+Maple RET6 Edition
+==================
+
+This page is a general resource for information specific to the Maple
+RET6 Edition. The Maple RET6 Edition is a "beta" board released as a
+simple way to get a more powerful chip (the STM32F103\ **RET6**, hence
+the name) than the one on the base Maple (the STM32F103\ **RBT6**) in
+the hands of Maple developers.

+
+Powering the Maple RET6 Edition
+-------------------------------
+
+The Maple RET6 Edition is powered in the :ref:`same way as the
+standard Maple <maple-powering>`.
+
+.. warning:: The RET6 Edition silkscreen falsely indicates that the
+ barrel jack accepts up to 18 V. We recommend a barrel jack input
+ voltage **no greater than 12V**, and potentially even lower
+ depending upon the current draw requirements of the
+ application. The same goes for powering off LiPo batteries.
+
+ Please see :ref:`Power Regulation on the Maple
+ <maple-power-regulation>` for more information.
+
+.. _maple-ret6power-regulation:
+
+Power Regulation on the Maple RET6
+----------------------------------
+
+Power regulation on the Maple RET6 works in the :ref:`same way as the
+standard Maple <maple-power-regulation>`.
+
+Using the Built-in Battery Charger
+----------------------------------
+
+The RET6 Edition has a built-in LiPo battery charger. In order to use
+it, put a jumper across the CHRG header on the power selection header
+and across the USB, or EXT selectors, depending on whether you're
+charging the battery via USB cable or barrel jack connector. The LED
+labeled CHRG will light up while the battery is being charged. When
+the battery is finished charging, the LED labeled DONE will light up.
+
+.. _maple-ret6-gpios:
+
+GPIO Information
+----------------
+
+The RET6 Edition features 38 ready-to-use general purpose input/output
+(see :ref:`gpio`) pins for digital input/output, numbered ``D0``
+through ``D37``. These numbers correspond to the numeric values next
+to each header on the Maple silkscreen.
+
+.. _maple-ret6-but:
+
+Pin ``D38`` is the board's :ref:`button pin <lang-board-values-but>`.
+It is thus mainly useful as an :ref:`input <lang-pin-levels>`. The
+pin will :ref:`read <lang-digitalread>` ``HIGH`` when the :ref:`button
+is pressed <lang-isbuttonpressed>`.
+
+More GPIOs (numbered ``D39``\ --``D42`` on the back of the RET6
+Edition's silkscreen) are available if you use the
+:ref:`lang-disabledebugports` function; see the :ref:`board-specific
+debug pin constants <lang-board-values-debug>` for more information.
+(See :ref:`this erratum <maple-ret6-nrst-pb4>` for information about
+the pin numbered ``43`` on the silkscreen).

+USART Pin Map
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The Maple RET6 Edition has three serial ports whose pins are broken
+out to headers (also known as :ref:`USARTs <usart>`). They communicate
+using the pins given in the following table.
+
+.. csv-table::
+ :header: Serial Port, TX, RX, CK, CTS, RTS
+ :delim: |
+
+ ``Serial1`` | D7 | D8 | D6 | |

+ ``Serial3`` | D29 | D30 | D31 | D32 | D33
+
+Unfortunately, :ref:`UART4 and UART5 aren't completely available
+<maple-ret6-uarts>`.
+
+.. _maple-ret6-adc-bank:
+
+Low-Noise ADC Pins
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+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. More details in the
+:ref:`Maple hardware documentation <maple-adc-bank>`.

+
+Hardware Design Files
+---------------------
+
+The hardware schematics and board layout files are available in the
+`Maple GitHub repository <https://github.com/leaflabs/maple>`_. Other
+than the processor used, the design files for the Maple RET6 edition
+are identical to the Maple Rev 5, which are in the ``maple-r5``
+subdirectory of the Maple repository. A schematic for a JTAG adapter
+suitable for use with Maple is available in the ``jtagadapter``
+directory.
+
+From the GitHub repository main page, you can download the entire
+repository by clicking the "Download" button. If you are familiar
+with `Git <http://git-scm.com/>`_, you can also clone the repository
+at the command line with ::
+
+ $ git clone git://github.com/leaflabs/maple.git
+
+.. _maple-ret6-failure-modes:
+
+Failure Modes
+-------------
+
+The following known failure modes apply to all Maple boards. The
+failure modes aren't design errors, but are easy ways to break or
+damage your board permanently.
+
+* **High voltage on non-tolerant pins**: not all header pins are 5V
+ compatible; so e.g. connecting certain serial devices in the wrong
+ way could over-voltage the pins. The :ref:`pin-mapping master table
+ <maple-ret6-pin-map-master>` details which pins are
+ :ref:`5V-tolerant <gpio-5v-tolerant>`.
+
+Errata
+------
+
+This section lists known issues and warnings for the Maple RET6
+Edition. Some of these are simply due to the RET6 Edition using the
+Maple's circuit board, which was not designed to accomodate extra
+features only available on the STM32F103RET6.
+
+.. _maple-ret6-barrel-jack:
+
+* **Barrel jack power supply voltage mistake**: The acceptable voltage
+ range given next to the barrel jack on the Maple RET6 is
+ **incorrect**. The given range is 7V — 18V. In fact, **18V is too
+ high** and should not be supplied to your board. The original
+ voltage regulators used on the Maple were rated up to 18V. However,
+ the voltage regulators on current Maple Revs are rated up to only
+ 16V, and due to the current draw requirements of the board, operate
+ properly only up to 12V. The recommended maximum voltage you should
+ apply is **12V**, and potentially even lower depending upon the
+ current draw requirements of the application. Please see :ref:`Power
+ Regulation on the Maple <maple-power-regulation>` for more
+ information.
+
+* **Power supply marketing mistake**: We originally sold the Maple
+ RET6 Edition advertising that it was capable of supplying up to 800
+ mA; the correct value is 500 mA.
+
+.. _maple-ret6-uarts:
+
+* **UART4, UART5 GPIOs unavailable**: Pins related to UARTs 4 and 5
+ are not broken out to headers (specifically, PC11/UART4_RX and
+ PC12/UART5_TX). This is due to the RET6 Edition's board layout
+ being that of the Maple Rev 5, which was not designed with these
+ RET6-specific features in mind.
+
+.. _maple-ret6-dac-ch2:
+
+* **DAC channel 2 on BOARD_LED_PIN**: The Maple Rev 5 connects PA5 to
+ the board's built-in LED; this is the same GPIO bit which is
+ connected to the DAC's channel 2 output. This is also due to the
+ RET6 Edition's board layout being that of the Maple Rev 5. The DAC
+ output channel is still available, and (if you use the
+ :ref:`standard libmaple DAC interface <libmaple-dac>`) its output is
+ buffered by default, so this may not significantly interfere with
+ its functionality.
+
+.. _maple-ret6-nrst-pb4:
+
+* **Reset and PB4 tied together**: The RET6 Edition's reset line is
+ also connected to PB4, which is labeled on the silkscreen as pin 43.
+ Thus, attempting to use pin 43 as a GPIO can reset your board. This
+ has other implications. Since PB4 is also the JTAG NJTRST line,
+ this prevents the :ref:`JTAG <jtag>` "reset halt" command from
+ working properly. Also, since PB4 is SPI3_MISO, the SPI3 peripheral
+ is not fully usable.
+
+.. _maple-ret6-sdio:
+
+* **SDIO lines not broken out**: The RET6 Edition's SDIO peripheral is
+ not usable, as some of its data lines are either not broken out or
+ used for other purposes. This is also due to the RET6 Edition's
+ board layout being that of the Maple Rev 5.
+
+.. _maple-ret6-adc-led:
+
+* **ADC on BOARD_LED_PIN**: We originally sold the Maple RET6 Edition
+ advertising 16 analog input lines. However, one of them (the one on
+ pin 13) is also connected to the built-in LED. The voltage drop
+ across the LED means that the analog to digital converter on that
+ pin is not really useful. While it is still usable, its readings
+ will be incorrect.
