The phyCORE-OMAP5430 SOM supports the Texas Instruments OMAP5430 processor designed for high performance application support while maintaining low power consumption. The multi-core ARM® Cortex™ processors and multi-core PowerVR™ SGX544-MPx graphics accelerators aid the phyCORE-OMAP5430 in achieving fast, high-quality image and video capture. The 240-pin SOM interconnect supports interfaces such as USB 3.0 and 2.0, HDMI, simultaneous cameras and displays, and pin compatibility for a seamless upgrade path from the phyCORE-OMAP4.
