Impact of Carbon Neutrality on the Single Board Computer Industry

As the core carrier of the digital economy, the computer industry will play an important role in working towards the goal of carbon neutrality. First, reduce the largest energy consumption in its own industry. In the era of the Internet of Everything brought about by 5G, artificial intelligence, big data and other technologies, the amount of data is growing exponentially, requiring massive servers to provide sufficient computing power, and downstream customers will tend to choose energy-saving products. Single Board Computer products have the advantages of low power consumption and energy saving. From this point of view, the Single Board Computer product is in line with the characteristics of the enterprise's demand for products under the concept of carbon neutrality.

Market Drivers Analysis

Low-cost advantage of Single Board Computer
Single Board Computer A complete computer built on a single circuit board, including a microprocessor, memory, Ethernet, I/O, video, and audio output. The core architecture of the design is the microprocessor. Single Board Computers become more cost-effective by increasing the density of integrated circuits to reduce the number of boards required and eliminate the connector and bus driver circuits. Looking at the computer market as a whole, SBCs are small, low-cost computers designed for a variety of applications. They are usually powered by a single processor and equipped with a range of functions such as memory, storage, and networking capabilities. This makes them ideal for businesses that need to quickly and easily deploy a range of applications. Compared with desktop computers, Single Board Computer has the obvious advantage of low cost. Unlike traditional desktop computers, Single Board Computers don't require a separate case, power supply, or other peripherals. In addition, Single Board Computer is highly energy efficient, which can help businesses reduce energy costs. The cost advantage is conducive to attracting more developers to conduct research and development and is conducive to the large-scale deployment of mature products. The low-cost advantage of Single Board Computer is one of the driving factors driving the development of the industry.
Challenges
Disadvantages of Single Board Computers
Compared with industrial computers/servers, the lack of performance is one of the biggest disadvantages of Single Board Computer. Limited by volume and energy consumption, so far, Single Board Computer has not been able to provide computing power and graphics processing power that keep pace with traditional computers. Additionally, Single Board Computers can sometimes have less processing power, memory, and storage than traditional computers, which can affect their ability to perform demanding tasks. In addition, the limited expansion options provided by the Single Board Computer for adding additional hardware components may hamper its scalability for specific applications. Also, since there are multiple Single Board Computer models available, in a variety of sizes, form factors, and interface, so choosing the ideal model for a particular project can be challenging. The disadvantage of Single Board Computer is one of the challenges facing the development of the industry.
