2. Knowing your R Pi## It is a credit card sized
computer dev. board and
is hardly 45gms that fits
in a palm of one’s hand
very eaisly
## It is just of 25$ (model
A), 30$ (model B) and
35$ (model B+ & R Pi-2)
## So it’s the most
affordable of its class
## It was basically
developed increase
programming skills of
students & for awareness
of embedded system
## It has the capacity to
play up to HD 1080p
videos
## One can prog. & dev.
his own game using
Know
your RPi

3. ## SCRATCH is the
graphic programming
language (just as
LabVIEW)
## In SCRATCH using
‘drag & drop’ we can
create our own games
(mostly for kids)
## It uses PYTHON as its
system programming
language
## PYTHON is a
computer language
developed by GUIDO
VAN ROSSUM in 1991

4. OPERATING SYSTEMS
• It uses a very vast variety of linux based operating
systems
• DEBIAN - It is the OS developed & updated by
raspberry pi foundation. It’s the official operating
system developed this foundation specifically for
RPi
• ARCH LINUX – It’s the arch-linux built for ARM
processors
• Open ELEC – ‘open embedded linux entertainment
center’ is an OS which runs on popular ‘XMBC-
open source digital media center’
• PINDORA – It’s a FEDORA remix, customised for
ver. of unix like fedora systems

5. • RASPBMC – Its yet another implementation of
‘XMBC open source digital media center’
• MINEPEON – It’s a ‘arch-linux ARM’ based OS.
Bitcoin mining can be doen very securely on this OS.
• KALI LINUX – Is is Debian derived OS specifically
designed for penetration testing & digital forensics
• OPEN Wrt – RPi with this OS is usually used Router
n/w
……..........& RPi has a whole lot of operating
systems built for it.

6. DEVELOPMENT
• Due to low no. of students taking interest in
programming & having poor skill level EBEN
UPTON & his colleagues frustrating problems
• In 2006 EBEN UPTON decided to dev. A very cheap
& easily programmable dev. board which any body
could play/hack with, without fearing expensive
mistakes
• Working on it, EBEN in collaboration with Comp.
Lab. At UNIVERSITY OF CAMBIDGE &
BROADCOM dev. ‘Raspberry Pi’ in 2009, and since
then it has evolved with it’s new and upgraded
models {basically model-A, B, B+ & RPi-2}

8. TECH. CONFIGURATION
• It has BROADCOM BCM2835 system on chip (SOC)
which has ARM11 76JZF-S processor with 700 MHz
frequency…………J- jazelle bytecode
Z- trust zone
F- floating point
S – synthesizable core
It also has BROADCOM video core 4 BCM2763
which is a very flexible 2D DSP architecture capable of
playing very high resolution videos
BROADCOM has monopolistic feature in
developing high feasibility video cores for smart
phones …….etc…..

9. • It uses USB 2.0 in all of its models
• RAM used in model A- 256MB | model B & B+
– 512MB | raspberry pi 2 – 1GB
• Video input or camera connection is doen via CSI
connector
• Video output is via RCA(only model A & B) or
HDMI or lcd support via DSI connector
• ETHERNET support – each Pi ( except model A )
has an on board ethernet port {10/100 Mb/s for model
B/B+}
• Audio Input – a 3.5 mm jack is provided in every
model
• A micro USB port is provided for power source of
5Volts & (1-2) Amps.

10. • The GPIO pins – Its generic on any IC whose
behaviour is controlled by user at runtime. GPIO
pins are most specifically used for connection of
external modules, ex)- Rpi camera module, led panel
module, ARDUINO-UNO module & other dev.
boards can also be integrated using GPIOs
• It’s a set of 26 pins (model A & B) or 40 pins (model
B+ & RPi-2)

11. RPi APPLICATIONS
• My computer
• Home electrical automation
• Creating our own servers
• We can make our own super computer integrating
large no of RPi boards .
• We can make our own Audio Players
• One can make a QUADCOPTER using raspberry pi .

12. • We can make our own DLSR camera using GPIO
integration
• Arcade gaming machine is also a fascinating
application of Rpi
