Intel Launches 'Galileo,' an Arduino-Compatible Mini Computer

[sl4shd0t]

MojoKid writes "Although Intel is Chipzilla, the company can't help but extend its reach just a bit into the exciting and growing world of DIY makers and hobbyists. Intel announced its Galileo development board, a microcontroller that's compatible with Arduino software and uses the new Quark X1000 processor (400MHz, 32-bit, Pentium-class, single- core and thread) that Intel announced at the IDF 2013 keynote. The board makes use of Intel's architecture to make it easy to develop for Windows, Mac, and Linux, but it's also completely open hardware (PDF). Galileo is 10cm x 7cm (although ports protrude a bit beyond that), and there are four screw holes for secure mounting. Ports include 10/100 Ethernet, USB client/host ports, RS-232 UART and 3.5mm jack, mini PCIe slot (with USB 2.0 host support); other features include 8MB Legacy SPI Flash for firmware storage, 512KB embedded SRAM, 256MB DRAM, 11KB EEPROM programmed via the EEPROM library, and support for an additional 32GB of storage using a microSD card." http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=Intel+Launches+'Galileo%2C'+an+Arduino-Compatible+Mini+Computer%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F 18C3kVV) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fhardware.slashdot.org%2F story%2F13%2F10%2F04%2F1735248%2Fintel-launches-galileo-an-arduino-compatible-mini-computer%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfa cebook) http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/13/10/04/1735248/intel-launches-galileo-an-arduino-compatible-mini-computer?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
