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 and the processor itself are each on separate PCBs. There is a space for a WWAN&GPS module. This may be populated with various pin-compatible chips designed for different regions, or not at all, depending on which Pyra model you buy.
