Raspberry Pi 5 gets cheaper 2GB family member
It would be remiss of me not to flag a new Raspberry Pi board on Gadget Master. So, welcome a new version of the current flagship, Raspberry Pi 5, which now comes with 2GB of RAM.
Lower cost Raspberry Pi 5
A 2Gbyte Raspberry Pi 5 has been launched, priced at $50 compared with $60 for the 4Gbyte version. As well as reduced memory size, cost-saving comes from changing the main processor IC. 4 and 8Gbyte models have the 16nm Broadcom BCM2712C1, which has quad 2.4GHz Arm Cortex-A76 cores. “Alongside the features required to power a Raspberry Pi, it also contains ...
Farnell offers Raspberry Pi Pico 2
Farnell is now offering the tiny, fast, and versatile Raspberry Pi Pico 2 which retains the footprint of the original Pico, while benefiting from the performance uplift delivered by the RP2350 microcontroller, designed by Raspberry Pi. When compared to its predecessor, the RP2040 microcontroller launched in 2021, RP2350 offers a 150MHz system clock (versus 133MHz); dual Arm Cortex-M33 cores (versus ...
Raspberry Pi makes RISC-V more accessible
In choosing to put RISC-V cores on its new microcontroller – fear not, there are Arm Coretex-M33 cores too – Raspberry Pi will be helping put this architecture on the map. Proc0 and Proc1 can independently be set to be an Arm Cortex-M33 or a RISC-V core at boot Not that RISC-V is not already climbing rapidly in the instruction ...
RP2350 available by year end, with flash-inclusive option
Raspberry Pi’s RP2350, its second-generation microcontroller, will be available by the end of the year in flash-less and flash-inclusive forms, in two packages: RP2350A QFN60 no flash $0.80 RP2350B QFN80 no flash $0.90 RP2354A QFN60 2Mbyte flash $1.00 RP2354B QFN80 2Mbyte flash $1.10 QFN60 types are 7 x 7mm and have 30 GPIOs, QFN80 types are 10 x 10mm and ...
New Raspberry Pi MCU – RP2350 – Risc-V, Arm and security
Raspberry Pi has announced its second microcontroller, the RP2350, adding two RISC-V cores alongside improved Arm cores, more ram, and security. Not initially available on its own (ETA pre-year-end), it will first ship as part of the Raspberry Pi Pico 2 single-board microcontroller (right) – which is the same 21 x 51mm size as the original Pico, and priced from ...
12Top/s octa-core AI single board computer with 5G and Wi-Fi 6E
San Francisco-based Particle has announced an octa-core Raspberry-Pi shaped single-board computer built around a Qualcomm Snapdragon Kryo CPU with 12Top/s neural processing capability, and equipped with 5G and Wi-Fi 6E comms. Called Tachyon, and aimed at AI edge processing, it is designed to run Ubuntu across its four 1.9GHz Arm cores, three 2.4GHz cores and single 2.7GHz core. Particle describes ...
