Next-generation ARM module hosts TI Cortex-A15 core
The module can be used in areas in which both graphics and computing capacity arae required, in addition to fast data communication. TI-specific PRU’s (Programmable Real Time Unit) and/or two Cortex M4 controllers can be used for industrial controllers and real-time support. The developer can use the DSP integrated in the CPU. Several module variations can be used due to the scalability of the pin-to-pin-compatible CPU derivatives
Application areas include industrial controllers, Industry 4.0 and Internet-of-Things (IoT) Gateways due to the small footprint of the TQMa57xx of only 70 x 54 mm². With camera interfaces integrated into both processors, system innovations can also be implemented that place demands on applications with a direct camera connection.
All external usable signals of the CPUs are made available via industry-standard connectors. RAM up to 2 GB DDR3L + ECC, 256 MB Quad SPI NOR flash and up to 32 MB eMMC flash is planned for the program and data on the embedded module. In addition, EEPROM and a battery-buffered and energy-saving real-time clock (RTC) from the motherboard are implemented.
