MYIR introduces low-cost ARM boards for TI Sitara AM335x MPUs

MYIR has released a development board family – the MYD-AM335X based on the 720MHz Texas Instruments (TI) Sitara AM335x (AM3352, AM3354, AM3356, AM3357, AM3358 and AM3359) ARM Cortex-A8 Microprocessors (MPUs), which are ideal for home automation, industrial automation, enterprise/ educational tablets, portable navigation devices and networking. The boards have a commonly-used base board and use MYC-AM335X series CPU modules as core boards. They can support Linux, Android and Windows CE7 high-level operating systems, and work in harsh environments of -40º to +85º Celsius for industrial embedded applications.

MYIR is using the 15x15 mm, 0.8-mm ball pitch, ZCZ package AM335x ARM CPU on the MYC-AM335X CPU module, which is a SOM (System on Module). It has the core components of an AM335x processor, 512 MB DDR3 SDRAM, 512 MB Nand Flash and Gigabit Ethernet PHY chip-on-board, and can be served as the core of your embedded system. It has two 2.0 mm pitch 60-pin male expansion connectors, one 2.0 mm pitch 26-pin interface and one 2.0 mm pitch 10-pin interface to allow extensions of all the controller signals and ports to the base board through headers and connectors, thus exposing more features of the AM335x Cortex-A8 processors.
