The Jetson.GPIO library of the Jetson series motherboards allows developers to interact with external hardware devices through the 40-pin GPIO pins.

1. GPIO numbering

Jetson.GPIO library supports two common numbering modes: BOARD and BCM mode

Note: The tutorial only demonstrates GPIO.BOARD mode

ModeNumbering method
GPIO.BOARDNumbering based on physical pins (1-40)
GPIO.BCMGPIO logical numbering based on Broadcom chips (directly corresponding to the GPIO channels on the hardware chip)

2. GPIO pins
