SOMAM1808-10-1602QHIR

Microcontrollers, Microprocessor, FPGA Modules Overview

The Beacon EmbeddedWorks SOMAM1808-10-1602QHIR is a System on Module based on the Texas Instruments AM1808 processor. It features an ARM926EJ-S core operating at 450 MHz, paired with 128 MB of Mobile DDR SDRAM and 8 MB of serial NOR flash. The module includes a programmable color LCD controller supporting up to 16 bpp TFT interfaces, integrated touchscreen control via TPS65070, and a SATA controller for high-speed storage access. Designed in the compact SOM-M1 form factor (30 x 40 x 4.5 mm), it supports industrial temperature ranges from -40°C to 85°C.

Microcontrollers, Microprocessor, FPGA Modules Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix QHIR confirms the 128 MB mobile DDR configuration and industrial temperature range (-40°C to 85°C). Confirm SATA availability as the datasheet notes it is supported on select configurations. Contact Logic PD Sales for custom configuration details if standard specifications do not meet project requirements.

Microcontrollers, Microprocessor, FPGA Modules Selection Notes

Select this module when an ARM9-based solution with integrated SATA connectivity is required for portable or medical applications. Ensure baseboard designs are compatible with the SOM-M1 form factor (30 x 40 x 4.5 mm) and support the necessary power and interface requirements for the AM1808 processor and peripheral components.

Microcontrollers, Microprocessor, FPGA Modules Part Context

This module is part of the AM1808 SOM-M1 product line, designed by Logic PD and distributed by Beacon EmbeddedWorks. It allows developers to reuse existing baseboard designs when upgrading to new Sitara processors, extending roadmap possibilities for end-products while reducing design risk and controlling costs.
