General-purpose input/output: Integrated circuit GPIOs, Board-level GPIOs & Usage

A general-purpose input/output (GPIO) is an uncommitted digital signal pin on an integrated circuit or electronic circuit (e.g. MCUs/MPUs) board that can be used as an input or output, or both, and is controllable by software.
