This multi-purpose development board has been designed as a carrier board for the PXA255 DIMM Module. It does not only provide a flexible development environment necessary to explore the full functionality of the PXA255 DIMM Module, but when used with the module and 2.5" HDD, the set turns into a ready-to-use adapter-powered PXA255 EMBEDDED PC containing all the standard PC peripherals.
The connectivity to the passive and active LCDs with 4-wire resistive touch screens is realized via the carrier board connectors and headers. The keyboard and mouse can be connected via two PS2 connectors. Other interfaces are two 3,3V PCMCIA slots and one 3,3V Compact FLASH connector, while only two of them can be used at the same time. As the board communication interface serves RS232 connector. To work with on-board software easily and effectively, use terminal station. You may also use SSH network protocol. Your own applications can be stored in DIMM Module, on-board FLASH memory, or in the external Compact FLASH card.
The board further includes Audio IN and OUT, MIC IN, reset button, 2x Ethernet, UARTs, IrDA, SSP, USB, I2C, and many more. The PXA255 DIMM Base Board has on board 5V switching power supply with input voltage ranging from 9V to 30V. The fanless carrier board also provides configurable switches, buttons and GPIO pins for user friendly interaction thus simplifying programming of one's own applications.
