Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] What single-board computers (SBCs) work well with

I’m looking for recommendations for a small computer to use in an embedded GNURadio product. By “small” I mean small enough that the whole system can be portable, like the size of a lunchbox or smaller. It will connect to an Ettus USRP B200mini-i, which communicates using USB 3.0. The application is fairly compute intensive, so a fast, multi-core processor will make life easier.

I’ve researched a few Single Board Computers (SBCs). Low-end SBCs don’t look like a good idea. For example, the Rasperry Pi 3 has a relatively slow processor, and only supports USB 2.0. Here are a few products I’m considering:

LattePanda SBC

Intel Cherry Trail Z8350 quad-core processor 1.44 GHz
USB 3.0 x 1, USB 2.0 x 2
Size: 3.5" x 2.75"
RAM: 2–4 GB DDRL3L
Storage: 32–64 GB eMMC
Can run Ubuntu
Price: about $120.00

UP Board SBC

Intel Atom x5 Z8350 64-bit, quad core processor 1.44GHz
USB 3.0 x 1, USB 2.0 x 4
Size: 3.37" x 2.22"
RAM: 4GB
Storage: 64 GB eMMC
Can run Ubuntu
Price: about $150.00

INTEL NUC Board NUC7i5DNBE

Intel® Core™ i5-7300U dual core processor, up to 2.6 GHz
USB 3.0 x 1, USB 2.0 x 2
Size: 4” x 4”
RAM: up to 32 GB
Storage: M.2 SSD slot - any size(?)
Comes with Windows 10, but can probably run Ubuntu
Price: about $400.00

Does anyone have any experience with these, or have another recommendation?

Thanks,

GDB has a 'break' feature; why doesn't it have 'fix' too?
