Product Brief
Genuino* 101 with Intel® Curie™ Module
Introduction
The Genuino* 101 development
board (branded Arduino* 101 in the
US only) is designed to provide
support for educational institutions
that want to broaden their physical
computing curricula.
Designed with Arduino* Uno R3
compatibility in mind, the
Genuino* 101 with Intel® Curie™
Module board gives students added
performance from the 32-bit Intel®
Quark™ SE core and features such
as Bluetooth* Smart and integrated
motion sensors in a familiar form
factor.
The Genuino* 101 also features 5 V
tolerant inputs, compatible with a
vast array of available shields.
Intel® Curie™ module
The Intel® Curie™ module packs
accelerometer and gyro sensors
and Bluetooth* Low Energy into an
8 × 11 mm footprint.
The Intel® Curie™ module features a
dual-core architecture — a host
processor and a sensor subsystem
— with shared on-die SRAM and
flash memory. The host processor is
built around a low power 32 MHz
Intel® Quark™ SE core, and its
instruction set features Intel® archi-
tecture and Intel® Pentium® x86
compatibility, with the exception of
FPU instructions.
Intel® Quark™ SE core benefits
