[SOLVED] Raspberry pi 1 26 pins and corresponding pins in Pi 3B

[deepakdeshp]

Hello,
Pi 1 model has 26 pins while Pi 3b has 40. So is it that the first 26 pins of Pi 3B correspond to the 26 pins of Pi 1?

Almost. Issuing pinout shows the differences, here place side by side using the paste command:

Physical pins 3 & 5 have different functions now.

It depends if you pi 1B is a revision 1 or a revision 2 as several pins changed between them,

the revision 2 has the same first 26 gpio pins as the pi1B, 2B, 3B & 3B+



To figure out which you have run

Code: Select all

 cat /proc/cpuinfo
 

which will give the following results

Code: Select all

pi@TestPi:~ $  cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor       : 0
model name      : ARMv6-compatible processor rev 7 (v6l)
BogoMIPS        : 697.95
Features        : half thumb fastmult vfp edsp java tls
CPU implementer : 0x41
CPU architecture: 7
CPU variant     : 0x0
CPU part        : 0xb76
CPU revision    : 7

Hardware        : BCM2835
Revision        : 0002
Serial          : 000000003d0740f5

now if you look at the revision number which in this case is 0002 you can use this chart to figure out which revision you have



in this example I ran the command on my early pi 1B revision 1 with 256MB of ram.

if you are running raspbian jessie , stretch or buster you can also get the revision by running

Code: Select all

cat /proc/device-tree/model

which when run on the same pi 1 B as used for the above gives this result

Code: Select all

Raspberry Pi Model B Rev 1

In that case there are some differences between your gpio and that of the first 26 pins of the 40 pin gpio.

you need to use this pin layout for your pi.



As pins 3,5 & 13 are different gpio numbers.
