Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+

The new Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ is the latest predecessor of the popular Raspberry Pi 3 Model B SBC. in this edition; the Pi 3  gets a few new hardware announcements and improvements worth considering before buying a Pi 3 board. In this model, the CPU remains almost the same as the Broadcom quad-core, 64-bit processor based on Arm Cortex A53 architecture. Still, with few changes, such as the ability to overclock the chip frequency from 1.2GHz up to 1.4GHz, many DIY hobbies would like an option.

Compared to the previous Model B, which only supported 2.4GHz WiFi, this model has an improved WiFi chip that supports 5GHz 802.11 b/g/n/ac WiFi networks, capable of 100 Mb/s throughput which is more than enough for most home applications, including video streaming needs. In addition, the board comes with Bluetooth V4.2 compared to the older model that only supported Bluetooth standard v4.1.

On top of the WiFi and Bluetooth upgrades, the wired internet also has a speed improvement, courtesy of the board’s new Gigabit Ethernet over USB 2.0 bridge, which ups the maximum throughput to about 300Mbps. Another plus for those using the Pi with a wired Ethernet connection is the inclusion of support for a Power Over Ethernet [POE] Hardware Attached to the Top [HAT] board, which will add the ability for the Ethernet cable to power the board.
