- CPU: Allwinner H2+/H3, Quad-core Cortex-A7
- 512MB DDR 3 SDRAM
- WiFi & BT onboard
- Mini HDMI
- 40 Pin Raspberry Pi-compatible GPIO, including UART, SPI, I2C, etc
- Same size as Raspberry Pi Zero W
The Banana Pi M2 Zero is an ultra compact single board computer which
measures only 60mm*30mm. Its external interfaces are the same as the
Raspberry Pi Zero W, and it will fit almost all cases and accessories
for the Zero W. It uses the quad-core Cortex A7 Allwinner H3(option H2+
H5) processor, with 512MB RAM. It‘s ideal for light-weight systems and
space-limited applications. Like other members of the Banana Pi family,
it supports both Linux and Android operating systems.
