Raspberry Pi4 - 4GB and 8GB Models
The Raspberry Pi 4 was released in June 2019. It boasts a 1.5GHZ 64bit quad core ARM cortex-A72 processor, onboard 802.11ac Wi-Fi, full gigabit Ethernet, Bluetooth 5, two USB 2.0 ports, 2 USB 3.0 ports 1-8GB RAM, and Dual Monitor support through its two Micro HDMI (type D) ports capable of up to 4k Resolution.
- Broadcom BCM2711, Quad core Cortex-A72 (ARM v8) 64-bit SoC @ 1.5GHz.
- 1GB, 2GB, 4GB or 8GB LPDDR4-3200 SDRAM (depending on model).
- 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz IEEE 802.11ac wireless, Bluetooth 5.0, BLE Gigabit Ethernet.
- 2 USB 3.0 ports; 2 USB 2.0 ports.
- Raspberry Pi standard 40 pin GPIO header (fully backwards compatible with previous boards).

Raspberry Pi3 B+
This is an older model of the Raspberry Pi, but it is still very effective.
- 1.4GHz 64-bit quad-core processor
- Dual-band wireless LAN
- Bluetooth 4.2/BLE
- Ethernet, and Power-over-Ethernet support (with separate PoE HAT)
- 1GB RAM

Raspberry Pi Zero
The Raspberry Pi Zero is probably one the smallest single board computers ever made 30x66x5mm. It was designed to be as cheap as possible and before the chip shortage one of these boards could be bought for as little as $10. In 2017 the Raspberry Pi Zero W was released giving the Pi Zero Wi-Fi connectivity, making this little board even more capable. Amazingly this can run the Raspberry Pi OS 32-bit operating system with no problem. The board only has a single core and 512MB Ram so don’t expect to be running multiple intensive tasks at once though, but still this tiny board is very surprising.
- Raspberry Pi Zero W Motherboard Only.
- SoC: Broadcom BCM2835–CPU: ARM11 running at 1GHz–RAM: 512MB.
- Wireless: 2.4GHz 802.11n wireless LAN (Wi-Fi), Bluetooth: Bluetooth Classic 4.1 and Bluetooth LE.
- Dimensions: 65mm × 30mm × 5mm.

Raspberry Pi Pico
The Pico is a controller board just like the Arduino. The Pico is small in size, and its pretty cheap. Meganano hasn’t got around to writing guides for the Pico yet even though we have some already, but we will get to this great little board soon.
- Low-Cost and High-Performance Raspberry Pi Pico incorporates Raspberry Pi’s own RP2040 microcontroller chip, with dual-core Arm Cortex M0+ processor running up to 133 MHz, embedded 264KB of SRAM and 2MB of on-board Flash memory.
- Multiple Software Support – Pico has rich and complete software support, it comes with a complete Raspberry Pi official C/C++ SDK, Micro python SDK.
- Rich Hardware Interface – Raspberry Pi Pico has 26 × multi-function GPIO pins, 2 × SPI, 2 × I2C, 2 × UART, 3 × 12-bit ADC, 16 × controllable PWM channels.
- Custom Peripheral Support – 8 × Programmable I/O (PIO) state machines for custom peripheral support.
- Build Project in Tiny Size – Only 2.1cm*5.1cm (as small as your thumb). Pico has been designed to use either soldered 0.1″ pin-headers or can be used as a surface-mountable ‘module’.

Raspberry Pi Pico W
Raspberry Pi Pico W with Pre-soldered Headers.
- Raspberry Pi Pico W is a small, quick, and an adaptable board built using the RP2040, a microcontroller chip manufactured by Raspberry Pi.
- It has an integrated Infineon CYW43439 wireless chip, The CYW43439 supports IEEE 802.11 b/g/n wireless LAN.
- The Raspberry Pi Pico W featured with dual-core ARM Cortex M0+ processor, flexible clock running up to 133 MHz.
- Apart from the addition of wireless networking, Raspberry Pi Pico W is very similar to Raspberry Pi Pico and, like all RP2040-based boards, can be easily reprogrammed over USB from a Raspberry Pi or other computer using the C/C++ SDK or the official MicroPython port.
- Raspberry Pi Pico W comes with pre soldered headers for improved convenience in hobbyist and industrial applications.
