The Raspberry Pi is a single-board computer developed in the UK by the Raspberry Pi Foundation.
The design is based around a Broadcom BCM2835 SoC, which includes an ARM1176JZF-S 700 MHz processor, VideoCore IV GPU, and 128 or 256 MB of RAM. The design does not include internal memory, instead relying on an SD card for booting and long-term storage.
Specifications
| Model A | Model B | |
|---|---|---|
| Target price: | USD $25 (GBP £16) | USD $35 (GBP £22) |
| SoC: | Broadcom BCM2835 (CPU + GPU + DSP + SDRAM) | |
| CPU: | 700 MHz ARM1176JZF-S core (ARM11 family) | |
| GPU: | Broadcom VideoCore IV, OpenGL ES 2.0, 1080p30 h.264/MPEG-4 AVC high-profile decode | |
| Memory (SDRAM): | 128 MB | 256 MB |
| USB 2.0 ports: | 1 | 2 (via integrated USB hub) |
| Video outputs: | Composite RCA, HDMI | |
| Audio outputs: | 3.5 mm jack, HDMI | |
| Onboard storage: | SD / MMC / SDIO card slot | |
| Onboard network: | None | 10/100 Ethernet |
| Low-level peripherals: | 8 x GPIO, UART, I²C bus, SPI bus with two chip selects, +3.3 V, +5 V, Ground (GPIO connector is not assembled on the board, see below for details) | |
| Power ratings: | 500 mA (2.5 W) | 700 mA (3.5 W) |
| Power source: | 5 volt via MicroUSB or optional GPIO header | |
| Size: | 85.60 × 53.98 mm (3.370 × 2.125 in) | |
| Supported operating systems: | Raspbmc, Debian GNU/Linux, Fedora, Arch Linux | |
- Notes
- The 26-pin GPIO connector is not assembled on the board. The end-user must purchase and solder a 13x2 pin header with 0.1-inch (2.54mm) spacing. The pin header can be either a straight pin header, mounted on either the bottom or the top, (to connect to a "daughterboard") or it can be a right-angle shrouded box connector for use with a ribbon cable.
- Though the Model A doesn't have an RJ45 Ethernet port, it can connect to a network by using a user supplied USB Ethernet or Wi-Fi adapter. Generic USB keyboards and mice are compatible with the Raspberry Pi.
XBMC for Raspberry Pi
Team-XBMC developers are working on porting XBMC to the Raspberry Pi using beta boards supplied by the RPi Foundation.
