This is the largest PCB in the Pyra, with a wide range of different functions. It could be compared to the motherboard in a traditional desktop computer, with the addition of a keyboard and gaming controls on one side. Display-support hardware (the Displayboard) and the processor itself (see CPU-Board) are each on separate PCBs.
The Mainboard includes the following hardware:
Modem
Main Article: Modem
There is a space for an optional WWAN&GPS module. This will be populated with various Pin-compatible Modules designed for different Regions, or not at all, depending on which Pyra Model you buy.
GPS Hardware:
- Infineon BGM1034N7 - GPS and GLONASS Front-End Module, a low-noise filter and pre-ampliflier (LNA)
- The actual GPS/GLONASS receiver is part of the modem chip.
Rumble
Haptic feedback is provided through vibration generated by an electric Motor with an unbalanced mass on its Driveshaft. [1]
Hardware:
- Precision Micro 304-106 - 5mm x 7mm vibration motor, 3V @ 37.5mA, 9500rpm, 0.6g amplitude
Storage
Main Article: Storage
The Mainboard includes a combination microSD/SIM card slot which, with the addition of a microSD card, can be used for internal storage up to 200GB. With the addition of two accessible regular-sized SD card slots (each capable of up to 512GB storage), that's 1.2 TB of removable storage.
Connectivity
The Pyra connects to WWAN&GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth from Modules on the Mainboard.
I²C connectivity
The Pyra mainboard contains several I²C busses. 4 of them travel through the mainboard and are accessible from them.
The following devices are connected to I²C.
