Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W — quad-core 64-bit SBC with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth

The Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W is a major leap forward from the original Zero. At its core is the RP3A0 — a custom system-in-package designed by Raspberry Pi in the UK — featuring a quad-core 64-bit ARM Cortex-A53 processor clocked at 1GHz and 512MB of SDRAM. That makes it up to five times faster than the original Pi Zero, while retaining the same iconic 65mm × 30mm form factor. Built-in 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.2 are housed in a shielded enclosure for improved RF compliance, giving you more flexibility in your designs.

Key Specifications:

• SoC: RP3A0 (custom Raspberry Pi system-in-package)

• Bluetooth: 4.2 / BLE
• Storage: MicroSD card slot
• Video: Mini HDMI port (1080p60 output)
• USB: 1x USB 2.0 OTG micro-USB port, 1x micro-USB power input
• Camera: CSI-2 camera connector (22-pin FPC)
• GPIO: 40-pin GPIO header (unpopulated)
• Form factor: 65mm × 30mm
• Operating voltage: 5V via micro-USB

Performance vs Original Pi Zero:

• Up to 5× faster CPU performance
• 64-bit OS support (Raspberry Pi OS 64-bit compatible)
• Improved thermal performance with metal RF shield acting as heatspreader

Applications:

• IoT sensor nodes and edge computing
• Portable Linux projects and wearables
• Retro gaming (RetroPie)
• Network tools (Pi-hole, VPN gateway)
• Camera and vision projects (with Pi Camera Module)
• Home automation and smart device control

Note: GPIO header is unpopulated — soldering required for GPIO use. Sold as board only; microSD card, power supply, and cables sold separately.
