https://pinout.xyz

A somewhat interactive GPIO pinout for the Raspberry Pi.

Not so much out of sheer joy, but because I needed it.

It started as a basic way to explore each pin and its available alt-functions.

Listings of add-on board pinouts were added later for people who want to use multiple boards- or perhaps connect them to a different host.

Just wanted to say a big thank you for this site. I used it when trying to figure out how to hook up an RFID reader to the Pi. It was suprisingly hard to find the pinout, but finally found your site. This is what I put together: https://bitbucket.org/kruffin/rfid_play

Oh, wow! I used this website as a reference fairly heavily when getting started with RPis, and still use it quite often (the WiringPi diagram in particular came in handy many, many times as there a whole lot of pins to it)
