Bigtreetech CB1
I picked up the Bigtreetech CB1 (CM4 compatible) along with their Pi4B adapter (base for the CB1 or the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4) for a stellar price. They are currently selling the CB1 module with the Pi4B for $36.98. Even though it only has 1GB of RAM, I figured it was worth a shot…
sbc_gpio: Pi 4B vs Rock 5B
One of my goals over the past couple of years has been to find a suitable replacement for the Raspberry Pi 4B as supplies have been low and costs have been high. During the past couple of years, I’ve purchased several different boards to test out. Now that I have a GPIO abstraction layer and…
Radxa Rock 5B Setup for sbc_gpio
If you are looking for the results of the sbc_gpio tests, please check out our sbc_gpio Pi 4B vs Rock 5B comparison. Configuring the Radxa Rock 5B for our sbc_gpio test require 1x I2C, 2x SPI, 1x UART and 2x IR (1 Tx and 1 Rx). All the configuration will need to be done directly in the /boot/config.txt file….
