The Raspberry Pi Foundation is celebrating its fifth birthday. Just in time for the anniversary is a revised version of the IoT developer board Raspberry Pi Zero with WLAN and Bluetooth module to the start.For five years now, the compact ARM developer boards from the Raspberry Pi Foundation have caused a sensation in the tech scene. The Raspberry Pi Zero W is now launching a revised version of its compact developer board, which is now equipped with WLAN 802.11n and Bluetooth 4.0 as standard.
On the other hardware of the Pi Zero, however, nothing changes. The board is still equipped with a single core Broadcom chipset, which clocks with a maximum of 1 GHz and accesses 512 MB of memory. With this equipment, the Pi Zero W is still 40 percent brighter than the Raspberry Pi of the first generation. In addition, the IoT board has a MicroSD card slot as well as connectors for mini HDMI, micro-USB and GPIO with 40 pins. An Ethernet connection is still not installed. An official case is now available for the tiny baby, which protects the Pi Zero components from dirt and damage.For the connection of peripherals such as a mouse, keyboard or monitor an adapter kit is available, which has a mini-HDMI to HDMI adapter, a Micro-B-USB to a USB-cable (female) as well A 2 x 20 GPIO header.
In Germany, the Raspberry Pi Zero W is also available at the official partner Pi3g.
Raspberry Pi: Between hobby cellar and industry
The Pi boards have always been the basis for projects of hobbyists, but also companies rely on the economical and cost-effective systems for their IoT and Smart Home products. For example, the display professional NEC has presented a series of new screens that support the connection of the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3. This makes it possible to realize cost-effective digital signage systems.
