The TI TMDS243EVM evaluation module offers an easy method to evaluate the AM2431, AM2432, and AM2434 functionality and develop prototypes for various applications. The TMDS243EVM is equipped with a Sitara™ AM2434 MCU and additional components. These components enable the user to make use of the security features on the MCU, and various device interfaces, including industrial Ethernet, standard Ethernet, peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe), fast serial interface (FSI), and others.
The onboard display demonstrates the AM243x serial peripheral interface (SPI) ports to allow the ability for local visual outputs in addition to the LEDs. Additionally, onboard current measurement capabilities are available to monitor power consumption for power-conscious applications.
A USB cable is supplied and paired with embedded emulation logic, resulting in emulation and debugging using standard development tools, such as the Code Composer Studio™ integrated development environment (IDE) (CCSTUDIO).
