Intel Galileo Gen 2
Overview
The 2nd generation Intel® Galileo board provides a programmable control PCB for the Maker community, students, and professional developers. Based on the Intel® Quark™ SoC X1000, a 32-bit Intel® Pentium® processor-class system on a chip (SoC), the genuine Intel® processor and surrounding native I/O capabilities of the Intel® Galileo board (Gen 2) provide a fully featured offering for a wide variety of applications.
Arduino-certified and designed to be hardware and software pin-compatible with a wide range of Arduino Uno R3 shields, the Intel® Galileo Gen 2 board also provides a simpler and more cost-effective development environment compared to the Intel® Atom™ processor- and Intel® Core™ processor-based designs.
2nd Generation Product Enhancements
The Intel Galileo board (Gen 2) delivers improved features and functionality in the following areas:
- 12 GPIOs fully native for greater speed and improved drive strength.
- 12-bit PWM for more precise control of servos and smoother response.
- 12 V Power-over-Ethernet capable.
- Power supplies from 7 V to 15 V are supported.
- Serial console UART header is compatible with FTDI USB converters.
- Console UART1 can be redirected to Arduino* headers in sketches, which can eliminate the need for soft-serial.
Arduino Uno R3*-Compatible
Getting familiar with the board and developing applications is a snap because the Intel Galileo board (Gen 2) matches the Arduino 1.0 pinout and is also software-compatible with the Arduino Software Development Environment.
Open Source Hardware
The Intel Galileo board (Gen 2) is an open source hardware design. Schematics, Cadence Allegro board files, and bill of materials (BOM) are freely available for download.
Extensive Expandability
In addition to Arduino hardware and software compatibility, the Intel Galileo board (Gen 2) includes the following industry-standard I/O ports and features:
- Full-sized mini-PCI Express* slot
- 10/100 Mbps Ethernet* RJ45 port with PoE support
- Micro-SD slot
- TTL UART 6-pin header
- USB 2.0 Host port
- USB 2.0 Client port
Target Software
Use the Arduino Software Development Environment to create programs for Galileo called "sketches." To run a sketch on the board:
- Connect power.
- Connect the board’s USB Client port to a computer.
- Upload the sketch using the IDE interface.
