TinCanTools Website

The Hammer CPU board from TinCanTools,is based upon Samsung’s S3C2410 ARM920T processor. It gives you the power of an ARM9 processor in an easy to use modular package. The Hammer CPU board fits into a standard 40 pin DIP socket. It is an ideal platform for code development and prototyping in an embedded environment. You can quickly interface to the Hammer using your standard prototyping tools that are based upon 0.1 inch centers.

   * 100 MIPS Microprocessor ( CPU ): S3C2410 - Samsung (200 MHz)
   * ARM 920T core with Cache (16K+16K) and MMU
   * Main Memory: 32MB SDRAM (16M x 16 bit, 100MHz)
   * FLASH : 16MB NOR Flash
   * Peripherals available:
         o 2 UART’s (also supports IrDA)
         o 1 I2C
         o 2 SPI’s
         o 2 16-bit Timers/PWM’s
         o 1 8-bit LCD Interface + control signals
         o 1 USB Host Port
         o 1 USB Slave Port
         o 2 ADC’s (10 bit )
         o 4 External Interrupt pins
         o 1 Up to 30 pins of GPIO’s 
   * JTAG Interface: 2 x 7 Header – standard ARM JTAG interface
   * Size: 0.75 inches (width) X 2.25 inches (length)
   * Package: Fits a standard 40-pin DIP socket (0.1 inch lead spacing)
   * Power Requirements: +5VDC @ 120 mA (typical)

Hammer Details

The Hammer comes preloaded with an open source bootloader, Linux 2.6 kernel, and a uClibc/Busybox based root file system. Board schematics, application notes, and source code are also included on the CD. The Hammer Board is a 40 pin DIP modules that can run full standard GNU/Linux.

The Hammer Kit comes with everything you will need to begin developing for the Hammer Board, and is strongly recommended for first time Hammer Board users. All development tools have been created for use with Linux, so you will need a working Linux system to use the Hammer Board and develop applications for it.
