News about Raspberry Pi 6 and Microcontroller Development

Read Original

In a recent AMA on r/engineering, three lead Raspberry Pi engineers shared insights on the Pi 6, expected no earlier than early 2028 due to a global DRAM shortage. The Pi 6 will focus on faster CPU and IO rather than new features like an M.2 slot or NPU. The Pi Zero 2W faces substrate supply constraints, with a new vendor to alleviate shortages; a Pi Zero 3 is unlikely soon due to cost and design challenges. Microcontroller development, including the RP2350, overcame power and security issues, with USB-C adoption hindered by cost. Microcontroller shipments surpassed Pi SBC sales in 2025.
