In 2014, the Raspberry Pi Foundation released a board with an improved design, Raspberry Pi Model B+.The first-generation Raspberry Pi Model B was released in February 2012, followed by the simpler and cheaper Model A.Raspberry Pi SBCs feature a Broadcom system on a chip (SoC) with an integrated ARM-compatible central processing unit (CPU) and on-chip graphics processing unit (GPU), while Raspberry Pi Pico has a RP2040 system on chip with an integrated ARM-compatible central processing unit (CPU). There are three series of Raspberry Pi, and several generations of each have been released. In 2015, the Raspberry Pi surpassed the ZX Spectrum in unit sales, becoming the best-selling British computer. Most Pis are made in a Sony factory in Pencoed, Wales, while others are made in China and Japan.

The Foundation was rededicated as an educational charity for promoting the teaching of basic computer science in schools and developing countries. It is typically used by computer and electronic hobbyists, due to its adoption of the HDMI and USB standards.Īfter the release of the second board type, the Raspberry Pi Foundation set up a new entity, named Raspberry Pi Trading, and installed Eben Upton as CEO, with the responsibility of developing technology. It is widely used in many areas, such as for weather monitoring, because of its low cost, modularity, and open design.

The original model became more popular than anticipated, selling outside its target market for uses such as robotics. The Raspberry Pi project originally leaned toward the promotion of teaching basic computer science in schools. Raspberry Pi ( / p aɪ/) is a series of small single-board computers (SBCs) developed in the United Kingdom by the Raspberry Pi Foundation in association with Broadcom.
