SOM fast tracks IIoT, robotics and comms development
Summary
This SOM also packs a ton of innovative features that make it excellent for mission-critical applications, such as an integrated MCU subsystem and diagnostic libraries, inline ECC, an isolated Cortex-M4 core that can work independently from the SoC, secure boot with hardware-enforced root of trust and more. Measuring in at just 47 x 30mm in size, these SOMs pack far more than the AM64x processor, including onboard eMMC storage, a sub-1GHz MCU for radio communication, and up to three gigabit Ethernet physical layer transceivers. Additionally, SOMs can be optioned with TI’s CC1312 multiprotocol and multiband SimpleLink wireless MCU for sub 1GHz communication. “Industrial automation, robots, smart buildings and more all require powerful applications processing capabilities as well as robust, real-time communications for precise machine control,” said Dr. Atai Ziv, CEO at SolidRun. Our family of AM64x-based SOMs streamlines hardware specifications and enables developers to quickly design compact, precise, and connected edge devices and industrial network solutions for next-generation industrial IoT and automation.” SolidRun also offers Hummingboard-T AM64X Base and Hummingboard-T AM64X Pro carrier boards that are perfect for prototyping with the AM64x processor-equipped SOMs.
