The equivalent of a PDA of decades past using current production and
avoiding smartphones(sic) &/or Android. I was introduced to computers in
early 60 as an E.E. student. Though I don't have many C.S. credits, I
have done work related coding in 8080/8085 assembler and dBaseII (so I'm
dated ;) Most of my tech work was as engineering support or 3rd party
inspection. Once when working thru a temp-perm firm I got a interview
because the client just had meet someone who could document my strange
resume.

I just found
   https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/compute-module-3/
and
   https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/compute-module-io-board-v3/

Data sheet at
https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/computemodule/datasheets/rpi
_DATA_CM_1p0.pdf

Just brewed a mug of coffee. Time to drool over data sheet ;}!
