Spectrum Digital: OMAP-L137 EVM Starter Kit

Overview

The OMAP-L137OMAP-L137 EVM  is a standalone development platform that enables users to evaluate and develop applications for the Texas Instruments OMAP-L137 EVALOMAP-L137 EVAL EVAL processor.  Schematics and application notes are available to ease hardware development and reduce time to market The EVM comes with a full complement of on board devices that suit a wide variety of application environments.

The OMAP-L137 EVALOMAP-L137 EVAL EVAL on the EVM interfaces to on-board peripherals through the 16-bit wide multiplexed EMIF interface pins. The SDRAM memory is connected to its own dedicated 32 bit wide bus. An on-board AIC3106AIC3106 codec allows the DSP to transmit and receive analog audio signals. The I2C bus is used for the codec control interface, while the McASP controls the audio stream. Signal interfacing is done through 3.5mm audio jacks that correspond to microphone input, headphone output, line input, and line output.

An included +5V external power supply is used to power the board. On-board switching voltage regulators provide the CPU core voltage, +3.3V, +1.8V for peripheral interfacing. The board is held in reset by the on board power controller until these supplies are within operating specifications. The EVM is designed to work with TI’s Code Composer Studio IDECode Composer Studio IDE, or MontaVista tool environments. Code Composer communicates with the board through an on board JTAG emulator. This EVM is shipped with an EVM specific Code Composer Studio environment.

Key Applications:

• Professional Audio ,Industrial Control,High-Speed Encoding,USB, Networking
