Overview
Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W is the latest product in our most affordable range of single-board 
computers. The successor to the breakthrough Raspberry Pi Zero W, Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W 
is a form factor–compatible drop-in replacement for the original board.
The  board  incorporates  a  quad-core  64-bit  Arm  Cortex-A53  CPU,  clocked  at  1GHz. 
At its heart is a Raspberry Pi RP3A0 system-in-package (SiP), integrating a Broadcom 
BCM2710A1  die  with  512MB  of  LPDDR2  SDRAM.  The  upgraded  processor  provides 
Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W with 40% more single-threaded performance, and five times more 
multi-threaded performance, than the original single-core Raspberry Pi Zero.
Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W offers 2.4GHz 802.11 b/g/n wireless LAN and Bluetooth 4.2, along 
with support for Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), and modular compliance certification. 
The board has a microSD card slot, a CSI-2 camera connector, a USB On-The-Go (OTG) 
port, and an unpopulated footprint for a HAT-compatible 40-pin GPIO header. It is powered 
via a micro USB socket. Video output is via a mini HDMI port; composite video output 
can easily be made available via test points if needed. 
Sharing the same form factor as the original Raspberry Pi Zero, Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W 
fits inside most existing Raspberry Pi Zero cases.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid malfunction or damage to this product, please observe the following:
•  Do not expose to water or moisture, or place on a conductive surface whilst in operation.
• 
 Do  not  expose  to  heat  from  any  source;  Raspberry  Pi  Zero  2  W  is  designed  for  reliable  operation  at  normal 
ambient temperatures.
 Take care whilst handling to avoid mechanical or electrical damage to the printed circuit board and connectors.
 Whilst it is powered, avoid handling the printed circuit board, or only handle it by the edges to minimise the risk of 
electrostatic discharge damage.
