GPIO Write

Set GPIO pin status

Add-On Required: This feature requires the Simulink Support Package for Raspberry Pi Hardware add-on.

  • Raspberry Pi GPIO Write icon

Libraries:
Simulink Support Package for Raspberry Pi Hardware / Basic

Description

Use the GPIO Write block to set the logical value of a digital pin of your Raspberry Pi® board.

Warning

You can damage your target hardware by:

  • Exceeding the maximum voltage that can be applied to GPIO pins.

  • Shorting a GPIO pin to ground.

  • Shorting a GPIO pin with high voltage to another GPIO pin with low voltage.

  • Connecting a GPIO pin to a voltage source greater than the maximum voltage.

  • Exceeding the maximum current by driving multiple GPIO pins high simultaneously.
