Description

The BeagleBone is a low-cost, high-expansion BeagleBoard using the TI AM3358/9 SoC based on an ARM Cortex-A8 processor core using the ARMv7-A architecture. It is similar to the earlier BeagleBoards and can act as a USB or Ethernet connected expansion companion for your current BeagleBoard and BeagleBoard-xM or work stand-alone. The BeagleBone is small even by BeagleBoard standards yet still provides much of the performance and capabilities of the larger BeagleBoards.

BeagleBone ships with a 4GB micro-SD card preloaded with the Angstrom ARM Linux distribution.

Specification

  • 720-MHz superscalar ARM Cortex-A8
  • 256-MB DDR2 RAM
  • 10/100 Ethernet RJ45 socket
  • MicroSD slot and 4GB microSD card
  • Preloaded with Angstrom ARM Linux Distribution
  • Single USB 2.0 type A host port
  • Dual USB hub on USB 2.0 type mini-A device port
  • On-board USB-to-serial/JTAG over one shared USB device port
  • Storage over USB or Ethernet-over-USB on other USB device port
  • +5V DC power from barrel connector or USB device port
  • 3.3-V 2× 46-pin peripheral headers with multiplexed LCD signals
  • Board size: 3.4" × 2.1"
