Overview

The Raspberry Pi 3 is the third generation Raspberry Pi. It replaced the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B in February 2016. Compared to the Raspberry Pi 2 it has:

• A 1.2GHz 64-bit quad-core ARMv8 CPU
• 802.11n Wireless LAN
• Bluetooth 4.1 & Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)

Features

• BCM2837, 1.2GHz 64-bit quad-core ARM Cortex-A53
• 1GB RAM
• 10/100 Ethernet port
• 802.11n WiFi NIC
• Bluetooth 4.1 & Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)
• HDMI port
• USB 2.0 interface x 4
• Micro SD card slot
• Combined 3.5mm audio jack and composite video
• 40-pin GPIO interface
• Camera interface (CSI)
• Display interface (DSI)
• Upgraded power management, supports more peripherals (requires a 2.5A power supply or above)

ARPI600 Features

• Compatible with Arduino UNO, Leonardo, easy to connect with various Arduino shields
• XBee connector for connecting various XBee modules
• Sensor interface for connecting various sensors
• Onboard USB TO UART for serial port debugging, also can be configured as XBee USB adapter
• Onboard ADC, 10 bit, 38KSPS, 11 channels (6 channels for Arduino interface, 5 channels for sensors)
• Onboard RTC
