Baseboard for the Cubieboard

A developer board like the Cubieboard is very extensible and can connect to a variety of devices including sensors. To simplify the connection to additional devices, it is common to have an additional printed circuit called daughterboard or baseboard.

edit (15 Jan 2013): This board is a baseboard, because it acts as a base to the Cubieboard. The Cubieboard can take power from this baseboard.
