Intel® Edison

Intel® Edison technology is a hardware/software platform that, when combined with sensors and your imagination, enables you to invent new internet-enabled products and solutions.

  • Processor — “Tangier” Atom SoC with 22nm Intel Atom (2x Silvermont/Merrifield-like cores @ 500MHz) and 100MHz, 32-bit Intel Quark

  • Memory — 1GB LPDDR3 POP RAM (2-ch. 32-bit) @ 800MT/sec; 4GB eMMC (v4.51)

  • Wireless:

    • 802.11 a/b/g/n (2.4/5GHz) using Broadcom 43340 module

    • Bluetooth 4.0 (Bluetooth LE due in Q4)

    • Onboard or ext. antenna options

  • I/O — via 70-pin Hirose DF40 Series connector (1.5, 2.0, or 3.0mm stack height) with 40x GPIOs for:

    • USB 2.0 OTG

    • SD

    • 2x UART

    • 2x I2C

    • SPI

    • I2S

    • 12x GPIO (includes 4x capable of PWM)

    • 32kHz, 19.2MHz clock output

  • Operating temperature — 0 to 40°C

  • Power:

    • Input voltage — 3.3 to 4.5 VDC

    • Consumption:

      • Typical — (tbd, per Intel)

      • Maximum — (tbd, per Intel)

      • Standby — 13mW (no radios); 21.5mW (Bluetooth); 35mW (WiFi)

    • Output — 100ma @3.3V and 100ma @ 1.8V output

  • Dimensions — 35.5 × 25.0 × 3.9mm (1.4 × 1.0 × 0.15 in.)

  • Operating system — Yocto Linux 1.6 for the Atom SoC, with support for Arduino IDE, Eclipse (C, C++, Python), Intel XDK (Node.JS, HTML5); Viper RTOS SDK for the Quark MCU

Generic Microcontroller Unit (MCU) on an Intel® Edison board

Intel's added the SoC Quark to do low-level dirty work rather than eat-up bandwidth on the Atom CPU's.
