Laptop-like performance at handheld power levels in a single chip

The OMAP™ 3 platform is based on the market's first broad offering of the ARM® Cortex™-A8 core. With more than four times the processing power of today's 300MHz ARM9 devices, OMAP35x devices integrate the superscalar Cortex-A8 core and TI's C64x+ DSP into four applications processors: OMAP3503, OMAP3515, OMAP3525, and OMAP3530. The OMAP3530 is now available in two versions: 600MHz ARM/430MHz DSP and 720MHz ARM/520MHz DSP to deliver advanced user interface, improved graphics, video and connectivity for applications.

Tools to help you get started:

• OMAP35x Evaluation Module (EVM): A modular and extensible design, which now includes the performance optimized OMAP3530 at 720MHz, WL1271 Daughter Card with Wireless LAN and Bluetooth, USB host support, video input, 256 MB LPDDR/256 MB NAND Flash memory and the OMAP35x Linux Digital Video Software Development Kit (DVSDK).
• DVSDK for Linux development: Complete with bleeding edge Linux drivers, application framework and codec libraries, the DVSDK allows rapid development of multimedia applications. The DVSDK is free and does not require any run-time royalties.
• Windows® Embedded CE 6.0 board support package: Offering the latest version of Windows Embedded 6.0 R3, which allows quick OS evaluation, while using familiar development tools and leveraging the high-performance graphics and advanced multimedia support. delele the last sentence: The Windows Embedded R2 BSP is available now for free download in source and will be an easy upgrade to R3.
