K2L-EVM Custom Hardware Design
The K2L Evaluation Module (EVM) with double wide AMC form-factor enables developers to immediately start evaluating TCI6630K2L processor and begin building application around it especially those demanding high-performance computation like telecom infrastructures, wireless standards including WCDMA/HSPA/HSPA+, TD-SCDMA, GSM, TDD-LTE,FDD-LTE, and WiMAX. The EVMs include an on-board, single 66xx Keystone-II SOC with robust connectivity options that allow customers to use this double AMC form factor card in various systems. EVMs can also work as a standalone. The software accompanying the K2L EVM include the Code Composer StudioTM Integrated Development Environment version 5 (CCS v5), and the Multicore Software Development Kit (MCSDK) that includes the Board Support Package (BSP), Chip Support Library (CSL), Power On Self-Test (POST), Network Development Kit (NDK), SYSBIOS, and Out of Box (OOB) Demonstration software.
The TCI6630K2L platform, based on TI’s industry leading KeyStone II architecture, combines up to two ARM® CortexTM-A15 MPCoreTM processors with four cores of TI’s TMS320C66x high performance DSP. The TCI6630K2L platform provides 2 ARM cores each running up to 1.4 GHz and 1.2 GHz of DSP processing coupled with security and packet processing and Ethernet switching, all at lower power than multichip solutions making it optimal for embedded systems.
