JETSON TX2 HEADER PINOUT

This is the Jetson TX2 J21 GPIO Header Layout. Last updated July 18, 2018
The GPIO numbering is different than the Jetson TX1 table.

I2C Connection for Jetson TX1
NVIDIA Jetson TX1/TX2 J21 Header

Note: The arrow on the circuit board points to pin 1. Pin 2 is behind pin 1 in the picture.

The I2C bus numbers are swapped in comparison to the Jetson TX1.

I2C Bus 0 address 0x0040-0x0043 are the INA3221x power monitors.

Here is a spreadsheet which maps the J21 signals back through the carrier board, to the module, and to the Tegra chip itself:
