AM335x Starter Kit (EVM-SK) provides a stable and affordable platform for Sitara processor evaluation

This post sponsored by Texas Instruments.

The AM335x Starter Kit (EVM-SK) provides a stable and affordable platform to quickly start evaluation of Sitara™ ARM® Cortex™-A8 AM335x processors (AM3352, AM3354, AM3356, AM3358) and accelerate development for smart appliance, industrial, and networking applications. It is a low-cost development platform based on the ARM Cortex-A8 processor that is integrated with options such as Dual Gigabit Ethernet, DDR3, and a 4.3-Inch LCD touch screen. Dual gigabit Ethernet can be used in three operational modes: switch mode, dual MAC mode, and gateway mode.

The kit is designed with DDR3 to reduce BOM costs and deliver faster memory throughput. A resistive touch LCD screen supports rotation and tilt capabilities via the on-board accelerometer. 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 Texas Instruments components. The guesswork is removed from taking the hardware design, allowing both experienced and novice designers to focus on product differentiation such as advanced graphics and connectivity.
