Raspberry Pi 5 added to Mouser global menu

Building on the success of the Raspberry Pi 4, the Pi 5 single board computer (SBC) delivers a 2x – 3x increase in CPU performance, a significant uplift in GPU performance, and noticeable improvements to display, camera, and USB interfacing.

The Pi 5 SBC offers an affordable, easy-to-use solution for applications including home automation, industrial automation, edge computing, robotics, and surveillance.

The Raspberry Pi Raspberry Pi 5 Single Board Computer is the first full-size Raspberry Pi computer to be built with silicon developed in-house.

The RP1 I/O controller chip supports improved interfacing, as well as faster transfer speeds to external USB-attached SCSI (UAS) drives and other high-speed peripherals. The new SBC is based on the Broadcom BCM2712  quad-core Arm Cortex-A76, 64-bit system-on-chip (SoC) at 2.4 GHz.

It includes a MicroSD card slot with support for high-speed SDR104 mode, as well as a high-speed single-lane PCI Express 2.0 interface, offering support for high-bandwidth peripherals. The SBC features two USB 3.0 ports supporting simultaneous 5 Gbps operation, in addition to two USB 2.0 ports.

Also included is a VideoCore VII GPU supporting OpenGL ES3.1, with a Dual 4Kp60 HDMI display output with HDR support.

Two four-lane 1.5 Gbps MIPI transceivers enable users to connect up to two cameras or displays.

The Pi 5 is offered in 4 GB and 8 GB variants and features Bluetooth 5.0 with Bluetooth Low Energy, dual-band Wi-Fi, and Gigabit Ethernet, providing users with the flexibility to choose between wired and wireless connectivity. The Pi 5 also extends support for Power over Ethernet (PoE), enabling it to be powered via Ethernet alongside a USB Type-C port for alternative power sources.

The Raspberry Pi single board computer is now available from authorised distributor Mouser Electronics in the Americas, EMEA and Asia-Pacific regions.
