+The six pins at the bottom right of the board (D15—D20) generally
+offer lower-noise ADC performance than other pins on the board. If
+you’re concerned about getting good ADC readings, we recommend using
+one of these pins to take your measurements.
+
+Maple has an electrically isolated analog power plane with its own
+regulator, and a geometrically isolated ground plane. Pins D15—D20 are
+laid out to correspond with these analog planes, and our measurements
+indicate that they generally have the lowest noise of all the analog
+lines. However, analog performance may vary depending upon the
+activity of the other GPIOs. Consult the :ref:`Maple hardware design
