I-Raspberry Pi ibilokhu ikhona kusukela ngo-2012 njengenye yama-SBC aziwa kakhulu emakethe futhi kuyacaca ukuthi kungani. Incane kakhulu kuwo wonke ama-Hardware agcwele kuwo futhi angeke aphule ibhange ngokwezindleko, nokho kukhona imbangi entsha eringini ye-SBC ebilokhu izuza ukuduma kwe-RPi. Kopisha-amakati ayeqinisekile ukuthi azolandela… kodwa leli alinaso.
Isithombe sika-SolidRun I-HummingBoard uchungechunge lwamakhompyutha ebhodi elilodwa acishe alingane ne-RPi kodwa anamandla kakhulu futhi abiza kakhulu.
Kunamabhodi amathathu ochungechungeni anezinga lokungena i-HummingBoard-i1, i-middle-level i2 kanye ne-i2eX ethuthukisiwe, okuthi uma iqhathaniswa ne-RPi B+, iphakame ngezindlela eziningi. I-i2eX ifaka i-ARMv7 dual-core SoC (egijima @ 1.2GHz) enenkumbulo engu-1Gb kuyilapho i-RPi B+ isebenzisa i-ARM1176JZFS (egijima ku-700MHz) enenkumbulo engu-512Mb.
I-i2eX iphinde ibe nomphumela ogcwele wevidiyo we-1080p (HDMI), 10/100/1000 Ethernet futhi ingasebenzisa i-Android, Ubuntu, Debian kanye nenqwaba yezinye i-Oss. Unalokho engqondweni, i-i2eX ibiza u-$99 ngaphezu kwe-RPi yehle kakhulu ngo-$35 kodwa uyakuthola lokho okukhokhelayo. I-i1 (i-single-core) ne-i2 (i-dual-core) isebenzisa u-$45 no-$75 ngokulandelana, nokho ngisho ne-HummingBoard-i1 ishesha kune-Pi.
Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi yibaphi abasebenzisi bebhodi abakhethayo, into eyodwa iqinisekile ngokuthi umncintiswano ushisa emhlabeni we-SBC.
