Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 progettato per resistere a condizioni ambientali estreme, apre nuove possibilità per applicazioni industriali, embedded e spaziali

Why looking up CM4 and CM5 specifications got annoying enough to automate

Raspberry Pi is expanding its product lineup with a new computer-on-a-module designed as a lower cost alternative to the Raspberry Pi CM4 or CM5. North American pricing and availability haven't been announced yet, but according to ITHome, Raspberry Pi unveiled the new Raspberry Pi Compute Module 0 (CM0) at the China International Industrial Expo this week, revealing that it will be available soon with prices ranging from about $18 to $26.

Cluster computing is a method of setting up multiple computers so they can work together like a single system. Some cluster systems are massive machines that take up space in data centers. Others are a lot smaller. But the SiPeed NanoCluster is one of the most compact cluster boards I've ever seen. When fully populated, it's a 100 x 60 x 60mm (3.94" x 2.36" x 2.36") device that supports up to 7 compute modules.

After showing up at a German trade fare earlier this month, the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 is now official. It's a 55 x 40mm (2.17" x 1.57") computer-on-a-module with the same 2.4 GHz Broadcom BC2712 ARM Cortex-A76 quad-core processor as the Raspberry Pi 5. It's currently available with up to 64GB of eMMC storage and up to 8GB of RAM, but Raspberry Pi also plans to add models with 16GB of memory sometime in 2025.

For the last few years Radxa has been selling a line of computer-on-a-module systems that are pin-to-pin compatible with the Raspberry Pi CM4 and CM5. The Radxa CM3 launched in 2021 as a model with a Rockchip RK3566 processor and Radxa introduced a CM5 with a higher-performance RK3588 the following year. Noteably absent at the time? A Radxa CM4 that would split the difference in terms of price and performance.

Libre Computer has revealed that its working on new compute modules that use the same form factor as Raspberry Pi's CM4 and CM5, although there are a few differences in the pin layout, so it's unclear if they'll work with the same carrier boards. But Libre Computer says its coming modules are more energy-efficient thanks to "low power state support with features like wake-on-LAN/IR/IO/CEC and wake-on-camera/display." These tiny computers are also powered by Amlogic processors rather than the Broadcom chips preferred by Raspberry Pi.

Argon40 is a company that sells Raspberry Pi accessories including cases, power supplies, cooling modules, and a kit that lets you transform a single-board computer into a network-attached storage device. Now Argon40 is working on its first laptop computer. But unsurprisingly it will be a laptop that's powered by a Raspberry Pi. The company hasn't released many details yet, but a p…

Here's a recent roundup of tech news from around the web.

The Milk-V Jupiter NX is a computer-on-a-module that looks like a stick of laptop memory. It's compatible with carrier boards designed for the NVIDIA Jetson NX compute module, but while NVIDIA's hardware combines an ARM-based processor with NVIDIA graphics and an AI accelerator, the Milk-V module has an 8-core RISC-V processor and a 2 TOPS NPU. Performance for this little computer will likely lag far behind what you'd get from the latest NVIDIA modules, but the Jupiter NX is the latest in a line of products from Milk-V aimed at developers looking for affordable options for getting started with RISC-V architecture.

Apple has announced a new subscription that bundles access to the latest versions of Final Cute Pro, Logic Pro, and other professional media applications with a few bonus features including AI and premium content for use with the company's Keynote, Pages, Numbers, and Freeform applications. The new Apple Creator Studio subscription launches January 28th, and it sounds a lot like the company's answer to…

We've seen a bunch of computer-on-a-module designs from Raspberry Pi, Banana Pi, NVIDIA, and others in recent years. But the ArmSoM CM1 stands out as one of the only models I've seen that can be used with or without a carrier board since it has a built-in USB-C port, MIPI-DSI display connector, and microSD card reader. It's also pretty cheap, with…

AI company Perplexity has officially entered the browser business. While the Comet web browser is based on Google's open source Chromium browser, it's built to let AI do a lot of the work for you. Instead of entering a URL or typing a search query, you can tell the browser what you're looking for by text or voice and it will try to find it for you.

What's better than a Raspberry Pi Compute Module? If you're working on projects that support parallel processing, the answer might be two Raspberry Pi Compute Modules... or maybe four of them. The Cerebro clusterboard is designed to let you attach up to four compute modules to a single baseboard. It supports Raspberry Pi CM4 and CM5 compute modules, but it 

The LattePanda Mu is a tiny computer-on-a-module that combines and Intel Alder Lake-0N processor with memory, storage, and I/O capabilities onto a package that measures just 60 x 69.6mm (about 2.36" x 2.74"). When LattePanda first launched the module in 2024 it was only available with an Intel N100 quad-core processor. Now the company has introduced a higher-performance model with an Intel Core i3-N305 octa-core chip with support for higher CPU frequencies and speedier graphics.

Au printemps 2023, 9To5 Mac avait déniché dans le code d’une bêta d’iOS 16.4 une mention à un « ComputeModule ». Il s’agissait manifestement de nouveaux produits Apple en cours de développement, sans que l’on sache très bien quoi. Plusieurs hypothèses avaient alors été émises, dont des modules additionnels qui pourraient servir à un futur casque de réalité augmentée (le Vision Pro n’avait pas encore été dévoilé) ou bien dans un Mac Pro, ou encore un module similaire à ceux de la fondation Raspberry, pourquoi pas pour de la domotique.
