Product description: Raspberry Pi 5 4 GB
Raspberry Pi 5 version equipped with 4 GB of LPDDR4X-4267 RAM . The new Broadcom BCM2712 ARM Cortex-A76 64-bit quad-core processor offers a clock speed of 2.4 GHz . The fifth version of the popular raspberry has two microHDMI connectors, two USB 3.0 connectors and two USB 2.0 connectors, a USB C power connector. The Raspberry Pi 5 also has two 4-line MIPI DSI / CSI camera/display connectors and a PCI Express 2.0 connector. , fan connector, UART and RTC battery connectors, as well as the power button . The board also has dual-band WiFi 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, Bluetooth 5 BLE and an Ethernet port 1000 Mb/s with the possibility of powering via PoE (PoE+ HAT pad required). The board still has a 40-pin GPIO connector (2x20 pin, 2.54 mm pitch) and a microSD memory card connector with the operating system. In addition to the standard mounting holes, you can also find holes dedicated to mounting an official radiator with a fan.

Changes in Raspberry Pi 5
Characteristic | Description |
---|---|
Several versions | Raspberry Pi 5 is available in several versions differing in the amount of RAM: 1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB. |
BCM2712 processor | The Broadcom BMC2712 Quad-Core ARM Cortex-A76 64-bit chip clocked at 2.4 GHz is 60% faster than its predecessor. |
PCIe 2.0 connector | The fifth version of Raspberry Pi is equipped with a fast PCI Express 2.0 connector, allowing you to connect peripherals with fast data transfer. |
RTC battery connector | A dedicated connector allows you to connect a real-time battery (RTC) to maintain the current date and time. |
UART connector | There is a UART connector on the board to which you can connect a debugger. |
Two CSI/DSI connectors | Raspberry Pi 5 is equipped with two 4-line MIPI CSI / DSI connectors in the mini 22-pin format with a 0.5 mm pitch, to which you can connect a camera and a display or two cameras / two displays. |
ON/OFF button | The Raspberry Pi minicomputer can now be turned on/off using the power button. The button can also be used to wake the raspberry from deep sleep mode. Holding the button for a long time cuts off the power to the minicomputer. |
Raspberry Pi RP1 chip | The RP1 chip was designed specifically by the Raspberry Pi Foundation to support I/O interfaces, relieving the minicomputer's main processor, making Raspberry Pi 5 significantly more efficient than its older predecessors. |
Layout of joints | The outline of the board remains the same as in previous versions, but the layout of the interfaces has changed. |
Image and sound in Raspberry Pi 5
The fifth version of Raspberry Pi is equipped with two microHDMI connectors through which you can transmit both image and sound even in 4K resolution and 60 fps. Raspberry Pi 5 has two 4-line MIPI CSI / DSI sockets to which you can connect two screens with the ability to display images in 4K resolution or two cameras. Raspberry is equipped with a VideoCore VII GPU clocked at 800 MHz. CSI / DSI connectors have 22 lines in a 0.5 mm pitch , therefore, in order to continue using the existing accessories, it is necessary to use an adapter.
Raspberry Pi OS operating system
Raspberry Pi 5 is equipped with a microSD memory card slot (with support for SDR104 high-speed mode), from which the Raspberry Pi OS system is launched. The system can also be launched from the minicomputer's USB port. Our offer also includes memory cards with the appropriate operating system pre-loaded, ready to work straight out of the packaging. Raspberry Pi 5 runs Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm and above.
Communication in Raspberry Pi 5
The fifth version of raspberry still has popular interfaces known from standard PC computers. The most important of them are:
- 2 microHDMI connectors with the ability to connect two screens simultaneously and display images in 4K resolution.
- WiFi module - dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz 802.11b/g/n/ac system.
- Bluetooth LE module - popular wireless Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) 5.0 standard.
- 4 USB connectors - Raspberry Pi 5 has 2 USB 2.0 connectors and 2 USB 3.0 connectors with support for 5 Gb/s operations simultaneously, to which peripheral devices can be connected.
- Ethernet socket - enables a wired connection to the Internet with a speed of up to 1000 Mb/s. You can also power the raspberry via the Ethernet socket (PoE+ HAT required).
- GPIO - 40-pin general-purpose input/output, which includes interfaces such as I2C, SPI and UART. Used, among others, for operating LEDs, buttons, motor controllers and much more.
Raspberry Pi 5 power supply
The Raspberry Pi 5 minicomputer is equipped with a USB Type-C port for powering the unit. The fifth version of the popular raspberry requires a power supply with a supply voltage of 5 V and a current efficiency of at least 5 A. Our offer includes original power supplies and branded replacements compatible with Raspberry Pi. The maximum current efficiency of USB ports is 600 mA by default, but when a USB C power supply with Power Delivery function is detected, the limit will be automatically increased to 1.6 A.
