The TI OMAP 35x processors represent the first broad-market offering of the ARM Cortex™-A8 core, and offer very high performance processing at the best performance/power ratio in a single chip. This free workshop was an excellent opportunity to get in-depth training on the TI OMAP processor family and the ARM Cortex™-A8 core. With more than four times the processing capability of today's 300 MHz ARM9 devices, the superscalar Cortex-A8 core runs up to 600 MHz and is integrated into four new OMAP35xTM applications processors for a wide range of possible applications, including portable infotainment and industrial devices, points of sale, digital signage and low-power medical devices. Seminar Content: ARM Cortex-A8 Core (ARM Bryan Lawrence) The presentation material from the seminar sessions are now available for download from the following link to the Silica Website. MPC Data demonstrated the rich operating system support which is available on the OMAP 35x processor family, including Microsoft Windows CE and Embedded Linux on both the OMAP3 EVM and Beagleboard, along with a selection of applications to illustrate the capabilities of these platforms.
