What is Raspberry Pi ?


Raspberry Pi, a computer smaller than a credit card, has become a real hit! The latest third generation of the famous Malinka - RaspberryPi 3 Model B+ is a minicomputer with enough power for desktop applications. Thanks to the integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, it is no longer necessary to buy USB wireless modules.


Features of the Raspberry Pi 3B+

On the 85.6×56×21 mm board there is a new central unit - SoC Broadcom BCM2837B0 chip , with four 64-bit ARM Cortex-A53 cores , at 1.2 GHz. The latest Raspberry is equipped with integrated graphics, Videocore IV, clocked faster - 400 MHz.
The minicomputer also has a built-in 1 GB of 900 MHz LPDDR2 RAM and a radio chip. Cypress CYW43455 which provides dual-band (2.4 GHz / 5 GHz) Wi-Fi 802.11n/ac and Bluetooth 4 .2/LE. The board is also equipped with a USB/Gigabit Ethernet controller (100/1000 Mbit/s) SMSC LAN7515 with PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) function using a dedicated overlay and four USB 2.0 ports. It has a large HDMI output and an audio/video minijack output that is extremely useful for desktop applications. As standard, the minijack is equipped with CSI camera connector, a serial interface for DSI display, and a microUSB power connector. It is of course equipped with a 40-pin GPIO connector, thanks to which Malina has become so popular for electronics and control purposes. The storage is a microSD card that needs to be purchased.

Additives to Raspberry PI 3B+

Raspberry can be equipped with a useful housing available in several colours. Dedicated accessories are also available: HD(1080p) camera, capacitive touch screen, overlay for power over Ethernet and many sensors supporting educational projects.


Why buy Raspberry PI 3B+

Raspberry gives us the opportunity to work with the latest version of Raspbian software, but through the NOOBS installer it is possible to install two other operating systems: OSMC_Pi2 (an easy-to-use multimedia center) and Windows 10 IoT Core (for users used to Microsoft's environment).


Raspberry Pi 3 model B+ can be bought in our shop for 189 PLN. The older RaspberryPi 3B model is also available in the shop's offer and is still supported by the Raspberry organization.
