Description

The Raspberry Pi 5, the fifth generation from the Raspberry Foundation, is built around the Broadcom BCM2712 quad-core processor running at 2.4 GHz on the 64-bit Arm Cortex-A76 architecture. The VideoCore VII unit gives advanced graphics performance, with 4Kp60 HDMI and HDR support. With 1 GB of LPDDR4X-4267 SDRAM there is plenty of room for multitasking. Connectivity includes dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0/BLE and USB 3.0/2.0 ports. With Gigabit Ethernet and PoE+ support, the Raspberry Pi 5 is ideal for demanding projects and advanced connectivity.

The Raspberry Pi 5 is the fifth generation produced by the Raspberry Foundation. At the heart of the Raspberry Pi 5 is the Broadcom BCM2712 processor, a 2.4 GHz quad-core based on the 64-bit Arm Cortex-A76 architecture with cryptography extensions. Each core has 512 KB of L2 cache, and there is a shared 2 MB L3 cache. The VideoCore VII graphics processing unit supports the latest technologies, including OpenGL ES 3.1 and Vulkan 1.2, for outstanding rendering performance.

The Raspberry Pi 5 has a dual 4Kp60 HDMI video output with HDR support, so two high-resolution screens can be connected for multitasking projects or immersive gaming. The board also has a 4Kp60 HEVC decoder for playing high-definition video.

With 1 GB of LPDDR4X-4267 SDRAM, the Raspberry Pi 5 has plenty of memory to handle complex applications and effortless multitasking. Networking is covered by dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0/Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), for reliable wireless connections.

The Raspberry Pi 5 also has a generous set of USB ports: two high-performance USB 3.0 ports and two USB 2.0 ports. Gigabit Ethernet with PoE+ support (a separate PoE+ adapter is required) rounds off the networking options.
