USB and the LAN functionality. -
