Will the Explorer pHAT (PIM137) work with Raspberry Pi 3 (RPI-007)? The product description only mentions the other Raspberry Pis, but not 3.

Thanks

It should work with any Pi that has the 40 Pi GPIO. I can’t think of any conceivable reason why it wouldn’t. Just had a look and this is what it says, " •Compatible with Raspberry Pi 3, 2, B+, A+, Zero, and Zero W". So yes will work with a 3B.

Thanks. I guess the page I was looking at has not been updated yet.

“Though designed to match the format of the Raspberry Pi Zero it is compatible with all 40-pin GPIO Raspberry Pi variants (2/B+/A+/Zero).”
