- The peripherial system remained unchanged to maintain compatibility with the previous version
The introduction of minicomputer Raspberry Pi.
The picture and sound
The Raspberry Pi has HDMI version 1.4, through which you can send picture and sound. In addition, the tile was equipped with a 4-pin Jack 3.5 mm to which you can connect headphones, speakers or display video through a standard RCA Composite. In our assortment you will find appriopate wire Jack - RCA.
Operating system
A drive of the raspberry is a microSD memory card. The operating system can be uploaded via the computer with the reader. In our store are available cards with the installed NOOBs software which with the first activation enables choosing from the systems: Raspbian, Pidora Openelec, RaspBMC, RISC OS, Aarch Linux. Microsoft promises the future release of Windows 10, which will work with Raspberry Pi 2.
Communication
Raspberry has the main communication interfaces, which can be found in office computers of PC class. In addition to the previously listed connectors for audio and video, the user has at his disposal:
- four of the USB connectors, to which can be connected, for example, a mouse, a keyboard, a wi-fi card or USB flash drive. If you find that the slots are too short, you can increase their number usingan external USB HUB.
- Ethernet slot, that is the ability to directly connect to the LOCAL network
- GPIO- outputs/inputs with general purpose that can be used to control the LEDs, buttons, drivers of engines. Among them are the pins supportting interfaces: I2C, SPI and UART. From version B+, the GPIO number was increased from 26 to 40.
Power
As a power source, the system uses the microUSB connector. In practice, this means that to run Rasbperry Pi, you can use the charger for mobile phones with capacity of at least 1 A.
Accessories compatible with version 2
The extensions, housings and the pads that cooperate with the version of B+, will also be compatible with a new release 2. In our offer, you will also findbooks about the Raspberry Pi.
