1 Introduction
The Development Board phyCORE-PXA255 is a universal carrier
board for start-up and programming of the PHYTEC
phyCORE-PXA255 Single Board Computer module with two high
density SMT (160 pins each, 0.63 mm pitch) pin header connectors.
The Development Board is fully equipped with all mechanical and
electrical components necessary for the speedy and secure insertion
and subsequent programming of the high-density PHYTEC phyCORE
module. These components include TFT display connection, touch
screen interface, Ethernet transformer and connector, DB-9, USB and
power socket connectors.
The phyCORE module can be plugged like a "big chip" onto the
Development Board’s mating Molex connectors. Once programmed,
the phyCORE module can be removed from the Development Board
and inserted like a "big chip" in a target hardware application. Given
the compact nature of the Development Board use of the complete
hardware platform as OEM part in human-machine-interface (HMI)
applications is also possible.
The hardware manual for this Development Board does not describe
the features and functions of the phyCORE-PXA255 SBC module, as
this is not relevant for the basic functioning of the Development
Board. For module and controller-specific features please refer to the
corresponding Hardware Manuals/User’s Manuals.
