Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 16GB - 2GB RAM

Added to your shopping cart

The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 represents a huge change for the Compute Module line. The biggest change being the move from the DDR2 SODIMM connector form factor to a high density connector on the bottom of the board. But true to the line, the Compute Module 4 packs all the best features of the Raspberry Pi Model B 4 into a more favorable form-factor for embedded or OEM applications.

The board includes the same 1.5GHz quad-core 64-bit ARM Cortex-A72 CPU on the Raspberry Pi 4 and is capable of 4k Video via dual HDMI interfaces. It has a single-lane PCI 2.0 express interface with dual MIPI DSI display and CSI-2 camera interfaces. For the first time, wireless capability is offered on the Compute Module line in the form of an optional 2.4GHz and 5GHz IEEE 802.11b/g/n/ac wireless LAN and Bluetooth 5.0 radio. The board supports Gigabit Ethernet PHY with IEEE 1588 support and has 28 GPIO pins, with up to 6 × UART, 6 × I2C and 5 × SPI.

This model has 2GB of LPDDR4-3200 SDRAM and 16GB of eMMC Flash storage.

As with the Compute Module 3+, the Compute Module 4 is available with a choice of eMMC storage densities: 0GB (Lite); 8GB; 16GB; and 32GB along with a choice of DRAM densities: 1GB; 2GB; 4GB; and 8GB. As a result, there are 32 distinct variants of the product, each with its own part number. If you do not see the combination you’re looking for on our site yet, please email support@sparkfun.com.

Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 16GB - 2GB RAM Product Help and Resources

Core Skill: Programming

If a board needs code or communicates somehow, you're going to need to know how to program or interface with it. The programming skill is all about communication and code.

3 Programming

Skill Level: Competent - The toolchain for programming is a bit more complex and will examples may not be explicitly provided for you. You will be required to have a fundamental knowledge of programming and be required to provide your own code. You may need to modify existing libraries or code to work with your specific hardware. Sensor and hardware interfaces will be SPI or I2C.

Core Skill: Electrical Prototyping

If it requires power, you need to know how much, what all the pins do, and how to hook it up. You may need to reference datasheets, schematics, and know the ins and outs of electronics.

3 Electrical Prototyping

Skill Level: Competent - You will be required to reference a datasheet or schematic to know how to use a component. Your knowledge of a datasheet will only require basic features like power requirements, pinouts, or communications type. Also, you may need a power supply that?s greater than 12V or more than 1A worth of current.

    I realize it's a little ridiculous to have different product images for a zillion nearly-identical Pi CM4 modules, but it's VERY confusing to figure out that this particular module doesn't have wifi, when the image shows the module fitted.
