Simply put, computers are complicated, but they are also essential in modern society, as they help us stay connected to the digital world. Computers, in fact, come in many varieties with different uses. One of the most commonly used when you need a less complicated computer is single board computers (SBCs). 

What is a Single Board Computer (SBC)?

Single board computers are designed differently from your typical desktop computer. SBCs contain a single circuit board that handles memory storage, input/output, contains a microprocessor, and all the other necessary features. They are self-contained and do not rely on expansions to do different functions, meaning that the cost and need for additional circuit boards, connectors, and more are reduced. 

What Are Single Board Computers (SBCs) Used For?

Single board computers are compact, light-weight, power-efficient, and reliable, making them great for many uses. Such as an Arm Raspberry Pi, SBCs can be used for various purposes, most commonly embedded applications. This includes learning how to program media players, robotics, home automation, and basic computing tasks like web browsing.
