Overview
• Introduction toRaspberry pi
• History, Features and Technology
• Talking to the Hardware
• Q & A
8.
Introduction
• The RaspberryPi is a credit-card sized
computer
• Its is a fully featured micro-computer
squashed onto a circuit board.
9.
What is RaspberryPi?
• The Raspberry pi is a small computer
system built onto a tiny circuit board.
• Measuring approximately9cm x 5.5cm
10.
History
• The RaspberryPi is the work of the Raspberry Pi
Foundation, a charitable organisation.
• UK registered charity (No. 1129409), May 2009
• It's supported by the University of Cambridge
Computer Laboratory and tech firm Broadcomm
11.
Features
• Ultra low-cost(Model A $25, Model B $35)
• Ultra low-power ~1W
• Credit-card sized, fanless, instant start-up
• Complete easy-to-program computer
12.
Technology
• The RaspberryPi has a Broadcom BCM2835
system on a chip (SoC),which includes an
ARM1176JZF-S 700 MHz processor
• Video Core IV GPU
• originally shipped with 256 megabytes of RAM,
later upgraded to 512MB.
• It does not include a built-in hard disk , but uses
an SD card for booting and long-term storage.
13.
Hardware
• 10/100 BaseTEthernet socket
• HDMI socket
• USB 2.0 socket
• RCA video socket
• SD card socket
• Powered from microUSB socket
• 3.5mm audio out jack
• Header footprint for camera connection
Applications
• It canmake your Old TV in to a smart TV. (You can
play Videos, 3D Games, Music, Browse Internet and
much more.
• Raspberry Pi can Act as Full HD 1080p Media Player.
• Its a Mini Computer which just cost Rs.2,350/-
• You can connect a Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse
and use it as a normal computer.
21.
Raspberry Pi VsAkash
• Aakash is a low-cost tablet, and Raspberry Pi is an
ultra-cheap, customizable computer.
• The processor in the Raspberry Pi has about twice
the graphics performance of the iPhone 4S and
even bests Nvidia’s Tegra 2.
• Both tech innovations have education and
economy as their central goals.
22.
Disadvantages
• It doesnot have a Hard Disk associated with it for
permanent storage pf files,we have to connect one
externally or have to use SD card for the purpose.
• The RAM is a POP package on top of the SoC, so
it’s not removable or swappable.
• There is no Real Time Clock associated with the
board. Adding an RTC is expensive. You can add
one yourself using the GPIO pins.
