EXPERIMENT 1
Student Name: Amir Philip Adam UID: 22BEC10009
Branch: Electronic & Communication Section/Group:22BEC-2,A
th
Semester: 6 Date of Performance:07/01/2025
Subject Name:Raspberry Pi and its interfacing Subject Code:22ECH-321

1.Aim: To Familiarize with the Raspberry Pi SBC and Perform Necessary Software
Installations.

2.Required Tools/Components: Raspberry Pi SBC (with micro sd card slot), Micro


SD card 32Gb, HDMI cable and compatible Monitor/ PC, USB Keyboard and mouse,
Internet Connection,Raspberry Pi Image,Power Supply (5V, 3A)
3.Theory:

The Raspberry Pi is a versatile, credit-card-sized computer that can run a full-fledged operating system. It
provides an affordable and accessible platform for learning programming, electronics, and computing. The
Raspberry Pi has a Broadcom ARM-based processor and various ports for connectivity, such as HDMI,
USB, GPIO pins, and an Ethernet port.

Software Installation
Before using the Raspberry Pi, you need to install the operating system (Raspberry Pi OS) onto the SD card.
This can be done using a tool like the Raspberry Pi Imager or other imaging software. The system can then
be booted up, and you can configure the device for first use.

4.Steps involved:

 Prepare the Raspberry Pi Setup

 Insert the microSD card into your computer and ensure it is empty (use SD Formatter if needed).
 Download the Raspberry Pi Imager from the official website and install it on your computer.

 Open the Raspberry Pi Imager, select the Raspberry Pi OS (Lite or Desktop) from the operating system
options.

Once the process completes, safely eject the microSD card.

 Initial Setup of the Raspberry Pi

 Insert the prepared microSD card into the Raspberry Pi.


 Connect the Raspberry Pi to the monitor using the HDMI cable, and attach the keyboard and mouse.
 Connect the Raspberry Pi to the internet (Ethernet or Wi-Fi).

 Power Up and Boot the Raspberry Pi

 Plug in the power supply to the Raspberry Pi. The system will boot up automatically.
 The first boot will prompt you to complete the initial configuration (language, region, password, internet .).

Fig 1.5 shows the initial setups after booting

 Software Installation

Once the OS is installed and the system is booted, open a terminal window.

To update the system and install necessary software, run the following commands:

 sudo apt update


 sudo apt upgrade

Interfacing with Raspberry Pi Hardware

Pins: Use GPIO pins for controlling LEDs, sensors, or motors. Install Python libraries like
RPi.GPIO or gpiozero for control.
Camera Module: Attach the camera module to the CSI port and enable it via the
Configuration tool.
I2C/SPI Devices: Use I2C or SPI to interface with hardware like displays or sensors.
HDMI Displays: Connect a monitor or TV using the micro HDMI ports.

Fig 1.8 shows the software configuration of Raspberry Pi so as to enable


interfacing with external devices.

Shutdown Safely:

Always shut down the Raspberry Pi properly to avoid corruption:

 sudo shutdown -h now

5.Conclusion

This experiment successfully familiarized me with the Raspberry Pi hardware and software setup process.
By installing the Raspberry Pi OS and verifying the installation, I’m now ready to begin working on more
complex projects with Raspberry Pi.
