Raspberry Pi CM4S module gets 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB RAM variants for commercial products

Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4S with 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB variants

Raspberry Pi has announced three new versions of its Compute Module 4S (CM4S) offering 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB RAM options which is an upgrade from the 1GB variant introduced in 2022. These new modules feature the same Broadcom BCM2711 quad-core Cortex-A72 SoC used in Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi CM4 and have a starting price of only $25. The main downside is that the modules can only be purchased in bulk (200-unit boxes) through Raspberry Pi Approved Resellers. Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4S (CM4S) specifications: SoC – Broadcom BCM2711 CPU – Quad-core 64-bit Cortex-A72 processor @ 1.5 GHz GPU – VideoCore VI GPU 3D Graphics: OpenGL ES 3.0 and Vulkan 1.1 Video H.265 (HEVC) (up to 4Kp60 decode) H.264 (up to 1080p60 decode, 1080p30 encode) Memory – 1GB, 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB LPDDR4-3200 SDRAM with ECC Storage – 8GB, 16GB, or 32GB eMMC flash; Option for 0GB eMMC Flash […]
