Introduction
The Intel
broad variety of sensors and peripherals. In addition to several fixed-function
interfaces: USB 3.0 OTG, micro-HDMI, CSI-2 (MIPI), M.2 for SSD, M.2 for LTE, micro-
SD, and HSUART, the Compute Board is designed with an IO Expansion Connector
(Section 3.7) that exposes 6 processor GPIOs, 28 FPGA GPIOs, and 5 FGPA analog
sense inputs (ADC). Chapter 3 describes the pinout for both the fixed-function and
programmable interface connectors as well as the method for accessing these
interfaces via software. To access the IO Expansion Connector, developers can either
use the supplied 80-pin Accessories Connector (Section 3.8) or build a custom
expansion / breakout board to suit their needs. Mating connector part numbers are
provided in Section 3.1.
This document also defines the function of the 8 LEDs found on the Intel
Compute Board (Chapter 5) and how a developer can control the two LEDs that are
user-programmable.
Lastly, some details about the Intel
The Intel
Drone. The Flight Controller plugs directly into the Intel
dedicated connector. For developers using the Ready to Fly Drone, the block diagram
and usage information provided in the referenced web article can be helpful when
working with one of the supported autopilots: PX4* and ArduPilot*, or for custom
flight control firmware.
