hi all, i don't know if anyone here has been following the rhombus tech project but it basically involves a simple upgradeable cpu card standard where any card is compatible with any base unit it's plugged into. several revisions of the first standard (eoma68) later and the ingenic jz4775 qualifies as an SoC that's suitable.
i've been working with ingenic to get a first prototype eoma68-jz4775 cpu card ready, and i am planning to send the gerbers off to a company to get some samples made up, in the first week of next month (september). basically i wanted to let people know that the project is going ahead, because there may be projects that people are doing where a self-contained ready-made 5mm x 85mm x 54mm cpu card with an ingenic JZ4775, 2gb of RAM, a GbE PHY, standard interfaces such as SD/MMC, SPI, UART, 2 USBs, I2C, 18-pin RGB/TTL and some GPIO including PWM and two dedicated EINT lines would be useful to have as a way to greatly simplify project development. so if anyone would like to take a risk to get some early first revision samples (with no guarantees or even any software installed), or if you would like to wait till later for a 2nd revision, please do say so. l. _______________________________________________ Qi Hardware Discussion List Mail to list (members only): [email protected] Subscribe or Unsubscribe: http://lists.en.qi-hardware.com/mailman/listinfo/discussion
