Raspberry Pi hints at new products in 2024 #RaspberryPi @hacksterio
On the heels of the Raspberry 5 announcement several weeks ago, Eben Upton hints at an RP2040 successor and promises a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 in 2024. Upton is quoted as saying:
“We know what people don’t like about [RP]2040,” Upton admitted at the event, “the [Arm Cortex-]M0+ [architecture], could have more RAM, could have more GPIO [General-Purpose Input/Output], and we know what people do like — the PIO [Programmable Input/Output blocks]… and we have a chip team.”
While Upton stopped short of announcing an actual successor product, it’s clear the company is at least thinking about what comes after the RP2040. No release date for a new chip nor a Raspberry Pi Pico 2 to showcase it were discussed, but Upton did go on to confirm that the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 system-on-module is design-complete and scheduled for launch in 2024 — bringing with it “a high degree of commonality” with the Compute Module 4 and “USB 3.0 where some of the MIPI lane[s] used to be.”

Hopefully all new models of Raspberry Pi will be USB-C. That stupid little Micro USB port should die years ago.
