Vin and ARef unconnected

(I hope this hasn't been asked 1000+ times. I can't find the answer if it has, possibly because it displays a lack of understanding. :roll_eyes:)

In the context of getting some PCBs made, onto which I'll be mounting a Nano Every:

Is there any benefit to tying ARef high or low if unused?

If the Nano is being powered with 5v (regulated) at Pin27, presumably Vin should be unconnected?

Connect it to Vcc, this will help keep noise out. I prefer Vin because of the additional filtering but that is my preference not a requirement.

If you change your mind, and decide you want to use Aref, then it won't work if you have got it connected to GND.
