Difference between Module and Board¶
Board: A board is a complete circuit with all the necessary components, like a microcontroller, power supply, and pins, ready for you to use. Examples include Arduino boards, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi.
Module: A module is a smaller piece of hardware designed to perform a specific function, like a sensor or motor driver, that can be connected to a board. Modules often include the necessary components (e.g., resistors, capacitors) to make them easier to use without needing extra setup. Examples include a DHT11 sensor module or a motor driver module.
