Originally Published 1 year ago — by The Register
Raspberry Pi has launched the Compute Module 5 (CM5), offering significant performance improvements over its predecessor, the CM4, while maintaining a similar form factor. The CM5 features a BCM2712 Cortex-A76 64-bit SoC, with memory options up to 16 GB of SDRAM and up to 64 GB of eMMC flash memory. It includes USB 3.0 ports, replacing the previous CSI-2 and DSI ports, and requires additional cooling due to increased heat at peak performance. Prices start at $45 for the CM5Lite version, with the top model priced at $95. The launch follows a series of new Raspberry Pi products, including a wireless Pi Pico 2 and an AI HAT+.
