Poblano 43C Single-Board Computer
The Poblano 43C improves upon the Pepper 43C SBC by incorporating TI's beefier AM4378 processor (vs. TI AM335x). It also contributes 8 GB embedded NAND Flash storage to the Pepper design.
Like the Pepper 43C, the Poblano is compatible with the Newhaven 4.3" capacitive multi-touch LCD touchscreen and provides audio I/O, WiFi, BLE and USB OTG making for a powerful handheld development platform.
The connector for Newhaven Capacitive Multi-Touch Screens is ideal for providing a user interface for handheld devices needing multi-touch graphical input with audio for industrial, medical, and automation systems.
It also includes:
- Connector for Caspa family of cameras
- Gigabit Ethernet
- 20-pin GPIO
- RTC
