The 20 Best Raspberry Pi Boards Available For The Developers

Are you looking for the perfect SBC (Single Board Computer) for
your project? Well, It’s a common problem for everyone that we get
too confused about buying the perfect board. In this era of
technology, we have multiple options, and it’s a bit tough to
choose one. Raspberry pi boards are the most popular SBC these days
because of its friendly cost and portability. When the Raspberry pi
board was first promoted, it got an unexpectedly positive response.
Since then, it has maintained its popularity, and the manufacturer
is always trying to bless us with the most updated version.

What is Raspberry
Pi?

---

Raspberry Pi can be defined as a card-sized computer that can be
used for multiple purposes. This tiny device can offer you every
application that you expect from a desktop computer. People of all
ages can experience computing and programming (Python, Scratch)
with this device. There are two kinds of raspberry pi models- Model
A and Model B. Model A features Ethernet port, but Model B doesn’t
have an Ethernet port.

Different models offer different RAM (256 MB to 8 GB). It
contains a central processing unit that is responsible for carrying
out all the instructions. Raspberry Pi uses the ARM11 series
processor. There are GPIO pins in Raspberry Pi boards that help to
connect the board with other electronic boards, and they are also
capable of taking input and output commands^[1]. It also supports audio
and video through HDMI and Composite connection.
