# Working with GPIO
-GPIO (General-Purpose Input/Output) – is a type of Raspberry Pi's pins, with programmatically adjustable and measurable voltage. On some of the pins there also is hardware implemented PWM.
+A GPIO (General-Purpose Input/Output) pin is a programmable digital signal pin on a circuit board or a microcontroller that may act as an input or an output. Raspberry Pi has a set of easily accessible GPIO pins, some of which have hardware PWM.
> **Info** Use the [pinout](https://pinout.xyz) for figuring out, which Raspberry Pi's pins support GPIO and PWM.

## Connecting servos
-Most of servos are controlled with PWM signal. Extreme positions of servos are reached with signal widths approximately equal to 1000 and 2000 µs. Values for a specific servo can be determined experimentally.
