The Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W is a compact, low-power, and cost-effective single-board computer (SBC) developed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation. It is an upgraded version of the original Raspberry Pi Zero W, offering significantly better performance while maintaining a small form factor.

Key Features:

• Processor: Broadcom BCM2710A1, a quad-core 64-bit ARM Cortex-A53 CPU running at 1 GHz (similar to the Raspberry Pi 3, but underclocked).
• RAM: 512MB LPDDR2 SDRAM.
• Wireless Connectivity:
  • Wi-Fi: 2.4GHz IEEE 802.11 b/g/n.
  • Bluetooth: 4.2 and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy).
• Ports & Interfaces:
  • Mini HDMI Port (supports up to 1080p output).
  • Micro USB OTG Port (for peripherals like a keyboard or mouse).
  • Micro USB Power Port.
  • CSI Camera Connector (for Raspberry Pi Camera Module).
  • 40-Pin GPIO Header (unpopulated, compatible with Raspberry Pi HATs).
  • MicroSD Card Slot (for OS and storage).
• Power Consumption: Low power consumption, making it ideal for battery-operated and embedded applications.
• Form Factor: Same dimensions as the original Raspberry Pi Zero (65mm × 30mm × 5mm).
