TI lancerer 1GHz ARM Cortex-A8 processorer

Nye 1 GHz AM37x Sitara ARM Cortex-A8 MPUs fra Texas Instruments sigter mod højt ydende low-power applikationer (in english).

Developers can now benefit from enhanced system response time, improved boot times and increased battery life with two new TI Sitara microprocessor units (MPUs), the AM3715 and AM3703 processors, with 1GHz ARM Cortex-A8. 

These MPUs are appropriate for a wide variety of applications, such as portable data terminals, portable medical equipment, home and building automation, navigation systems, smart displays and human machine interface (HMI) industrial applications. 

The AM3703 can be utilized for applications not requiring graphics.  Offering double the graphics performance over previous Sitara devices, the AM3715 enables fluid, complex 3D rendering, picture-perfect visuals and increased graphical user interface (GUI) capabilities.  Both the AM3715 and AM3703 offer a nearly 40 percent increase in ARM performance, and developers can increase application battery life with up to 30 percent decrease in power consumption compared to previous MPUs in the Sitara f

amily. 

Scalability within the Sitara ARM MPU product family, enabled by the AM3715 and AM3703 processors, allows for increased headroom to protect product investments for customization and product lifecycle enhancements.  The AM37x MPUs are code compatible with TI’s OMAP35x and Sitara AM35x line of processors. Pin-to-pin compatibility between the AM3715 and AM3703 enables designers to easily scale their end products to the defined performance requirements. 

Linux and Windows Embedded CE software packages are provided with example applications, development environment and system utilities.  These software packages provide existing customers and developers an easy software migration path while providing a scalable silicon hardware platform for product enhancements through the Sitara ARM MPUs and DaVinci video processors.

The large community of open source developers for the BeagleBoard and BeagleBoard-xM (based on the Sitara AM37x MPU) from Digi-Key, third-party network offerings and TI-provided support resources also help make development easier for designers  www.ti.com/am37xprlp.
