History
In 2006, early concepts of the
Raspberry Pi were based on the Atmel
ATmega644 microcontroller. Its
schematics and PCB layout are
publicly available.
Foundation trustee Eben Upton
assembled a group of teachers,
academics and computer enthusiasts
to devise a computer to inspire
children.
The computer is inspired by Acorn's
BBC Micro of 1981.
The Model A, Model B and Model
B+ names are references to the
original models of the British
educational BBC Micro computer,
developed by Acorn Computers.

• The Foundation's goal was to offer two
versions, priced at US$25 and $35.
• They started accepting orders for the
higher priced Model B on 29 February
2012, the lower cost Model A on 4
February 2013. and the even lower cost
(US$20) A+ on 10 November 2014.
• On 26 November 2015, the cheapest
Raspberry Pi yet, the Raspberry Pi Zero,
was launched at US$5 or £4.

Raspberry Pi being very cost productive can
be located in large numbers in
underdeveloped and developing countries
like Africa, India, China, Brazil etc. to
schools and colleges and to everyone who is
interested in computers and electronics.
It can be used in robotics for controlling
motors, sensors, etc.
It can be used as a downloading machine
replacing desktop computers. It consumes
very low power and also can be accessed
remotely.
It can be used as a media centre at home.
