The Compute Module 5 is an enhanced system-on-module (SoM) that directly addresses industrial requirements while maintaining mechanical compatibility with its predecessor. It adds improved capabilities for AI, machine vision, industrial automation, smart homes, healthcare monitoring and other embedded applications.
The Raspberry Pi CM5 features a BCM2712 quad-core Cortex -A76 (Arm v8) 64-bit system-on-chip (SoC) with a VideoCore VII GPU and support for OpenGL ES 3.1 and Vulkan 1.3., dual 4Kp60 HDMI display output.
In addition, there's an optional onboard dual-band Wi-Fi module based on the Cypress CYW43455 (which supports 2.4GHz and 5GHz IEEE 802.11 b/g/n/ac wireless), Bluetooth 5.0 and BLE, and two USB 3.0 interfaces supporting simultaneous 5Gbps operation.
These modules also support two 4-lane MIPI interfaces, where each MIPI interface can either be DSI (Display) or CSI (Camera).
The Raspberry Pi CM5 is available with multiple eMMC storage densities (from 0GB (Lite) to 64GB), DRAM densities (2GB, 4GB, 8GB, and 16GB), and wireless and non-wireless variants. The Compute Module 5 features a 4kp60 HEVC decoder, Gigabit Ethernet PHY supporting IEEE 1588, and a USB 2.0 port (high speed). The modules include a single 5V PSU input that supports USB PD for up to 5A at 5V.
Mouser also stocks the Raspberry Pi CM5 development kit, which includes a Compute Module 5, CM5 IO board, CM5 metal case, CM5 passive cooler, and antenna kit.
This kit also comes with a standard HDMI cable, USB-A to USB-C cable, and a 27-watt USB-C PD power supply. The Compute Module 5 is available with multiple eMMC storage DRAM densities and wireless and non-wireless variants, making it ideal for a wide variety of embedded applications.
