Best Geeekpi Single Board Computers in 2026

powful cputhe cpu of the raspberry pi 4 model b adopts the latest arm cortex-a72 architecture, which is also used in high-performance smartphones, and has evolved into a real pc.the operating clock has been changed from pi3's 1.2ghz to 1.5ghz, and the speed has become a different dimension with the updated architecture.

video output/gputhe on-board gpu of the raspberry pi 4 supports 4kp@60 and newly supports h.265 decoding, opengl es 3.0, etc.as for the video output, two micro hdmis with smaller connectors are installed, and the raspberry pi 4 also supports dual screen output.

usb 3.0with a new soc, the speed of the raspberry pi 4 around i/o has been improved, and finally usb 3.0 is supported.usb boot is faster and more convenient.

The LCD has always been a device that acts as a window in human-computer interaction. For example, the prompt window on some instrument devices, the temperature and humidity prompt box, the device running status monitor, and the prompt screen of the counting device all have LCD figures.

The common LCD1602, LCD2004, and LCD12864 are fabricated using liquid crystal materials and communicated using the I2C bus.

It is a high-performance serial bus with bus rules and high-speed or low-speed device synchronization required for multi-master systems. The I2C bus has only two bidirectional signal lines, a serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL).

Use the i2c protocol to reduce the occupation of I/O ports, making it easier to add to the project, and less wiring is more beautiful.
