TX48

Board highlights:

•

Lowest cost 720MHz Cortex™-A8

•

Industrial temperature range

•

Standard TX-DIMM pinout

•

as small as possible - only 26mm

TX modules are complete computers, implemented on a board smaller than a

credit card, and ready to be designed into your embedded system.

The TX-48 is pin compatible with all TX modules. This approach has the

advantage of providing the developer with the potential for creating scalable

systems. All modules can be supplied with the same hardware reference

Sitara™ AM335x Processor for Industrial Applications

image, graphics processing, peripherals and industrial interface options such

as EtherCAT.

AM335x processors are broad market application processors with image,

graphics processing, and peripherals.

The AM335x processor contains these

subsections:

• Microprocessor unit (MPU) subsystem based

• POWERVR® SGX Graphics Accelerator

Subsystem for 3D graphics acceleration to

support display and gaming effects.

• Programmable Real-time Unit (PRU) sub-

system enables the user to create a variety of

digital resources beyond native peripherals of

the device. In addition, the PRU is separate

from the ARM core. This allows independent

operation and clocking to give the device

greater flexibility in complex system solutions.

• High performance interconnects provide high-

bandwidth data transfers for multiple initiators

to the internal and external memory controllers

and to on-chip peripherals. The device also

offers a comprehensive clock-management

scheme.

• The on-chip analog to digital converter (ADC)

can be coupled with the LCD controller to

provide an integrated touch screen solution. In

addition, the ADC can be used in combination

with the pulse width module to create a closed

loop motor control solution.

• Real-time Clock (RTC) provides a clock

reference on a separate power domain. This

enables battery backed clock reference.

Standard TX-DIMM pinout:

•

4-wire UARTs (x3)

•

LCD

•

I2C / PWM

•

Serial Audio Interfaces (x2)

•

4-wire SD-Card/SDIO

High-Speed communication interfaces incl. onboard Ethernet PHY / on-chip

USB PHY allows direct use of connectors/magnetics on the baseboard without

the need for additional logic:

•

10/100 Mbps Ethernet

•

480 Mbps USB OTG

•

480 Mbps USB Host

Additional interfaces like CAN, 4/5-wire resistive touch-screen, 2 UARTs are

available on TX48 specific pins. Some interfaces are multiplexed with other

functions.

Power Supply

The TX48 accepts an input voltage from various sources:

•

1-cell Li-Ion/Polymer (3.1V to 4.2V)

•

5.0V USB supply or AC wall adapter

•

3.3V
