In-Depth Information
The Gertboard is a very advanced device, and isn't suitable for every project. For many simple
uses, a cheaper passive add-on board like the Slice of Pi will usually be enough. However, for
in-depth experimentation of just what is possible with the Raspberry Pi's BC2835 processor
and/or to ensure that you'll be able to interface almost any hardware with your Pi, it's a great
choice and a powerful extension to the Pi's already impressive abilities.
