Overview

Embest DevKit8500D Evaluation Kit is an ideal hardware and software platform with the

incorporation of Texas Instruments’ DaVinci DM3730 media processor, as well as supporting

running high-level operating systems such as Linux, WinCE and Android. it is a complete

development system accelerating time to market for more media-rich, portable applications

include navigation systems, media players, medical patient monitoring devices, in dustrial test and

measurement devices, industrial vision and portable communications.

The Evaluation Board

The DevKit8500D Evaluation Board is a high-performance compact board based on TI DM3730

processor (ARM Cortex-A8 Core ~1GHzMHz paired with a TMS320C64x+ DSP ~800MHz),

with 512MByte DDR SDRAM and 512MByte NAND Flash as well as a reserved iNAND design

to expand the flash storage capabilities. The board exposes many other hardware interfaces

including serial port, USB, LCD/TSP, DVI-D, S-Video, Ethernet, TF, keyboard, camera, SPI, I2C

and JTAG.

The DevKit8500D Evaluation Board is able to support WinCE OS and Linux. The WinCE OS

software package includes WinCE6.0.15 BSP and drivers of which many are in source code; and

the Linux BSP contains the compile tools, the source code of the boot loader and the Linux 2.6.32

and the device drivers. The board has two methods to boot the system and you can boot the board

from either TF card or NAND Flash. Besides, it is provided with Android 2.2 demo with driver

source code. Embest gives instructions on how to boot Android demo image from NAND flash

with TF card.

The Evaluation Kit

The DevKit8500D Evaluation Kit includes the DevKit8500D evaluation board and all necessary

accessories to help users start their design of multimedia applications. It is preloaded with Linux

OS in NAND flash and WinCE OS in TF card. User can display the system by using a 4.3" or

7”TFT LCD and Touch screen or using a DVI-D monitor with an HDMI to DVI-D cable, or using

a TV for NTSC or PAL video display. Embest provides user manual, schematic drawing,

datasheet documents and software BSP to help customers better understand and use the kit.

Note: TI’s DM3730 processor is pin-to-pin compatible with TI’s AM3715 processor. The difference

between AM3715 and DM3730 is DSP, AM3715 has no DSP, while DM3730 has a DSP. We call

DevKit8500D and DevKit8500A for processor using difference on the board.

Optional Function Modules

Additionally, Embest offers various functions modules for Devkit8500D including VGA

(VGA8000), WiFi (WF8000-U), Analog Camera (CAM8000-A), GPS (GPS8000-S), GPRS

(GPRS8000-S), 3G (CDMA8000-U, WCDMA8000-U) and Digital Camera (CAM8100-U,

CAM8000-D) modules which greatly extends the functions of the board and would be flexible for

customer selection to meet their own needs.

Hardware Features

The Texas Instruments’ DM3730 DaVinci™ digital media processor is powered by up to 1-GHz

(also supports 300, 600, and 800-MHz operation) ARM Cortex-A8 and 800-MHz (also supports

250, 520 and 660-MHz operation) C64x+ DSP core, and has integrated 3D graphics processor,

imaging and video accelerator (IVA), USB 2.0, MMC/SD memory card, UART and many more.

DaVinci DM3730 video processor is pin-to-pin compatible with Sitara AM37x devices and

software compatible with the OMAP35x processors. The C64x+ DSP and hardware video

accelerator enable audio and HD 720p video decoding and encoding independent of the ARM

processor. The programmable DSP engine allows multiple signal processing tasks such as image

processing and analysis, digital filtering, and math functions. DaVinci DM3730 video processor is

suitable for 720p HD (High Definition) video applications which require large amount of data

processing.

The DevKit8500D Evaluation board is based on DM3730 processor and takes full features of the

processor. This board is characterized as follows:
