Question

In MX I noticed that the colors of the pins are, for some micros, more lively and the pins are drawn with solid lines, while in other cases with small strokes. (For example STM32F401RET and STM32F401CCUx). Am I making mistakes or is everything normal

The "lively" colors are shown when you look at the chip from the bottom. Click the|..| button to flip the chip over.

Thank you... but ," Actually, the Flip horizontal/flip vertical buttons are available only for BGA packages." as ST say. :expressionless_face:

The pin outline is dashed when the pins actually cannot be seen and you are looking at them through the chip package.

Correct .... MX tries to give a physical representation of the micro, and in some cases the pins are 'hidden'. Thanks
