RELOC's SCINTIX P4 Puts Espressif's Powerful ESP32-P4 Into Almost Any Raspberry Pi CM4/CM5 Carrier
Italian engineering firm RELOC is preparing to launch a crowdfunding campaign for the SCINTIX P4 — putting an Espressif ESP32-P4 system-on-chip into carrier boards designed for the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 or Compute Module 5.
"SCINTIX P4 is a compact compute module that brings real-time MCU [Microcontroller Unit] performance into the Raspberry Pi CM4/CM5 carrier ecosystem," says RELOC's Andrea Ricci of the new device. "It's different from every other compatible module because it features a real-time [Espressif] ESP32-P4 MCU into the same mechanical and electrical footprint. This gives MCU developers the determinism, instant boot, and low power consumption they expect. To our knowledge, this makes SCINTIX P4 the first MCU-based compute module ever released in this form factor."
