Raspberry Pi - Hardware Flaws and Fixups?

Former Member
Former Member over 13 years ago

Several people have commented on the hardware design of the Raspberry Pi.  Some are buried in other topics so please post your comments here.  I'll try my best to answer questions about the design decisions we made.  The Raspberry Pi is not perfect, never will be.  I've always found that perfect designs have a habit of never getting built, engineers are always a bit guilty of that, but I had Eben phoning/emailing me every day wanting to know when it would be finished.  Also, one persons perfection is another persons nightmare.

 

e14 is the home for engineers so please contribute to make Raspberry Pi better.

 

Thanks

 

Pete

    It seems that the foundation, or one of its members, decided to become "open".

    Good news, i am happy to learn that i was not the only one banned from the official forum for trying to tackle subjects that were not the taste of Liz and  friends.


    Pete, are you going to post some schematics. It will be more convenient to talk about hardware.
    I see nothings really technical in the technical documentation section of this
