Hello.. i m designing a board using STM32F767, could anyone advise what should be done to those unused pins? Ground it or set it to ERC on Altium?

Hello @HMSEdinburge 

For the unused GPIO, they should not be left free. I/Os should be set to “0” or “1”(pull-up or pull-down to the unused I/O pins.). AN4661 can give you more details about the design rules for HWs based on the STM32F7.

Best Regards.

I'm not a Altium expert, but as i said before, grounding or setting to 1 the unused GPIOs (using external or internal pull-up or pull-down) should do the job.

Best Regards.
