The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 (CM4) with 1GB RAM and 32GB eMMC is a powerful and compact system-on-module (SoM) designed for industrial and commercial applications. It is a cost-effective and highly customizable solution for developing IoT projects, robots, and other embedded systems.
Broadcom BCM2711B0 quad-core Cortex-A72 CPU
1GB LPDDR4-2400 SDRAM
32GB eMMC flash storage
Dual-band 802.11ac wireless LAN and Bluetooth 5.0
Gigabit Ethernet
HDMI 2.0a, USB 3.0, and UART interfaces
Supports multiple operating systems, including Raspbian, Ubuntu, and Yocto Project
To get started with the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4, you'll need:
A Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 with 1GB RAM 32GB eMMC
A compatible carrier board (e.g., Raspberry Pi IO Board or a custom design)
Power supply (5V, 2.5A recommended)
MicroSD card (for booting and additional storage)
HDMI display and peripherals (optional)
### Example 1: Python Script for Reading Temperature and Humidity using DHT11 Sensor
In this example, we'll use the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 to read temperature and humidity data from a DHT11 sensor using Python.
DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor
Breadboard and jumper wires
Raspbian operating system
Python 3.x
DHT11 library for Python
Code
```python
import Adafruit_DHT
import time
# Set up DHT11 sensor
dht_sensor = Adafruit_DHT.DHT11
# Set pin for DHT11 data pin
dht_pin = 17
while True:
# Read temperature and humidity data
humidity, temperature = Adafruit_DHT.read_retry(dht_sensor, dht_pin)
# Print data to console
print("Temperature: {:.1f}C, Humidity: {:.1f}%".format(temperature, humidity))
# Wait 1 second before taking the next reading
time.sleep(1)
```
### Example 2: C++ Program for Controlling LEDs using GPIO
In this example, we'll use the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 to control LEDs using C++ and the WiringPi library.
LEDs (2-3)
Resistors (2-3)
Breadboard and jumper wires
Raspbian operating system
WiringPi library (install using `sudo apt-get install wiringpi`)
Code
```cpp
#include <wiringPi.h>
#define LED1 17 // GPIO pin for LED 1
#define LED2 23 // GPIO pin for LED 2
#define LED3 24 // GPIO pin for LED 3
int main() {
wiringPiSetup();
pinMode(LED1, OUTPUT);
pinMode(LED2, OUTPUT);
pinMode(LED3, OUTPUT);
while (1) {
// Toggle LEDs
digitalWrite(LED1, HIGH);
delay(500);
digitalWrite(LED1, LOW);
delay(500);
digitalWrite(LED2, HIGH);
delay(500);
digitalWrite(LED2, LOW);
delay(500);
digitalWrite(LED3, HIGH);
delay(500);
digitalWrite(LED3, LOW);
delay(500);
}
return 0;
}
```
Compile the code using `gcc` and run it using `./led_control`. This program will toggle the LEDs connected to GPIO pins 17, 23, and 24.
These examples demonstrate the versatility of the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 in various IoT applications. With its impressive performance, compact design, and extensive software support, the CM4 is an ideal choice for developing innovative projects.
