The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3+ Lite offers the power of a Raspberry Pi 3B+ in a compact DDR2 SODIMM form factor without built-in storage. The "Lite" variant brings the SD card interface to the module pins, letting you connect your own eMMC or SD card for maximum flexibility. Designed for makers building custom PCBs and commercial products, the CM3+ Lite provides a 68 × 30mm footprint with the BCM2837B0 processor running at 1.2GHz and 1GB LPDDR2 RAM. Key Features No Built-in Storage – SD card interface on module pins for custom storage solutions BCM2837B0 Processor – 64-bit quad-core Cortex-A53 @ 1.2GHz 1GB LPDDR2 RAM – Sufficient for most embedded applications SODIMM Form Factor – 200-pin DDR2 SODIMM connector Compact Size – 68 × 30mm footprint Extended Temperature – Operates from -20°C to +70°C Specifications Processor: Broadcom BCM2837B0 RAM: 1GB LPDDR2 Storage: SD card interface (no eMMC) Video: H.264/MPEG-4 decode/encode (1080p30) Graphics: OpenGL ES 1.1, 2.0 Connector: 200-pin DDR2 SODIMM Ideal For Custom PCB designs requiring flexible storage Industrial embedded systems Applications requiring easy storage updates Cost-sensitive deployments Note: Requires a carrier board for development. For built-in storage, see CM3+ variants with 8GB, 16GB, or 32GB eMMC.
