Galileo is a microcontroller board based on the Intel® Quark SoC X1000 Application Processor, a 32-bit Intel Pentium-class system on a chip (datasheet). It’s the first board based on Intel® architecture designed to be hardware and software pin-compatible with Arduino shields designed for the Uno R3. Digital pins 0 to 13 (and the adjacent AREF and GND pins), Analog inputs 0 to 5, the power header, ICSP header, and the UART port pins (0 and 1), are all in the same locations as on the Arduino Uno R3. This is also known as the Arduino 1.0 pinout.

Galileo is designed to support shields that operate at either 3.3V or 5V. The core operating voltage of Galileo is 3.3V. However, a jumper on the board enables voltage translation to 5V at the I/O pins. This provides support for 5V Uno shields and is the default behavior. By switching the jumper position, the voltage translation can be disabled to provide 3.3V operation at the I/O pins.

Of course, the Galileo board is also software compatible with the Arduino Software Development Environment (IDE), which makes usability and introduction a snap. In addition to Arduino hardware and software compatibility, the Galileo board has several PC industry standard I/O ports and features to expand native usage and capabilities beyond the Arduino shield ecosystem. A full sized mini-PCI Express slot, 100Mb Ethernet port, Micro-SD slot, RS-232 serial port, USB Host port, USB Client port, and 8MByte NOR flash come standard on the board.

Detail of Intel Architecture Supported Features The genuine Intel processor and surrounding native I/O capabilities of the Clanton SoC provides for a fully featured offering for both the maker community and students alike. It will also be useful to professional developers who are looking for a simple and cost effective development environment to the more complex Intel® Atom processor and Intel® Core processor-based designs. 400MHz 32-bit Intel® Pentium instruction set architecture (ISA)-compatible processor o 16 KBytes on-die L1 cache 512 KBytes of on-die embedded SRAM Simple to program: Single thread, single core, constant speed ACPI compatible CPU sleep states supported An integrated Real Time Clock (RTC), with an optional 3V “coin cell” battery for operation between turn on cycles 10/100 Ethernet connector Full PCI Express mini-card slot, with PCIe 2.0 compliant features Works with half mini-PCIe cards with optional converter plate Provides USB 2.0 Host Port at mini-PCIe connector USB 2.0 Host connector Support up to 128 USB end point devices USB Device connector, used for programming Beyond just a programming port - a fully compliant USB 2.0 Device controller 10-pin Standard JTAG header for debugging Reboot button to reboot the processor Reset button to reset the sketch and any attached shields   Storage options: Default - 8 MByte Legacy SPI Flash main purpose is to store the firmware (or bootloader) and the latest sketch. Between 256KByte and 512KByte is dedicated for sketch storage. The download will happen automatically from the development PC, so no action is required unless there is an upgrade that is being added to the firmware. Default 512 KByte embedded SRAM, enabled by the firmware by default. No action required to use this feature. Default 256 MByte DRAM, enabled by the firmware by default. Optional micro SD card offers up to 32GByte of storage USB storage works with any USB 2.0 compatible drive 11 KByte EEPROM can be programmed via the EEPROM library.
