Note that extra performance comes at a power cost, if that's important for your application. The Zero 2 W has a higher default power consumption: about a third higher at idle, and almost 3X higher under high load. You can turn things off to reduce power consumption, but not as low as the original Zero W. https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2021/look-inside-raspberry-pi-zero-2-w-and-rp3a0-au (at the bottom of the "Performance" section). -- Ed Blackman _______________________________________________ Triangle, NC Embedded Computing mailing list To post message: [email protected] List info: http://mail.triembed.org/mailman/listinfo/triembed_triembed.org TriEmbed web site: http://TriEmbed.org To unsubscribe, click link and send a blank message: mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
