Namuhla ngifuna ukukutshela ngephrojekthi ehlukile, akukho lutho olungaphansi kwe-miniPC elingana nohlamvu lwemali engu-2 euro eseluzongena emakethe ngaphansi kwegama I-VoCore2. Emathunjini ayo asitholi lutho olungaphansi kwenguqulo eguquliwe yesistimu yokusebenza yeLinux engaxhunywa kuzo zonke izinhlobo zamadivayisi ukuhlinzeka ngezinketho ezahlukahlukene kanye nokwandisa ukusebenza kwayo okuhlukahlukene.
Ngenxa yalezi zici futhi ikakhulukazi umphakathi okungemuva kwephrojekthi namhlanje, sithola izixazululo ezithakazelisa njengeqiniso lokukwazi ukuguqula i-VoCore2 ibe yi-router yonke engenantambo, ibe isango le-VPN, ibe yisiteshi se-AirPlay sokudlala umculo, ngefomethi engalahleki ngisho nesisekelo se- ifu eliyimfihlo lapho singagcina khona umculo wethu, izithombe, amavidiyo, ikhodi ethuthukile ... zonke izinhlobo zamafayela ngokujwayelekile.
IVoCore 2, i-miniPC, ngentengo nokusebenza, singayihlukanisa njengembangi yeRaspberry Pi ne-Arduino.
Uma singena kancane kule phrojekthi, sizothola ukuthi kunezinketho ezahlukahlukene zeVoCore2 ezithuthukisiwe, njengenketho eyisisekelo nokufinyelela esinayo ebizwa ngeLite, lokhu kufakwe iMediaTec MT7688AN SoC ku-580 MHz, 64 MB ye-RAM DDR2, i-8MB yesitoreji se-NOR kanye nesikhala sama-antenna e-WiFi. Intengo yale nguqulo yeVoCore 2 kuphela Amadola ka-4.
Isinyathelo esisodwa ngaphezulu sithola inguqulo ifakwe i-SoC efanayo yize lapha sesivele sithola i-128 MB ye-DDR2 RAM, i-16 MB yesitoreji se-NOR, izikhala ezimbili zezingcingo ze-WiFi nokusekelwa kwamadivayisi we-PCIe 1.1. Intengo yale nguqulo enwetshiwe ingu- Amadola ka-12. Ukwenza noma yikuphi okukhethwa kukho kukhona idokodo elithengiswa ngokwehlukana futhi elivumela ukunikezwa kwamandla alo nge-PoE (Power over Ethernet) ngaphezu kokunikeza imbobo yehedfoni, enye i-USB 2.0 kanye ne-microSD slot.
