  • ATOMIC Pi - an alternative to the Raspberry Pi with Atom x5 for PLN 127
    The ATOMIC Pi is a Kickstarter-funded project for Team IoT's new single board computer.

    The heart of the computer is the Atom x5-Z8350 chip from Intel containing a quad-core x86-64 processor clocked at 1.92GHz and an HD graphics processor.

    The computer is running Kubuntu. The computer has 2GB of RAM and 16GB of eMMC (flash) memory soldered. The role of mass memory can also be played by an SD memory card with a capacity of up to 256GB.

    The computer enables wireless connectivity in Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 4 standards.

    The computer has: a Gigabit Ethernet (RJ45) port, 2 USB ports (1 USB 3.0 port and 1 USB 2.0 port) and an expansion connector containing the GPIO interface pins.

    In addition, the computer has soldered: 9-axis accelerometer with a compass.

    The dimensions are: 130 x 100 x 50 mm. The weight has not been provided. Supply voltage - 5V. Typical power consumption is 4 to 15 W. Cooling is passive. Operating temperature range, relative humidity range, vibration and shock resistance have not been determined.

    More information on the ATOMIC Pi can be found at project website .

    The cost of the computer is $ 34 (about PLN 127), which makes it three times cheaper than Aaeon's UP with a similar configuration. A set with a base plate containing, among others universal contact area for prototyping costs 49 dollars (about 185 zlotys). The shipping cost in the United States is US $ 11 (about PLN 41). Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not ship the computer outside the United States and you will have to use an intermediary if you want to order it to Poland.

    Are any of you interested in ordering this computer?

    Where?

    Probably in place of the heat sink :) .

    Hello
    Super design, seriously considering the order :)
    You have to order it to your friends in the USA and wait for them to go to Poland.
    greetings

    Hello
    Linux (KUBUNTU) on the Atom shouldn't cause any major problems with handling, it's more of a classic.
    Once built into the monitor, it can be an interesting alternative to browsing the Internet, writing texts (LibreOffice!), Watching movies (KODI), and at the same time not taking up too much space on your desk.
    The Arduino IDE, playing with CNC and many other ideas can easily handle it.
    KUBUNTU has a much greater resistance to viruses, which will allow you to work more calmly.
    I only lack one thing in Linux-based systems, Total Commander, without it it's hard to work and the analogs of this program with which I came across were not very stable.
    In terms of hardware, I do not have a M2 SSD :( .
    greetings

    I just think that due to the fact that this is Intel, this support should be "automatic". I do not mean that you can bet Windows on it, but e.g. hardware video decoding should work. What do you think about it?

    Pretty cool
    Pretty powerful processor
    But this heat sink is probably a bit of an exaggeration ...
    this processor consumes 2 / 4W and the heat sink as if it were from 10 - 20 W :)

    It is true ...
    For me, all these kickstarters are a way of getting helmets from losers in general.

    Pulling the money yes, but sometimes something serious comes out of a kickstarter project.

    A little terminal without the housing of a well-known company. I only have this association?

    I have a question, is it worth buying such a set? Ev. How many max to bid?
