MityARM-1810 / AM1810 PROFIBUS Development Kit 

The MityARM-1810 / AM1810 PROFIBUS Development Kit is available to system designers to get started using the PROFIBUS enabled Sitara AM1810 ARM9 from Texas Instruments. This kit provides all the necessary hardware and software to develop PROFIBUS applications using this certified interface from TI.

The kit is a two board set that takes advantage of the MityARM-1810 system-on-module (SoM) and comes complete with isolated PROFIBUS (or RS-485) and CAN Bus interfaces as well as a convenient array of additional standard interfaces such as USB, SATA, RS-232, DVI, Audio output, and MMC/SD. In addition, the kit allows for system prototyping through the convenient expansion headers available on the back side of the base board.

Software in the kit includes Real-time Linux configured with the PROFIBUS drivers needed to immediately begin developing your PROFIBUS application. The PROFIBUS interface on the MityARM-1810 supports 6Mbps, 3Mbps, 1.5Mbps, 500kbps, 187.5kbps, 93.73kbps, 19.2kbps, and 9.6kbps operation.

System designers designing systems for which this two board set fits an end product need may take advantage of the board set's long term and production volume availability.  Information about this option can be obtained here.
