Product Overview
The AMCC 440EPx evaluation kit provides users
with a comprehensive set of resources to
evaluate the 440EPx processor as well as to start
system development.
The Sequoia evaluation board, incorporating
the industry-standard Linux operating system
and U-Boot firmware, is an optimized, low-cost
platform designed specifically for evaluation
purposes.
Schematics and layout files for the board are
provided so that customers can start their
designs from a proven baseline. Likewise, the
Linux code and U-Boot firmware source are
available to accelerate customers' software
development.
The kit includes advanced software
development tools from multiple suppliers, to
assist customers in selecting the most
appropriate development and run-time
environments.
Advanced diagnostics, which can be licensed
by customers, perform in-depth testing of the
processor and evaluation board. industry-
standard benchmarks are supplied to support
customers' performance analysis of the
processor, while sample applications provide a
starting point for software development, and
utilities assist in system configuration.
Sequoia Board
The Sequoia board, with
an approximately 5" x 7"
form factor, is a custom-
designed platform
developed by
Embedded Planet for
evaluating the 440EPx
processor:
• 667MHz AMCC
• 256 MByte DDR2
• 16 MByte NAND Flash
