| Typical risks | Trenz modules have variant-specific assembly options; always check exact order code. | Verify exact board revision before using pin labels, constraints, or power assumptions. Onboard debugger recognition Flash persistence mode | Check add-on pinout and exact hardware revision before connecting Pmods. |
