Circuit Board Label by Me


Actual link to image album. I took apart my Magellan GPS because... well I never use it anymore because I have an iPhone now, and it was pretty cheap and really slow. So I pretty much didnt have any use for it anymore and I thought it would be cool to take it apart and see what it was all about. It was pretty simple, a circuit board, a speaker, an LCD, and a battery, that I forgot to put in the picture. Hopefully one day I will be able to use the LCD for a project.. I'm not really sure what I saw on the board. The circuitry on the board is tiny and overall, the GPS seems to me to be a low powered, single functioning cell phone. And I guess a cell phone is just a low power, mobile computer.
