BeagleServer expansion board is an Open Hardware project. Currently a high level design note is available, which describes the components to be used. It aims at the following specifications :
- Aims at transforming a Beagleboard or IGEPv2 into a full-blown home server that could cater to home automation needs
- Compatible with both the Beagleboard and the IGEPv2
- 12V battery powered, or mains-powered (accepts 9 ~ 18V)
- Enough power for an internal 2.5" or 3.5" hard-disk, USB-attached
- +3.3V and +5V I2C; +5V I2C is buffered with a line buffer accepting a larger capacitance which allows I2C devices at distances up to 50m
- I2C to 1-wire hub (using DS2482-800 which is supported by OWFS); plugging in 1-wire devices lights a LED which makes it easy to confirm if a 1-wire device is detected.
- Real time clock with super-capacitor backup
- Internal monitoring of the HW health (power supplies + temperature)
- Some relays
- Ethernet-based console port
- a few other options (RS232 interface with CTS and RTS, SPI port, S-video, additional SD-card)
Robotics
- Beaglebot uses a custom board which provides power, level shifters, and PWM control of 5 hobby servos.
- This robot has a simple expansion board which includes power regulation and PWM motor drivers.
Cameras and Imaging
- The Leopard Board functions as a webcam
LCD Expansion Boards
Rev C2 and later boards provide direct access to the LCD lines before they enter the DVI framer via the LCD header, enabling expansion boards which interface directly with LCD panels.
