l
 No specific purpose up to the user. Sends/receives digital (1/0 or on/off) signals.
Like GPIOs, slower but can send/receive a wider range of signals (analog)
Allows for communication between components within the board
Used for serial (bit by bit) and parallel (all at once) communication
Used for short distance serial communication
Used to digitally represent an analog signal
One HDMI port, allows you to connect the board to a monitor/screen
Two USB ports, normally used to attach a keyboard and mouse to the board
One MicroUSB port, used mainly for the Android Debug Bridge
Used to sufficiently power the board (12 V)
Flash memory on the board (embedded) and not an external storage
Volatile memory (for quick read/write access)

Used to determine location

Used to be known as Acorn RISC Machines, this is the kind of instruction set the DragonBoard
410cs processor uses
CPU design used to improve performance by using simplified instructions (using fewer cycles per
instruction)
The new age, an environment in which objects, humans, and even animals can communicate and
send information without human-to- human or human-to-computer interaction.
A software that controls all of the computers software/hardware operations.
A software application which provides comprehensive tools for programmers for software
development.
Software developing tools used to create applications for a certain software/hardware platform(i.e.
Android)
tool used to write programs in C/C++ for Android devices
A tool which allows one to emulate na actual Android device virtually on ones computer.
A command line tool which lets one communicate with a connected Android device or an
emulated virtual device
file format which is used for distributing and installing application software on Android
