- makomk 13y agoThe Galileo's one of those boards where it's very important to pay attention to the fine print. For example, the GPIO controller is hanging off a relatively slow I2C port, so access to GPIO is much, much slower than even the lowest-end Arduino. Also, it's a modified 486 which takes multiple clock cycles to carry out many instructions that are single-cycle on modern ARM, so it's not as fast at arithmetic as the clock speed would suggest.
- tdicola 13y agoBe careful though, the Galileo emulates AVR code and is orders of magnitude slower than a real Arduino. Don't expect to pick up any shield and make it work, unfortunately.
- jpwright 13y agoThe Galileo actually only emulates a subset of the Arduino libraries. The AVR libraries themselves are, for the most part, not supported. This makes many popular libraries unusable even when hardware is not an issue.
