fn1. Measured between USB GND and USB VCC

fn2. Code is required to use the switch as you need to configure both the MUIC and DP3T switch

fn3. See "The related driver source code":https://git.replicant.us/replicant/kernel_samsung_smdk4412/tree/drivers/misc/max77693-muic.c#n102

fn4. See the "postmarketOS wiki page on Serial debugging":https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Serial_debugging

fn5. See the "driver":https://git.replicant.us/replicant/kernel_samsung_smdk4412/tree/drivers/misc/max77693-muic.c and the "ifixit teardown":https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung+Galaxy+S+III+Teardown/9391

fn6. Reference: [[OptimusBlackSerial]]

fn7.

fn8. Works, as it was tested on the device. TODO: measure the voltage, as lower UART voltages often works with higher voltage levels.

fn9. Works, as it was tested on the device. TODO: look the official reference in the driver for it.
