BB-BONE-000

The source for embedded design innovators and hobbyists BeagleBoard.org promotes and motivates open source development on ARM® microprocessor-based systems. The key objectives of the organizations are to: • Enable hobbyists and innovators to explore new domains and experiment with their ideas on an open platform • Enable such experiments to be conducted cost effectively – to nurture innovation – by enabling the supply of ultra-low-cost hardware platforms • Bring together communities by providing the basic infrastructure to exchange ideas BeagleBone BeagleBoard-xM The BeagleBone delivers the bare bones with a most affordable price and the greatest access to interface inte signals for sensors and controls, while eliminating the need for additional equipment with a single cable development environment. The BeagleBoard-xM has extra MIPS and extra memory, blurring the lines between desktop and embedded software development and accelerating the development of open source software on ARM. • • • • • • • • Specifi cations: S • >700-MHz superpe erscalar ARM Cortex™-A8 256-MB DDR2 RAM 1-port USB 2.0 host Integrated 10/100 Ethernet microSD slot and 2-GB microSD card with validation and demonstration image Go to BeagleBoard.org to order your BeagleBone from the Angstrom (U.S. $89) Distribution USB 2.0 flexible device port with ability to supply power On-board USB-to-serial/JTAG over shared USB device port 3.3-V 2× 46-pin peripheral with multiplexed LCD signals and battery-control expansion headers Board size: 3.4” × 2.1” Applications of BeagleBoard-xM and BeagleBone: • 3D printers and industrial robotics • Autonomous robots and flying drones • Web servers and Internet-enabled kiosks • Home media centers and automation • In-vehicle entertainment and monitoring • • • • • • • • Specifications: • 1-GHz super-scalar ARM Cortex-A8 • 512-MB LPDDR RAM • 4-port USB 2.0 hub Hub provided 10/100 Ethernet microSD slot and 4-GB microSD card with validation and demonstration image from the Angstrom Distribution USB 2.0 flexible OTG p port ort with ability to supply power DB-9 serial and 14pin JTAG connectors 1.8-V 20-pin peripheral and LCD expansion headers Camera port Go to BeagleBoard.org to order your BeagleBoard-xM DVI-D and S-video (U.S. $149) Board size: 3.25” × 3.25” • Thin clients and digital signage • Development with Ubuntu, Android™, Open Embedded, Windows® Embedded, QNX, Symbian, Debian, Fedora, Gentoo and more ... The boards from BeagleBoard.org are not intended to replace commercial development environments, but instead offer a community-supported platform that can be used as the basis for building more complete development systems and as a target for community software baselines. For more complete development environments, please consider one of the ARM microprocessor evaluation modules from Texas Instruments. www.ti.com/armmpuevm SPRT555B
