OMAP-L138 System on Module (SOM)

Beacon EmbeddedWorks' OMAP-L138 SOM is a compact, product-ready hardware and software solution that fast-forwards embedded designs while reducing risk and controlling cost.

Based on Texas Instruments' OMAP-L138 processor and designed in the SOM-M1 form factor, the OMAP-L138 module offers essential features for handheld and embedded networking applications. The OMAP-L138 SOM-M1 features the superset OMAP-L138 processor but also supports the TMS320C6748 digital signal processor (DSP).

The OMAP-L138 SOM-M1 brings an industry-leading low-power ARM926 core to a small, off-the-shelf solution. The standard SOM-M1 form factor allows developers to reuse existing baseboard designs when upgrading to new OMAP processors, which extends roadmap possibilities for end products.

The compact size of the OMAP-L138 SOM-M1 is ideal for medical patient monitoring wearables and other portable instrumentation applications; the built-in Serial ATA (SATA) controller provides fast access to large-capacity storage devices. The OMAP-L138 SOM M1 allows for powerful versatility, long life, and greener products for medical, industrial, audio, and communication applications.
