Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 (4GB RAM, 32GB eMMC, wireless)

The Compute Module 5 (CM5) combines the internals of a Raspberry Pi 5 (the BCM2712 processor and 2GB, 4GB, or 8GB of RAM) with optional 0GB (Lite), 16GB, 32GB or 64GB of eMMC flash storage.

CM5 uses the same form factor as CM4, featuring two 100-pin high density connectors.

Compute Module 5 gives you everything you love about Raspberry Pi 5, but in a smaller package:

• A 2.4GHz quad-core 64-bit Arm Cortex-A76 CPU
• A VideoCore VII GPU, supporting OpenGL ES 3.1 and Vulkan 1.3
• Dual 4Kp60 HDMI® display output
• A 4Kp60 HEVC decoder
• Optional dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth 5.0
• 2 × USB 3.0 interfaces, supporting simultaneous 5Gbps operation
• Gigabit Ethernet, with IEEE 1588 support
• 2 × 4-lane MIPI camera/display transceivers
• A PCIe 2.0 x1 interface for fast peripherals
• 30 GPIOs, supporting 1.8V or 3.3V operation
• A rich selection of peripherals (UART, SPI, I2C, I2S, SDIO, and PWM)

Compute Module 5 is mechanically compatible with its predecessor, Compute Module 4, exposing all signals through a pair of high-density perpendicular connectors, which attach to corresponding parts on the customer’s carrier board. Additional stability is provided by four M2.5 mounting holes arranged at the corners of the board.

There are a small number of changes to the pin-out and electrical behaviour of the module, mostly associated with the removal of the two two-lane MIPI interfaces, and the addition of two USB 3.0 interfaces. A detailed summary of these changes can be found in the Compute Module 5 datasheet.
