The AM1808 and AM1806 Sitara™ ARM9 microprocessors offer a set of code-compatible devices, which support multiple industry-specific peripherals and interfaces for embedded industrial, medical and consumer designs. The AM18x microprocessors integrate notable interfaces, such as a serial ATA, universal parallel port and TI’s unique Programmable Real-time Unit. The AM1x devices are pin-to-pin compatibility with TI’s OMAP-L1x processors to allow developers to scale up to the OMAP-L1x to integrate real-time data, video and audio processing capabilities. Develop and deploy designs quickly with the new AM1808 eXperimenter kit and the AM1808 evaluation module. All development tools include a Linux kernel 2.6.33 board support package, PRU configuration tool as well as PRU CAN, PRU UART and touch screen demos. Windows® Embedded CE and additional operating system support will be available later in 2010.
