The ODROID-C1+ is a powerful low-cost, and versatile single board computer. Featuring a quad-core Amlogic processor, advanced Mali GPU, and Gigabit Ethernet it can function as a home theater set-top box, a general purpose computer for web browsing, gaming and socializing, a compact tool for college or office work, a prototyping device for hardware tinkering, a controller for home automation, a workstation for software development, and much more.

Some of the modern operating systems that run on the ODROID-C1+ are Ubuntu, Android, Fedora, Arch Linux, Debian, and LibreELEC, with thousands of free open-source software packages available. The ODROID-C1+ is an ARM device — the most widely used architecture for mobile devices and embedded 32-bit computing. The ARM processor’s small size, reduced complexity and low power consumption makes it very suitable for miniaturized devices such as wearables and embedded controllers.

Features:-

* Amlogic ARM® Cortex®-A5(ARMv7) 1.5Ghz quad core CPUs

* Mali™-450 MP2 GPU (OpenGL ES 2.0/1.1 enabled for Linux and Android)

* 1Gbyte DDR3 SDRAM

* Gigabit Ethernet

* 40pin GPIOs + 7pin I2S

* eMMC4.5 HS200 Flash Storage slot / UHS-1 SDR50 MicroSD Card slot

* USB 2.0 Host x 4, USB OTG x 1 (power + data capable)

* Infrared(IR) Receiver

* Ubuntu or Android OS

* We guarantee production of the C1+ to the end of 2019, and expect production to continue long after.

The ODROID-C1+ has many advantages over the Raspberry Pi. The processor is an S805 1.5GHz Quad-core from Amlogic with 1GByte DDR3 RAM, Gigabit Ethernet and IR-receiver. The size of this computer is still only 85 x 56 mm with a weight of 40g, and offers silent operation, 2~3W average power usage, and instant portability, since it fits in a shirt pocket.

One powerful feature of the ODROID-C1+ is the row of GPIO (general purpose input/output) pins along the edge of the device. These pins are a physical interface between the board and the outside world. The 40pin interface header includes SPI, I2C, UART, ADC and GPIO function.

An SD 3.01 standard compatible UHS-1 Micro-SD card, as well as the faster eMMC module, can be ordered with the ODROID-C1+, and arrives with the popular Ubuntu operating system already installed. Insert the SD card into the slot, connect a monitor, a keyboard, a mouse, Ethernet and power cable, and that’s all you need to do to use the ODROID-C1+! Browse the web, play games, run office programs, edit photos, develop software, and watch videos right away.

The RTC, IR receiver and ADC features on the ODROID-C1+ offer many options for building great DIY projects
