Detailed explanation-1: -The Broadcom BCM2835 SoC used in the first generation Raspberry Pi includes a 700 MHz 32-bit ARM1176JZF-S processor, VideoCore IV graphics processing unit (GPU), and RAM. It has a level 1 (L1) cache of 16 KB and a level 2 (L2) cache of 128 KB. The level 2 cache is used primarily by the GPU.
Detailed explanation-2: -BCM2835 is the MCU chip of the Raspberry Pi, whose library can often be used to access the GPIO on BCM 2835 chip. You can use the librarty to control the rigistors of a BCM2835 chip directly just like using STM32 library to control an STM32 chip.
Detailed explanation-3: -The BCM2835 library is a C library that allows you to access GPIO and other peripheral functions on the BCM2835 chip on the RaspberryPi. It will enable you to program the SoC directly.
Detailed explanation-4: -the BCM2835 on the RPI The Raspberry Pi runs the BCM2835 with a core clock of 250MHz.
Detailed explanation-5: -The underlying architecture in BCM2836 is identical to BCM2835. The only significant difference is the removal of the ARM1176JZF-S processor and replacement with a quad-core Cortex-A7 cluster. This is the Broadcom chip used in the Raspberry Pi 3, and in later models of the Raspberry Pi 2.
