Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5

by Raspberry Pi

Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 is a system on module that delivers the power of Raspberry Pi 5 in a form factor ideal for embedded applications.

Featuring a quad-core Arm Cortex-A76 processor, dual 4Kp60 HDMI output, Gigabit Ethernet, optional fully-certified wireless module providing Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth connectivity, and a variety of RAM and eMMC flash options, Compute Module 5 enables you to leverage Raspberry Pi 5’s powerful hardware and optimised software stack in your own custom systems and form factors.

In comparison with its predecessor, Compute Module 5 features additional I/O interfaces, allowing even more flexibility and providing a greater breadth of options for product and application design. For cost-sensitive applications, Compute Module 5 is also available without eMMC flash.

The one-liner installer works well on a clean install of Retropie. The amp is just enough to drive a T1-2121SD

Upgraded my original Kickstarter Picade and needed this for Pi 4 compatibility. Works the charm- only wish is that audio was stereo. Other than that, it works well and was an easy upgrade! Recommended

Works perfect, very easy to setup, connecting all buttons, joystick and all has been as easy as it gets. Plus the on/off switch is a real treat compared to the old plug / unplug you're used to with the Raspberry Pi. Would recommend 100% !

This is a brilliant controller board for our arcade project, and makes it really easy to connect everything. We haven't tested it yet but it is a great board.

An excellent bit of kit! I paired it with RetroPie and my 1980s Competition Pro joystick to create my own little piece of 8-bit gaming heaven...

This is a great little board! I wanted to power a Pi and Pi Display in a SmartPi case with USB-C for a bit more power and this was available at an opportune time. The +/- are placed with just enough space to solder a right angle connector and feed wires through the case to the display. Still waiting to get hold of a PSU but this is working well off a bench supply. Software was easy to install, and the IO will come in handy for any controls I want to add to my project.

Bought this for an arcade project along with a Pi 3 A+. Easy way to provide on/off switch functionality, an audio amp with speaker output and any extra buttons needed.
