# Jetson Orin Nano Super — GPIO / I2C / UART / CSI Pinout Reference
|
||
## Self-Balancing Robot: ESP32 Bridge + RealSense D435i + RPLIDAR A1M8 + 4× IMX219
|
||
|
||
Last updated: 2026-02-28
|
||
JetPack version: 6.x (L4T R36.x / Ubuntu 22.04)
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 40-Pin Header Overview
|
||
|
||
The Jetson Orin Nano Super 40-pin header is physically compatible with Raspberry Pi HATs.
|
||
Pin numbering follows **physical board pin** (1–40).
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
3.3V [ 1] [ 2] 5V
|
||
SDA1 [ 3] [ 4] 5V ← I2C SDA (i2c-7 on Orin Nano)
|
||
SCL1 [ 5] [ 6] GND ← I2C SCL (i2c-7 on Orin Nano)
|
||
GPIO [ 7] [ 8] TXD0 ← UART TX (ttyTHS0)
|
||
GND [ 9] [10] RXD0 ← UART RX (ttyTHS0)
|
||
GPIO [11] [12] GPIO
|
||
GPIO [13] [14] GND
|
||
GPIO [15] [16] GPIO
|
||
3.3V [17] [18] GPIO
|
||
MOSI [19] [20] GND ← SPI1 MOSI
|
||
MISO [21] [22] GPIO ← SPI1 MISO
|
||
SCLK [23] [24] CE0 ← SPI1 CLK / CS0
|
||
GND [25] [26] CE1 ← SPI1 CS1
|
||
ID_SD[27] [28] ID_SC ← I2C ID EEPROM (reserved)
|
||
GPIO [29] [30] GND
|
||
GPIO [31] [32] GPIO
|
||
GPIO [33] [34] GND
|
||
GPIO [35] [36] GPIO
|
||
GPIO [37] [38] GPIO
|
||
GND [39] [40] GPIO
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Note on Orin Nano I2C bus numbering:** The 40-pin header I2C pins (3/5) map to
|
||
`/dev/i2c-7` on Orin Nano (not i2c-1 as on the older Nano). Verify with:
|
||
```bash
|
||
ls /dev/i2c-*
|
||
i2cdetect -l
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 1. ESP32 Bridge (USB CDC — Primary)
|
||
|
||
The ESP32 BALANCE acts as a real-time motor + IMU controller. Communication is via **USB CDC serial**.
|
||
|
||
### USB CDC Connection
|
||
| Connection | Detail |
|
||
|-----------|--------|
|
||
| Interface | USB on ESP32 BALANCE board → USB-A on Jetson |
|
||
| Device node | `/dev/ttyACM0` → symlink `/dev/esp32-bridge` (via udev) |
|
||
| Baud rate | 921600 (configured in ESP32 BALANCE firmware) |
|
||
| Protocol | JSON telemetry RX + ASCII command TX (see bridge docs) |
|
||
| Power | Powered via robot 5V bus (data-only via USB) |
|
||
|
||
### Hardware UART (Fallback — 40-pin header)
|
||
| Jetson Pin | Signal | ESP32 Pin | Notes |
|
||
|-----------|--------|-----------|-------|
|
||
| Pin 8 (TXD0) | TX → | PA10 (UART1 RX) | Cross-connect TX→RX |
|
||
| Pin 10 (RXD0) | RX ← | PA9 (UART1 TX) | Cross-connect RX→TX |
|
||
| Pin 6 (GND) | GND | GND | Common ground **required** |
|
||
|
||
**Jetson device node:** `/dev/ttyTHS0`
|
||
**Baud rate:** 921600, 8N1
|
||
**Voltage level:** 3.3V — both Jetson Orin and ESP32 are 3.3V GPIO
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Verify UART
|
||
ls /dev/ttyTHS0
|
||
sudo usermod -aG dialout $USER
|
||
# Quick test
|
||
picocom -b 921600 /dev/ttyTHS0
|
||
```
|
||

## 4. 4× IMX219 CSI Cameras (MIPI CSI-2)
|
||
|
||
The IMX219 (Sony 8MP) cameras connect via MIPI CSI-2 FFC cables to the Jetson Orin Nano.
|
||
|
||
### CSI Connector Layout (Orin Nano Developer Kit)
|
||
|
||
The Orin Nano Developer Kit has two MIPI CSI-2 connectors:
|
||
- **CSI-A (J5):** 15-pin FFC — connects to ArduCam adapter A
|
||
- **CSI-B (J8):** 15-pin FFC — connects to ArduCam adapter B
|
||
|
||
Each ArduCam multi-camera adapter multiplexes 2× IMX219 cameras onto one CSI lane.
|
||
|
||
### ArduCam Multi-Camera Adapter Wiring
|
||
| Adapter | Cameras | CSI Connector | V4L2 Devices |
|
||
|---------|---------|---------------|--------------|
|

| Adapter A (CSI-A) | front + left | J5 | `/dev/video0`, `/dev/video2` |
|
||
| Adapter B (CSI-B) | rear + right | J8 | `/dev/video4`, `/dev/video6` |
