More than just an upgrade, the Raspberry Pi 5 represents a major evolution of the Raspberry Pi platform, featuring a redesigned architecture that delivers up to three times the performance of its predecessor, the Raspberry Pi 4.
Powered by a high-performance Broadcom BCM2712 quad-core processor running at 2.4GHz and equipped with 16GB of LPDDR4X memory, the Raspberry Pi 5 delivers impressive performance for computing, artificial intelligence, software development, robotics, IoT, and embedded systems projects.
Its new RP1 I/O controller significantly improves peripheral connectivity and increases USB bandwidth, enabling faster data transfers with external devices. It also features a PCIe 2.0 interface for connecting compatible expansion peripherals.
