Starter Kit Texas Instruments TMDSSK3358

Detailed Description

It is a low-cost development platform based on the ARM® Cortex™-A8 processor that is integrated with multiple communication options such as Dual Gigabit Ethernet, WiFi and Bluetooth® connectivity.

At speeds up to 720 MHZ, the AM335x Starter Kit accelerates designs with a ready-for-production hardware and software platform. This “best value” board offers the ability to quickly evaluate the features of the processor and accompanying TI components, taking the guess work out of the hardware design and allowing both experienced and novice designers to focus on product differentiation such as advanced graphics and connectivity.

The AM335x Starter Kit (TMDSSK3358) can be used as an evaluation and development platform for low cost AM335x based solutions and networking platforms. The embedded emulation logic allows emulation and debug using standard development tools such as TI’s Code Composer Studio by just using the supplied USB cable. It is not intended for use in end products. All of the design information is freely available and can be used as the basis for the development of an AM335x based product.
