Design Kits and Evaluation Modules
AM335x EVM (TMDXEVM3358) The AM335x EVM enables developers to immediately evaluate the
AM335x processor family (AM3351, AM3352, AM3354, AM3356, and AM3358) and begin
building applications, such as portable navigation, portable gaming, and home and building
automation.
AM437x Evaluation Module (TMDSEVM437X) The AM437x EVM enables developers to immediately
evaluate the AM437x processor family (AM4376, AM4377, AM4378, and AM4379 ) and
begin building applications, such as portable navigation, patient monitoring, home and
building automation, barcode scanners, and portable data terminals.
BeagleBone Black Development Board (BEAGLEBK) BeagleBone Black is a low-cost, open source,
community-supported development platform for ARM Cortex-A8 processor developers and
hobbyists. Boot Linux in under 10 seconds and get started on Sitara™ AM335x ARM Cortex-
A8 processor development in less than 5 minutes using just a single USB cable.
WiLink 8 Module 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi + Bluetooth COM8 EVM (WL1835MODCOM8B) The
WL1835MODCOM8 Kit for Sitara EVMs easily enables customers to add Wi-Fi and
Bluetooth technology (WL183x module only) to embedded applications based on TI's Sitara
microprocessors. TI’s WiLink 8 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth modules are precertified and offer high
throughput and extended range along with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth coexistence (WL183x
modules only) in a power-optimized design. Drivers for the Linux and Android high-level
operating systems (HLOSs) are available free of charge from TI for the Sitara AM335x
microprocessor (Linux and Android version restrictions apply).
Note: The WL1835MODCOM8 EVM is one of the two evaluation boards for the TI WiLink 8
combo module family. For designs requiring performance in the 5-GHz band and extended
temperature range, see the WL1837MODCOM8I EVM.
WL18XXCOM82SDMMC Adapter Board The WiLink SDIO board is an SDMMC adapter board and an
easy-to-use connector between the WiLink COM8 EVM (WL1837MODCOM8i and
WL1835MODCOM8B) and a generic SD/MMC card slot on a host processor EVM. The
adapter card enables the WiLink Wi-Fi module to operate over SDIO and provides a UART
connection for Bluetooth technology over an FPC connector or wire cables. In addition, the
adapter is a standalone evaluation platform using TI wireless PC debug tools for any WiLink
module or chip solution with a PCB 100-pin edge connector. This board is designed for use
with various platforms such as the TI Sitara AM335 and AM437.
