Detailed Description:
Elevate your electronics projects with the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+, a versatile and powerful Single Board Computer (SBC) designed for a wide range of applications from desktop computing to advanced IoT projects. At its core lies the robust Broadcom BCM2837B0 SoC, featuring a 1.4GHz 64-bit quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU and 1GB of LPDDR2 SDRAM, providing the performance you need for multitasking and complex computations.
A key feature of the Pi 3 Model B+ is its exceptional connectivity, which makes it a standout choice for the Internet of Things. It comes with integrated dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz) and Bluetooth 4.2/BLE, ensuring seamless wireless communication with other devices and networks. For wired connections, it boasts Gigabit Ethernet over USB 2.0, offering significantly faster data transfer speeds up to 300 Mbps compared to its predecessors.
Moreover, the board is PoE (Power over Ethernet) Enabled, a game-changing feature for professional installations. By simply adding a separate PoE HAT, you can power the Raspberry Pi and transfer data over a single Ethernet cable, simplifying wiring and allowing for flexible placement in remote or hard-to-reach locations. This is ideal for applications like network cameras, industrial sensors, and remote monitoring systems. With its industry-standard 40-pin GPIO header, full-size HDMI, and multiple USB ports, the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ is a complete solution for makers, students, and engineers looking to bring their innovative ideas to life in Pune, Maharashtra, India.
The Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ is a credit-card-sized single-board computer that packs a punch. It features a Broadcom BCM2837B0 SoC with a 1.4GHz ARM Cortex-A53 quad-core CPU, 1GB LPDDR2 RAM, and supports Raspbian OS, Ubuntu, Windows IoT Core, and more.
The B+ model includes dual-band 2.4GHz/5GHz WiFi, Bluetooth 4.2 BLE, 4 USB 2.0 ports, a full-size HDMI port, and 40 GPIO pins for interfacing with sensors, actuators, and electronics.
Its enhanced thermal management, improved power-over-Ethernet (PoE) compatibility, and Gigabit Ethernet over USB 2.0 make it suitable for serious embedded applications and multitasking environments.
