Blueboard LPC-2148

Blueboard is an open-source initiative at realizing cost effective prototyping and solutions using the versatile LPC 214x series of microcontrollers. Driven at present, by engineering and support from NGX Technologies, the board is provided with necessary interfaces for a quick realization of embedded solutions. NGX Technologies? Blue Board - LPC2148 is a ready-to-run development platform with code snippets to demonstrate applications for every feature supported on the board. The Blue Board offers ubiquitous interfaces making it the best board available for INR 2000. All the technical information related to the project is freely available.


LINARO

A group of semiconductor companies are co-ordinating their approachs to the growing use of Linux-based open-source software in mobile communications devices.

ARM, Freescale Semiconductor, IBM, Samsung, ST-Ericsson and Texas Instruments have set-up a not-for-profit open source software engineering company to be called Linaro.

A focus of the venture will be the support for the development of open-source software applications for "always-on" mobile terminals such as smartphones and netbooks.

All six members of the group develop and supply semiconductor and system-on-chip (SoC) devices for mobile designs.

Leopard Board

The Leopardboard is a full featured, ultra low cost, small form factor, high performance development system which includes TMS320DM355 Processor board and a VGA camera board to provide VGA resolution video capture.

The Leopardboard 365 is enhanced with more HD Video codecs, Face Detection and HD Video output with TMS320DM365.

Hawkboard arrived

One more board, Hawkboard, came in line with Beagleboard and costs lesser than BeagleBoard. The newer board with enhanced features costs 5400 INR and is a good starting point for learning embedded linux.


Hawkboard consists of OMAP L-138 - An ARM 9 and Floating Point DSP C674x Application Processor.
