Raspberry Pi 2 increasingly powered by Quad Core Processor

Jakarta - Successor Raspberry Pi has been launched with better specs. Carrying the title Raspberry Pi 2, a small-sized computer is now embedded quad-core processor. The price is still very affordable.

Actually Raspberry Pi 2 still carrying the same form factor with the Raspberry Pi model B +. But this time pembesutnya add a USB port into 4 pieces. In addition, the processor also more capable with quad-core technology. The clock speed is also increased from which was only 700 MHz, 900 MHz boost so.

As for the storage sector, Raspberry Pi 2 micro SD slot is now thrusting replace the SD card slot that once offered the previous generation. GPIO pin number also increased in Raspberry Pi 2.

Another significant increase in attendance is the amount of RAM is increased to 1 GB. Raspberry Pi 2 processor now also rely on the ARM v7 design so that developers can be more flexible immerse OS that will be used.

Interestingly, with the specification that has been somewhat qualified it pembesutnya still offered at a price that is affordable
