Overview

Welcome to the latest generation of Raspberry Pi: the everything computer.

Featuring a 64-bit quad-core Arm Cortex-A76 processor running at 2.4GHz, Raspberry Pi 5

delivers a 2–3× increase in CPU performance relative to Raspberry Pi 4. Alongside a

substantial uplift in graphics performance from an 800MHz VideoCore VII GPU; dual

4Kp60 display output over HDMI; and state-of-the-art camera support from a rearchitected

Raspberry Pi Image Signal Processor, it provides a smooth desktop experience for

consumers, and opens the door to new applications for industrial customers.

For the first time, this is a full-size Raspberry Pi computer using silicon built in-house

at Raspberry Pi. The RP1 “southbridge” provides the bulk of the I/O capabilities for

Raspberry Pi 5, and delivers a step change in peripheral performance and functionality.

Aggregate USB bandwidth is more than doubled, yielding faster transfer speeds to external

UAS drives and other high-speed peripherals; the dedicated two-lane 1Gbps MIPI camera

and display interfaces present on earlier models have been replaced by a pair of four-lane

1.5Gbps MIPI transceivers, tripling total bandwidth, and supporting any combination of

up to two cameras or displays; peak SD card performance is doubled, through support for

the SDR104 high-speed mode; and for the first time the platform exposes a single-lane

PCI Express 2.0 interface, providing support for high-bandwidth peripherals.
