MAC The Media Access Control (MAC) protocol enables several terminals or
network nodes to communicate in a LAN, or other multipoint networks.
PCIe PCI Express (PCIe) is a communications bus that uses dual data lines
for full-duplex (two-way) serial (point-to-point) communications between
the SBC components and/or expansion cards and the SBC chipsets.
Each line has a 2.5 Gbps data transmission rate and a 250 MBps
sustained data transfer rate.
POST The Power-on Self Test (POST) is the pre-boot actions the system
performs when the system is turned-on.
QVGA Quarter Video Graphics Array (QVGA) refers to a display with a
resolution of 320 x 240 pixels.
RAID Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks (RAID) refers to redundantly
backing up data on multiple disks to ensure that if one disk fails, the
data is not lost and can be restored from the remaining disks in the
array.
RAM Random Access Memory (RAM) is a form of storage used in computer.
RAM is volatile memory, so it loses its data when power is lost. RAM
has very fast data transfer rates compared to other storage like hard
drives.
SATA Serial ATA (SATA) is a serial communications bus designed for data
transfers between storage devices and the computer chipsets. The
SATA bus has transfer speeds up to 1.5 Gbps and the SATA II bus has
data transfer speeds of up to 3.0 Gbps.
S.M.A.R.T Self Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T) refers
to automatic status checking technology implemented on hard disk
drives.
UART Universal Asynchronous Receiver-transmitter (UART) is responsible for
