I do have 2 Serial Pi boards V1.0 (not plus neither zero) and I can't find any reference to them in the site

Are they compatible with Raspi 2 model B or 3 model B? Any link to more detailed info?

Thanks a lot in advance and apologies if I missed something abvious

Hello Alejandro

You can find the information on the original Serial Pi in our knowledge base at /kb/article/1045/serial-pi-discontinued

The Serial Pi is compatible with the newer Raspberry Pi models. The main difference between the original Serial Pi and the newer models is the change to a 40-pin GPIO connector and the PCB was changed to the newer hat specifications.

If you want to the Serial Pi on a Raspberry Pi 3, 3+ or Zero W you will need to go through our Raspberry Pi Serial Port Tutorial to remap the UART port as by default it is used for the BlueTooth device.
