Selling a quarter million Raspberry Pi Zero W units in only nine weeks is a major milestone for the project that designs and builds some of the most powerful single-board computers on the market, the Raspberry Pi. It also shows that users are interested in Pi Zero W’s built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functionality. The device features a single-core processor (CPU) running at 1GHz, 512MB RAM, 802.11n wireless LAN powered by a Cypress CYW43438 wireless chip, HAT-compatible 40-pin header, micro-USB OTG (On-the-Go) port, mini-HDMI port, micro-USB power, as well as composite video, and reset headers.
