Good morning

I am wiring the A20_SOM into a custom board and the label attached to pin 4-1 of the headers seems incorrect
As far as schematics go, pin 4-1 should be 5VEXT

The question is: Can you confirm pin 4-1 of A20_SOM is 5VEXT ?

Thanks !

Attached to this reply there is a Kicad schematics part that includes the additional connector present in revision D of the SOM and has a few further info added

https://github.com/Engidea/e-datasheet/blob/master/electronic/SOM_OLIMEX_A20/A20-SOM_KICAD_HDR_rev_D.lib

As far as I can tell it is correct, I will know for sure when I will test the board...

On a side note, since I was looking to add a backup battery for the clock I also point to this thread that may interest you
https://www.olimex.com/forum/index.php?topic=3296.0

look for AXP_BACKUP pin in the extra connector

NOTE: You need to use the png image of the board to know where the extra connector is

Another question, sorry

The following image showing the header position has the numbering of pins

https://www.olimex.com/Products/SOM/A20/A20-SOM/resources/a20-som_dimensions.png

starting at 1 on the top left

However, the kicad module

https://github.com/OLIMEX/SOM/blob/master/A20/A20-SOM/KiCAD%20connector%20library/A20-SOM.kicad_mod

has numbering starting at bottom left (pin 1)

A simple explanation is that the PNG is actually upside-down

Can any at OLIMEX confirm ?

Thanks !!
