The SoC the RasPi uses, at least, has its datasheets available on Rasperry Pi's website. However, if you want to run anything but Linux on it, good luck dealing with its arcane boot sequence.
- userbinator 12y agoThose are only a tiny part of what Broadcom actually has in terms of documentation for the SoC. Look at the full set of documentation for a modern ARM SoC that does have it available (e.g. TI's Sitara series - which still doesn't have the GPU docs included) and you'll see that it is several thousand pages long.
