Latte Panda—a powerful computer with a small figure

LattePanda (124-4684) is a single board that integrates a Win10 computer system and an Arduino compatible core, which is slightly larger than the Raspberry Pi. Obviously we cannot ignore the similarities between LattePanda and Raspberry Pi. Indeed, the markets targeted by the two are similar, but the "tastes" are different. Unlike the Raspberry Pi which uses the Linux system, LattePanda uses the Win10 operating system.

This board uses a powerful 1.8GHz Cherry Trail Intel Atom CPU (Z8300) to provide a great Windows desktop experience. Without the Intel Atom processor, the I/O port is controlled by another microprocessor. However, when the requirements of the application are high, this microprocessor can also be reprogrammed to offload the Atmo processor. In terms of performance, the Atom Processor is not like the Atom CPU. It sometimes has a load, and its specifications are more similar to those of modern netbook processors. These specifications are based on the calculation standards of modern netbooks. The Atom CPU is an expert in this respect, so it can run Win10 application software in most cases. Here are some background data: The CPU/GPU single-board combo port makes the CPU and 3D rendering performance comparable to or even better than that of your mid-range computer in 2009, and about eight times the performance of the Raspberry Pi.

After using Arduino, LattePanda has two advantages: a scheduled windows operating system and a certain Arduino co-processor. Those who have tried to use Linux or Windows to perform real-time determination operations will definitely tell you that their operation experience is not good. An advanced operating system like Linux or Windows is based on the timing arrangement. When we want to set the general I/O port to high level, the system will list this task. Everything looks perfect, so when will this task be performed? This depends on many factors, and these factors are often accompanied by "after a period of time." At this time, Arduino has demonstrated its advantages. Its structure is simpler, and it runs the code in a linear manner. This feature determines that it uses more deterministic operations. In addition, Arduino is equipped with analog inputs and hardware modules (I2C, timers, etc.). An example is that in I2C slave mode, the platform cannot control the timing. So using an I2C hardware device means a more reliable operating system, because the software no longer requires poll input and output, the hardware will complete this part of the content.

Arduino is pre-programmed according to StandardFirmata's drawing mode (sketch), which is a very common Arduino drawing mode for computer operation. It provides an interface for the Arduino hardware through the serial port, and it is also a simple and effective method for controlling general-purpose I/O or external devices.

LattePanda uses 3.96mm connectors, pin headers/female header, Micro USB, USB 2.0 A type, USB 3.0 A type, FPCand HDMI connectors.

What is the coaxial connector?

图片
Coaxial connectors are used to transmit RF signals. They have a wide transmission frequency of up to 18 GHz or higher and are mainly used for radar, communication, data transmission and aerospace equipment. The basic structure of the coaxial connector includes: a center conductor (a positive or negative center contact); a dielectric material outside the inner conductor, or an insulator, and the outermost is an outer contact, which serves as a shield outside the coaxial cable. The same function of the layer, that is, the signal transmission, the grounding element as a shield or circuit. The coaxial connectors are mainly divided into: SMA, SMB, BNC, TNC, SMC, N-type, BMA, and the like. Male: Male (plug), thread inside, inside is the needle. Such as TNC (M). Female: Female (socket), threaded outside, inside is a hole. Such as SMA (F). RP: Reverse Polarity means that the head and the inside of the needle are opposite. Bulkhead: It is the joint of the lockable screw on the board and

Talking about the function, classification and working principle of OTG data line

  What is the OTG line? OTG is mainly applied to the connection between various devices or mobile devices for data exchange. The development of USB technology enables computers and peripheral mobile devices to transmit various data through simple USB connections. This will lead to a situation, once the mobile phone or tablet does not have a computer, we cannot manage the data of mobile devices such as mobile phones, which brings inconvenience to users. As mobile devices such as mobile phones become more and more like computers, can we imagine that we can use mobile phones as computers? Can a U disk, USB network card, etc. be connected to the phone? The answer is yes, the OTG function is to realize that the mobile phone can be connected with USB devices such as U disk, but the mobile phone has a tiny   USB   interface, which cannot meet the needs of USB ports such as U disk. So far, the OTG data cable came into being. The role of OTG is to realize data transfer between mobile devices wi

The optical fiber connector

图片
A fiber optic connector is a detachable (active) connection between an optical fiber and an optical fiber. The two end faces of the optical fiber are precisely butted together so that the optical energy output from the transmitting optical fiber can be coupled to the receiving optical fiber to the maximum extent. It also minimizes the impact on the system due to its involvement in the optical link, which is a basic requirement for fiber optic connectors. To some extent, fiber optic connectors affect the reliability and performance of optical transmission systems. Basic introduction A connecting device for re-plugging between optical fibers, also called a fiber optic movable joint. The main performance parameters (and typical values) are: insertion loss (<0.5dB), plug-and-repeat repeatability and interchangeability between connectors (500 changes). When used in a large-capacity high-speed transmission system, reflection is also required to be small. Introduction Optical fiber con
