Seeedstudio Quantum Tiny Linux Development Kit – With SoM and Expansion Board

This is an interesting product for anyone who wants to develop a low cost stand alone Linux development system.
Not a totally new product, but has been out of stock for some time, and is now available again.
I have no affiliation with Seeedstudio, just like their products.
I will order one in a few days, load it with python, and start playing, probably write some sort of tutorial when I find a practical use for it.

Here's the companies description of the unit:
Quote:Quantum Tiny Linux Development Kit consists of a core board which is the SoM (System on Module) and an expansion board as the carrier board.

The SoM, Quark-N, is based on Allwinner H3, Quad-core Cortex-A7, and ARM Mali400 MP2 GPU. The carrier board, Atom-N, leads out a row of golden finger pins to realize I/O expansion, expand SPI, I2C, UART, GPIO, and other useful interfaces.

The kit may be the smallest Linux development board on the market which is suitable for scenarios such as a personal server, intelligent voice assistant, and robotic development.

features:
  • Ultra-small (31mmx22mm) and highly integrated Quad-core Cortex-A7 Linux SoM (System on Module)
  • Expansion board (40mmx35mm) with rich peripherals and interfaces: Microphone, Gyroscope, Accelerometer,4 x Buttons (GPIO-KEY, Uboot, Recovery, Reset) and a TFT display
  • Integrates a complete ARM-Linux system for advanced development
  • Ability to design your own baseboard due to the M.2 interface
  • Wide range of applications such as a personal server, intelligent voice assistant, and robotic development.
