The Raspberry Pi is a single-board computer developed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation, designed to teach computer science and programming. It utilizes a Broadcom BCM2835 SoC, featuring a 700MHz ARM processor and a video core 4 GPU, along with various ports for connectivity including GPIO, CSI camera, HDMI, USB, and DSI display. Caution is advised when using GPIO pins due to their sensitivity, and additional driver circuits may be necessary for high-current devices.

Broadcom BCM2835 System on a Chip
(SoC) • Creator – Raspberry Pi Foundation • A single-board computer that could be used to teach computer science and programming to high sch • Raspberry Pi relies on a Broadcom BCM2835 System on a Chip (SoC). An SoC is an integrated circuit that has all the components necessary to power a computer. On the Raspberry Pi, the Broadcom chip contains a 700MHz ARM processor and a video core 4 GPU.ool students in developing countries. GPIO • These pins could be used to read electrical impulses from circuits and give electrical signals for operating circuits in programs. • When utilizing GPIO, be cautious because they are easily destroyed and require 3.3 V logic. • A driver circuit should be used to control auxiliary devices that demand more than 20mA current: relays, inductances, and high-brightness LED lights are examples of such devices. CSI Camera Port
• The CSI camera port is a connection that
connects a Raspberry Pi video module to the Raspberry Pi. Standard web cameras would not work because they typically only have a USB port. HDMI / USB
• These ports connect the Pi to an HDMI display,
USB connections like mice and keyboards, and a network connection for internet connectivity. • Some Raspberry Pi models have built-in Wi-Fi, the ethernet port is rarely used. Display Port
• The Raspberry Pi can link to a serial screen
similar to those in tablets via the DSI display port. • These display modules come with touch controllers and are available in a variety of sizes.
