-GPIO
-====
-
-Each LeafLabs board comes with ready-to-use General Purpose
-Input/Output (GPIO) pins, which are numbered starting from zero.
-These numbers are listed on your board's silkscreen, next to where the
-pin is broken out to a header. Many pins may additionally be used for
-special features or interfacing with other hardware.

-GPIO Modes
-----------
-
-Each GPIO pin can be configured using :ref:`lang-pinmode` to behave in
-a number of ways: as a digital output pin, as an analog input pin,
-etc.
-
-A :ref:`WiringPinMode <lang-pinmode-wiringpinmode>` value specifies
-the complete set of possible configurations; not every pin can have
-all of these modes. For example, on the Maple, pin 15 may have mode
-``INPUT_ANALOG``, but not ``PWM``. See your board's :ref:`pin maps
-<gpio-pin-maps>` and its silkscreen for more information on what
-functionality is available on each pin.

-GPIO Ports
-----------
-
-Normally, you'll interact with pins using just their number (or a
-constant like :ref:`BOARD_LED_PIN <lang-board-values-led>` which
-stands for a number). However, behind the scenes, the STM32
-microcontroller on your board separates the pins into groups called
-*GPIO ports*. Each GPIO port is given a letter, so for example,
-there's GPIO port A, port B, and so on\ [#fnumports]_. The pins on a
-GPIO port are given *bit numbers*, which go from 0 to 15. In ST's
-documentation, a pin is given by the letter "P", followed by its port
-letter and bit number. For instance, "PA4" is GPIO port A, bit 4.

-.. _gpio-pin-maps:
-
-Pin Maps
---------
-
-Part of :ref:`Maple IDE's <ide>` job is to convert normal pin numbers
-into the corresponding GPIO port and bit when you call functions like
-:ref:`lang-pinmode`. It does this using a *pin map*, which lists the
-GPIO port and bit for each pin number. The GPIO documentation for
-your board includes its pin map, which also lists the other
-peripherals by pin number:

-
-.. _gpio-5v-tolerant:
-
-The current and voltage limitations were determined using the STM32
-datasheets. In particular, only some GPIO pins are **5V tolerant**,
-which means that applying 5 volts to a pin and reading it as input or
-allowing it to drain to ground will not damage that pin. Connecting a
-voltage higher than 3.3V to a non-5V tolerant pin may damage your
-board.

-.. [#fnumports] The total number of GPIO ports depends on what board
- you have. For example, Maple Mini has three: ports A, B, and C.
- Maple Native has seven: ports A through G.
