Raspberry Pi 2 Model B

Raspberry Pi 2 Model B is a proven quad-core SBC for learning Linux, retro gaming, signage, and GPIO-driven projects. You get a quad-core ARM CPU, 1GB RAM, full-size HDMI, 10/100 Ethernet, and the standard 40-pin GPIO—perfect for classrooms, makerspaces, and embedded prototypes in the Philippines.

Quad-Core Classic — Solid for Labs, Retro & Kiosks

  • Reliable platform: quad-core SoC @ ~900 MHz with 1GB RAM for light desktops, Python, and services.
  • Maker-ready I/O: 40-pin GPIO, CSI camera & DSI display connectors, 4× USB 2.0, 10/100 LAN.
  • Cost-effective: great value for signage, kiosks, PLC bridges, and teaching GPIO/Unix basics.
  • Huge ecosystem: compatible with many Raspberry Pi HATs, cameras, and displays.

What you can build

  • Retro console: emulation station with HDMI + USB gamepads
  • Digital signage & kiosks: browser-based displays, dashboards, QR check-in terminals
  • Camera projects: time-lapse or motion-capture using the CSI camera
  • GPIO learning rigs: sensors, relays, and HAT experiments

Technical specifications

Model Raspberry Pi 2 Model B (legacy)
SoC / CPU Quad-core ARM (Cortex-A7 class) ~900 MHz (later revs may use BCM2837 at similar speed)
Memory 1 GB LPDDR2
Storage microSD card slot (boot & OS)
USB 4 × USB 2.0 Type-A
Networking 10/100 Ethernet (RJ45)
Video & audio Full-size HDMI; 3.5 mm A/V jack (composite video + analog audio)
Camera / Display CSI camera connector; DSI display connector
GPIO 40-pin header (5 V, 3.3 V, I²C, SPI, UART, GPIO)
Wireless None on board (add USB Wi-Fi/BLE dongle if needed)
Power 5 V via Micro-USB; recommend 2A PSU (higher if using USB peripherals)

Pinout & power notes

  • 5V budget: use a quality 5 V PSU; high-draw USB devices may require a powered hub.
  • GPIO voltage: pins are 3.3 V logic; use a level shifter for 5 V modules.
  • Cooling: for sustained loads, add a heatsink or fan case.

FAQs – Raspberry Pi 2 Model B (Philippines)

Does it have built-in Wi-Fi/Bluetooth?
No. Add a USB Wi-Fi/BLE dongle or use Ethernet for networking.
Which power supply and cable should I use?
Use a stable 5 V, 2 A supply and a good Micro-USB cable. Higher-draw USB peripherals may need a powered hub.
What microSD size is recommended?
16–32 GB Class-10 microSD works well for Raspberry Pi OS and typical apps. Larger cards are fine if you need more storage.
Is this compatible with modern HATs and cameras?
Yes—the 40-pin GPIO, CSI, and DSI follow Raspberry Pi standards used by most HATs and cameras.
Do you ship nationwide and support school/corporate orders?
Yes. We ship nationwide across the Philippines via trusted couriers and can prepare classroom bundles and bulk quotations on request.

Tip: For newer performance, consider Raspberry Pi 4/5. For tight budgets, a Pi 3 may also fit.
