Colour-coded GPIO pins that make locating that ground or power connection you need super simple!
These 40-pin 2x20 male headers from our friends at The Pi Hut can be used on a Raspberry Pi Zero and are colour-coded for your prototyping convenience.
You'll never have to search for a ground pin again!
The colour coding is nice and simple:
- Red = 5V
- Yellow = 3V3
- Black = GND
- Blue = DNC (Reversed I2C)
For hard-mode try installing the header the wrong way round and throwing away your normal pin reference! ;-)

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- GPIO
- General-purpose input/output pins are microcontroller pins you can set in software to read signals, switch devices on and off, or connect to peripherals. The number of GPIO pins matters because it limits how many buttons, LEDs, sensors, and other parts you can wire directly to the board.
- Headers
- Rows of metal pins used to plug a module into a breadboard or connect it with jumper wires. Pre-soldered headers make the module easier to use straight away without needing to solder the pins yourself.
- I2C
- I2C is a two-wire communication bus used by many sensors and small modules. It matters because several I2C devices can share the same two wires, but each device needs a compatible address and your controller must support I2C.
