2. C.H.I.P FAMILY

4. INTRODUCTION
 C.H.I.P. is a computer. It’s tiny and easy to use.

6.  C.H.I.P. does computer things. Work in Libre
Office and save your documents to C.H.I.P.’s
onboard storage. Surf the web and check your
email over Wi-Fi. Play games with a Bluetooth
controller. With dozens of applications and tools
preinstalled, C.H.I.P. is ready to do computer
things the moment you power it on.

7.  C.H.I.P. is a computer for students, teachers,
grandparents, children, artists, makers, hackers,
and inventors. Everyone really. C.H.I.P. is a great
way to add a computer to your life and the perfect
way to power your computer based projects.

8. C.H.I.P WORKS WITH ANY SCREEN

9.  C.H.I.P. is designed to work with any screen. Old
or new. Big or small.
 Connect via C.H.I.P.’s built-in composite output or
add a simple adapter for either VGA or HDMI.

10.  Use C.H.I.P. with Libre Office to edit spreadsheets,
create word documents, or craft presentations. It's all
there.
C.H.I.P DOES SERIOUS WORK

11.  Use the Chromium browser to surf the web. Check out
websites, send emails, watch videos, and more. The internet
awaits.

12. C.H.I.P TEACHES YOU TO CODE
 C.H.I.P. comes pre-loaded with Scratch - an easy to
learn language that teaches the basics of programing by
making stories, games, and animations

13. C.H.I.P PLAYS LOTS OF GAMES
 Connect Bluetooth controllers to C.H.I.P. and play
thousands of games both retro and new. Been missing
that amazing DOS game from your childhood? C.H.I.P.
plays it!

14. C.H.I.P..ROCKS…HARD
 Connect a MIDI keyboard to C.H.I.P. and jam. Use it as a
portable music player or as part of your favorite setup. Attach
powered speakers and hear your tunes at full volume. Rock
on!

15. C.H.I.P IS FAMILIAR
 C.H.I.P.'s open source operating system is easy
to use and navigate. Its graphical display is just like
what you're used to!

16. C.H.I.P HAS TONS OF APPS
 C.H.I.P. comes preinstalled with dozens of useful
applications, tools and amazing games. Beyond those,
C.H.I.P. can run THOUSANDS of free applications
from the open source community

17. CHIP IS PORTABLE
 PocketC.H.I. makes C.H.I.P. portable!
PocketC.H.I.P. gives C.H.I.P. a 4.3” touchscreen, QWERTY
keyboard, and 5-hour battery - in a case small enough to fit in your
back pocket

18. SPCIFICATIONS
 3,000 mAH battery
 4.3" 470px x 272px screen w/ resistive touch
 Full Super-Clicky QWERTY keyboard
 Rugged Injection Molded Shell
 Fully open source
 GPIO breakouts
 C.H.I.P. is removable via hatch

19. C.H.I.P IS FOR PROJETS
 At 1Ghz and with 512MB of DDR3 RAM, C.H.I.P.
is powerful enough to run realsoftware, and handle
the demands of a full GUI just as well as it handles
attached hardware. Best of all, CHIP runs mainline
Linux, which means it’s easier than ever to keep
teaching it new tricks without inheriting a pile of
kernel patches

20.  Speaking of power, C.H.I.P. includes a fully integrated
battery power circuit so that you can take your project
outside right away. No external power circuit needed, just
attach a 3.7v LiPo battery to C.H.I.P. and you’re ready to
go mobile.

22.  Most important, though, is that C.H.I.P. is built to be
flexible. Whether you’re building yourself a wall
clock that counts down time to the next bus at your
stop, or setting up a network of hundreds of solar-
powered air quality sensors for use in disaster
relief, you need the same basic tools to start from: a
processor, a way to exchange data, and a way to
power everything. With C.H.I.P., all the groundwork
is laid, and the only question is what you’ll do next

23. C.H.I.P IS OPEN SOURCE
 We built C.H.I.P. to make tiny powerful computers more
accessible and easier to use. A huge part of making C.H.I.P.
accessible is making sure that it can change to meet the needs of
the community. That's why both C.H.I.P. and PocketC.H.I.P. are
bothTOTALLY OPEN SOURCE. This means all hardware design
files schematic, PCB layout and bill of materials are free for you
the community to download, modify and use.
 Can’t wait to get started developing on C.H.I.P.? Join our team!
By backing at the Kernel Hacker level, you’ll get one of the first
1000 pre-release "Alpha" C.H.I.P. prototypes, hot off the reflow
line *THIS SEPTEMBER* PLUS you’ll be first in line for five
C.H.I.P.s and one PocketC.H.I.P. as soon as they are ready. This
is a special backer level meant only for hardcore linux devs who
want to make meaningful contributions toward helping us build
C.H.I.P.’s kernel software. If that sounds like the kind of challenge
you’d like to sink your teeth into, back at the Kernel Hacker level,
and join us on the march towards open source glory! ╭( ･ㅂ･)‫و‬

24. We've worked very closely with the amazing team at Allwinner
Technology to insure that all the necessary documentation and
source code for the System on Chip and Power Management
Chips used in C.H.I.P. will be available for the community to use
and learn from.
