Your Subject talks "after purchase" but your Body suggests before.
Either way, solution is pretty much the same. As the design files are available, fab your own from the ground up. And by that I mean own the fab plant n stuff, buy an ARM license, get an engineering degree, implement the chip, build a pick and place box, etc etc How else can anyone "verify" any hardware that is shipped? No, such a suggestion for anything involving complicated ICs is arrant nonsense. P.

Is it possible to know with 100% certainty that a purchased BeagleBoard is free of hardware backdoors / tampering? -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
