The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 (CM5) is a system-on-module version of the Raspberry Pi5, designed for integration into custom carrier boards rather than standalone use. It uses the same quad-core Arm Cortex-A76 processor running at up to 2.4 GHz and is available in configurations with 2 GB, 4 GB, or 8 GB of LPDDR4X RAM, and optional 16–64 GB of eMMC storage. The CM5 connects via two 100-pin high-density connectors (the same form factor as the CM4), making it a drop-in upgrade for most CM4-based carrier boards. It will remain in production until at least January 2036.
