    BCM2835
    Edit this on GitHub

    The BCM2835 is the Broadcom chip used in the


    Raspberry Pi 1 Models A, A+, B, B+, the Raspberry Pi Zero,
    the Raspberry Pi Zero W, and the Raspberry Pi Compute
    Module 1. Some details of the chip can be found in the
    peripheral speciUcation document. It contains a single-
    core ARM1176JZF-S processor.

    NOTE

    The peripheral speciUcation document contains a


    number of errors. However there is a list of currently
    known errata.

    Other information regarding the processor can be found


    in the following documents;

    ARM1176JZF-S

    BCM2836
    Edit this on GitHub

    The Broadcom chip used in the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B.


    The underlying architecture in BCM2836 is identical to
    BCM2835. The only signiUcant difference is the removal
    of the ARM1176JZF-S processor and replacement with a
    quad-core Cortex-A7 cluster.

    You should refer to:

    BCM2837
    Edit this on GitHub

    This is the Broadcom chip used in the Raspberry Pi 3


    Model B, later models of the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, and
    the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3. The underlying
    architecture of the BCM2837 is identical to the BCM2836.
    The only signiUcant difference is the replacement of the
    ARMv7 quad core cluster with a quad-core ARM Cortex
    A53 (ARMv8) cluster.

    The ARM cores run at 1.2GHz, making the device about


    50% faster than the Raspberry Pi 2. The VideoCore IV
    runs at 400MHz.

    Please refer to the following BCM2836 document for


    details on the ARM peripherals speciUcation, which also
    applies to the BCM2837.

    BCM2837B0
    Edit this on GitHub

    This is the Broadcom chip used in the Raspberry Pi 3


    Models A+, B+, and the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3+.
    The underlying architecture of the BCM2837B0 is
    identical to the BCM2837 chip used in other versions of
    the Raspberry Pi. The ARM core hardware is the same,
    only the frequency is rated higher.

    The ARM cores are capable of running at up to 1.4GHz,


    making the 3B+/3A+ about 17% faster than the original
    Raspberry Pi 3. The VideoCore IV runs at 400MHz. The
    ARM core is 64-bit, while the VideoCore IV is 32-bit.

    The BCM2837B0 chip is packaged slightly differently to


    the BCM2837, and most notably includes a heat spreader
    for better thermals. This allows higher clock frequencies,
    and more accurate monitoring and control of the chip’s
    temperature.

    This post on the Raspberry Pi blog goes into further detail


    about the BCM2837B0 chip.

    BCM2711
    Edit this on GitHub

    This is the Broadcom chip used in the Raspberry Pi 4


    Model B, the Raspberry Pi 400, and the Raspberry Pi
    Compute Module 4. The architecture of the BCM2711 is a
    considerable upgrade on that used by the SoCs in earlier
    Raspberry Pi models. It continues the quad-core CPU
    design of the BCM2837, but uses the more powerful ARM
    A72 core. It has a greatly improved GPU feature set with
    much faster input/output, due to the incorporation of a
    PCIe link that connects the USB 2 and USB 3 ports, and a
    natively attached Ethernet controller. It is also capable of
    addressing more memory than the SoCs used before.

    The ARM cores are capable of running at up to 1.5 GHz,


    making the Raspberry Pi 4 about 50% faster than the
    Raspberry Pi 3B+. The new VideoCore VI 3D unit now
    runs at up to 500 MHz. The ARM cores are 64-bit, and
    while the VideoCore is 32-bit, there is a new Memory
    Management Unit, which means it can access more
    memory than previous versions.

    The BCM2711 chip continues to use the heat spreading


    technology started with the BCM2837B0, which provides
    better thermal management.

    Processor: Quad-core Cortex-A72 (ARM v8) 64-bit SoC @


    1.5 GHz.

    Memory: Accesses up to 8GB LPDDR4-2400 SDRAM


    (depending on model)

    Caches: 32kB data + 48kB instruction L1 cache per core.


    1MB L2 cache.

    Multimedia: H.265 (4Kp60 decode); H.264 (1080p60


    decode, 1080p30 encode); OpenGL ES, 3.0 graphics

    I/O: PCIe bus, onboard Ethernet port, 2 × DSI ports (only


    one exposed on Raspberry Pi 4B), 2 × CSI ports (only one
    exposed on Raspberry Pi 4B), up to 6 × I2C, up to 6 ×
    UART (muxed with I2C), up to 6 × SPI (only Uve exposed
    on Raspberry Pi 4B), dual HDMI video output, composite
    video output.

    The datasheet for the BCM2711 contains further details.

    RP3A0
    Edit this on GitHub

    The Raspberry Pi RP3A0 is our Urst System-in-Package


    (SiP) consisting of a Broadcom BCM2710A1 — which is
    the silicon die packaged inside the Broadcom BCM2837
    chip which is used on the Raspberry Pi 3 — along with
    512MB of DRAM.

    It is used by the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W.

    The RP3A0 is a Quad-core 64-bit Arm Cortex A53 CPU


    clocked at 1 GHz, although with a heat sink or other
    cooling solution in place, the chip can be potentially
    overclocked to 1.2 GHz.

    Please refer to the following BCM2836 document for


    details on the ARM peripherals speciUcation, which also
    applies to the BCM2837 and RP3A0.

    NOTE

    The original Raspberry Pi Zero uses Package-on-Package


    (PoP) DRAM, where the DRAM is soldered directly on top
    of the BCM2835 chip.
