Description
The Raspberry Pi 5 builds on the success of the Raspberry Pi 4. Compared to its predecessor, it offers a remarkable increase in CPU performance by 2 to 3 times and a significant improvement in GPU performance. Furthermore, significant progress has been made in camera quality, display, and the USB interface.
These impressive interface improvements were realized with the help of the RP1 I/O controller chip, internally developed by Raspberry Pi.
