86Duino es una plataforma integrada de código abierto basada en Vortex86EX SoC, con hardware y software integrados y fáciles de usar. Esta placa compatible con Arduino es compatible con muchos sistemas operativos x86, así como con los que se ejecutan en el sistema base original de Arduino.
The 86Duino is a high performance and fully static 32-bit x86 processor board compatible with Windows OS, Linux and most popular 32-bit RTOS. It integrates PCIE bus, DDR3, ROM controller, xISA, I2C, SPI, IPC (Internal Peripheral Controllers with DMA and interrupt timer/counter included), Fast Ethernet, FIFO UART, USB2.0 and SD/SATA controller within a single package to form a system-on-a-chip (SOC).
SOM-128-EX is a subtype of an embedded system and more likely an extension concept of system on chip. The reason we specially design this is that we understand what the difficult part of developing a new system is. Usually, a tailored system for a special application would involve high overhead cost; however, if one adopts SOM, one can easily implement the already laid out pins of I/Os and connectors for consumers who want a customized system without committing months of design and paperwork.
