Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3+ follows on the footsteps of the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3 (CM3) series announced in January 2017, offering owners of the tiny Linux computers a general-purpose, cost-efficient, and much simpler SBC (Single-board Computer), allowing them to slot it in and out of any device. It comes with 10x the ARM performance, 8x the Flash capacity, and 2x the RAM capacity of CM3. While Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3+ uses the same board as CM3, it brings improved thermal design, the Broadcom BCM2837B0 application processor from the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ single-board computer, but running at 1.2GHz instead of 1.4GHz, up to 32GB eMMC Flash memory, improved PCB thermal design to better support high loads without getting hot, and 1GB LPDDR2 SDRAM.
