The Intel® Edison is an incredibly small computing platform that revolutionizes your view of embedded electronics. It squeezes a wealth of advanced technology into a tiny package, offering the same reliable performance as your favorite single - board computer. Powered by the Intel® Atom™ SoC dual - core CPU, it comes with integrated WiFi, Bluetooth LE, and a 70 - pin connector. This connector allows you to attach a variety of stackable 'Blocks', making it easier for you to enter the electronics world. The Intel® Edison combines great performance, durability, and extensive I/O and software support in a compact size. Its low power consumption and small footprint are perfect for projects requiring high processing power but without access to a large power source. The Intel® Edison Mini Breakout exposes the native 1.8 V I/O of the Edison module. The board has a power supply, battery recharger, USB OTG power switch, UART to USB bridge, USB OTG port, and I/O header. The kit includes an Intel® Edison (EDI1.SPON.AL.S) and a Mini Breakout Board. You can access documents like Intel® Edison Tutorials, Product Brief, Getting Started guide, Mini Breakout Hardware Guide, Software Downloads, and the Product Page.
Using the Intel® Edison with the Mini Breakout Kit is easy. First, connect the Edison to the Mini Breakout Board. You can then start attaching the 'Blocks' to the 70 - pin connector according to your project needs. To power it up, use the provided power supply or connect a battery. When using the USB OTG port, make sure the device you're connecting is compatible. Keep in mind that the Edison operates at a native 1.8 V I/O, so avoid using incompatible voltage devices. For maintenance, keep the device in a cool, dry place. Regularly check for software updates to ensure optimal performance. If you encounter any issues, refer to the Intel® Edison Tutorials and the Getting Started guide for help.
