SMARC T335x Carrier Board Hardware Design Guide, Document Revision 1.2
Chapter 1 Introduction
This document is created to guide users to design
SMARC
(formerly
ULP-COM) compliant carrier board. It will focus only on the interfaces in
SMARC T335X
pinouts and related peripherals. Some interfaces like camera
interface are defined in
SMARC
specification, but not in
SMARC T335X
, will
not be addressed in this document. This document should be used in
conjunction with the
SMARC T335X
user’s manual and
SMART-BEE
carrier
schematics.
This document also contains reference schematics for different interfaces.
These interfaces are described in the user’s manual of
SMARC T335X
module.
SMARC T335X
module does not feature the full set of all interfaces that
defined in
SMARC
specification. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to read
the user’s manual of the
SMARC T335X
modules that are required to be
support by the carrier board.
This carrier board hardware design guide for
SMARC T335X
computer on
module helps walk hardware designers through the various stages of
designing a carrier board on this platform. Using this document, hardware
designers can efficiently locate the resources they need at every step in the
board design flow.
An evaluation carrier
SMART-BEE
is available for
SMARC T335X
computer on
module.
SMART-BEE
has all the interfaces on
SMARC T335X
module in the
form of either connectors or pin headers and is a good reference for hardware
designers who would like to develop their own carrier boards.
All examples of this document are based on
SMART-BEE
carrier board that is
available from Embedian. This document also provides a collection of useful
documentation, application reports, and design recommendations.
