Raspberry Pi 5

The Raspberry Pi 5 is the fifth primary generation of the Raspberry Pi series of small, single-board computers developed in the United Kingdom by Raspberry Pi Ltd. Originally conceived as an affordable tool to promote the teaching of basic computer science in schools and developing countries, the product has since evolved into a versatile device used extensively for robotics, industrial monitoring, and automation.

Since its launch, the hardware has been manufactured primarily in the Sony UK Technology Centre in Pencoed, Wales. This strategic partnership with Sony has been a cornerstone of their production model since 2012, ensuring high-quality manufacturing standards within the UK, though some components and auxiliary production may occur in other global facilities to meet international demand.

The brand is managed by Raspberry Pi Ltd (the commercial subsidiary) and overseen by the Raspberry Pi Foundation, a UK-based charity. This unique structure ensures that while the company operates as a major global tech entity, its profits support educational initiatives worldwide. The Raspnerry Pi 5 represents a significant technological leap, featuring silicon designed in-house by the Raspberry Pi team.
