Galileo is the first Arduino-compatible microcomputer on the Intel platform. Now Available!
Sales of the Galileo microcontroller card based on the Intel Quark X1000 processor began. Intel Galileo is fully compatible with Arduino cards both in terms of software and pinout (all digital and analog connectors are in the same places as Arduino Uno R3). In addition, Galileo has a number of popular digital interfaces on board: a full-size mini-PCI Express slot, a 100Mb Ethernet port, a Micro-SD slot, an RS-232 serial port, a USB host and client, and an 8MB NOR flash.
Galileo is built on a single-core x86 Intel Quark X1000 processor with a frequency of 400 MHz. The processor has 16 KB L1 cache and 512 KB of internal memory.
Compared to other Arduino cards, Galileo has several features that increase its performance.
- SD slot has its own controller, data exchange is carried out without the participation of SPI;
- The Ethernet port also works without SPI;
- For the first time, a full-fledged PCI Express slot is implemented, allowing you to install expansion cards, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 3G, etc.
