The Intel\u00ae Edison is an ultra small computing platform that will change the way you look at embedded electronics. Each Edison is packed with a huge amount of tech goodies into a tiny package while still providing the same robust strength of your go-to single board computer. Powered by the Intel\u00ae Atom\u2122 SoC dual-core CPU and including an integrated WiFi, Bluetooth LE, and a 70-pin connector to attach a veritable slew of shield-like \"Blocks\" which can be stacked on top of each other. It's no wonder how this little guy is lowering the barrier of entry on the world of electronics!<\/p>\n\n
The Base Block serves as add-on for the Intel\u00ae Edison by allowing you to attach different peripherals like a key board, mouse, or thumb drive. Basically anything that can plug into a USB can now connect to your Edison! Equipped with a micro AB USB backed by USB OTG and FT231X respectively, you should have no issues attaching external hardware to your Edison.<\/p>\n\n
If you are looking to add a little more stability to your Intel\u00ae Edison stack, check out this Hardware Pack<\/a>. It will provide you with increased mechanical strength for stacking Blocks on your Edison!<\/p>\n\n Documents:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Videos<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n
