Hm, but these are the pin names (of the connector) and should thus not
be used, right?
For e.g. the PA0 pin, the wiki link gives three candidates:
- CON2-P13 (GPIO Pin Name -> pin 13 of the 40 pin GPIO header)
- UART2-TX (Default Function)
- PA0-EINT0 (Function2 : GPIO)
IMHO, the CON*-P* name is the least helpful of the above, as it tells
nothing about the usage. I'm not sure about the other two names, though.
