A no-compromise platform for embedded development.
I’ve been tinkering with this dev-board for over a month now… and I’m ready to tell you how mind-blowingly fantastic it is.
GHI Electronics has been doing some great things with System on Module, .NET Gadgeteer, and their File System products. Ready for a new flavor of amazing?
This guy is the heart of the Cobra II – the G120… and I think the G stands for gravy. An NXP ARM Cortex-M3 Processor running at 120Mhz, 4.5MB of Flash, and 16 MB of RAM.
The module runs the .NET Micro Framework (NETMF) and GHI has even thrown-in a Premium Library to sweeten the deal.
* Memory Management

* USB Host and Client

Oh… and WiFi.
The dev-board comes in a no-frills version for $99 and one that includes WiFi for $149. That’s where the expensive stops… the bottom-line on the G120 SoM is about $38 in quantity.
