FireFly™: Intel Atom SBC
FireFly: Evolving Mobile Device Platforms with the Intel Atom
At a fraction of the size of a typical PC motherboard, the InHand FireFly™ is one of the most energy efficient, highest performing, complete solutions for OEM developers of ultra-mobile PCs, mobile Internet devices and other mobile battery operated devices. Built around an Intel Atom processor and System Controller Hub, the InHand FireFly can be used by itself or with an expansion board for application specific functionality. As a stand-alone board, the FireFly offers a full range of peripherals including: USB 2.0 Host, USB 2.0 Client, video output, serial port, touch screen 
controller, microSD slots and an ExpressCard™ slot. Battery charging and wide voltage power input are available as well. For expandability, the FireFly has a daughter card connector with industry standard interfaces, such as PCI express, USB, SMBus and SDIO, making system integration easy. For highly secure applications, the InHand FireFly incorporates a FIPS 140.2 certified trusted platform module offering secure boot, hard disk locking and key management.

The FireFly development platform provides the entry point for Intel Atom-based designs and comes with the
hardware, software, and technical support that developers need to get their
designs off the ground.
The FireFly is equipped with InHand’s patented BatterySmart® technology. In addition to low-power design and component selection, BatterySmart extends the life of portable and mobile devices through intelligent use of the processor’s Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS). All aspects of the FireFly’s hardware and software work together to find the perfect balance between performance and battery life.
