Lime
Lime
Is a new competitor to Raspberry Pi.
Advantages comparative to Pi:
- Faster
- Uses less power (as little as 0.3A, instead of 2-3A under load)
- SATA socket
- LVDS LCD socket
- ~160 GPIOs (4 big slots, and one small; one big slot shared with LCD socket)
- Reserved 1mm serial pins (not shared with GPIO!)
Disadvantages:
- Released later (end of 2013)
- Smaller community support (but sunxi community is growing)
- ARM Mali GPU is supposed to be theoretically less powerful than Raspberry Pi's VideoCore
- GPIO have 0.5mm pin spacing instead of 1mm like in Pi and Arduino
