Overview
The SAMA7G54-EK evaluation kit is intended for evaluating and prototyping with the SAMA7G54 microprocessor (MPU). The SAMA7G54 is a Arm Cortex-A7 based MPU running up to 1GHz supporting up to 2GBytes of 16-bit DDR2, DDR3, DDR3L, LPDDR2, LPDDR3, with octal/quad SPI, NAND and e.MMC Flash support. The SAMA7G54 integrates a complete imaging and audio subsystems with 12-bit parallel and MIPI-CSI2 camera interfaces up to 8 Mp and 720p @ 60 fps, up to four I2S, one SPDIF transmitter and receiver and a 4-stereo channel audio sample rate converter. The device also features a large number of connectivity options including Dual Ethernet (one Gigabit ethernet and one 10/100 Ethernet), six CAN-FD and three high-speed USB and offers advanced security functions such as: secure boot, secure key storage, high-performance crypto accelerators for AES, SHA, RSA and ECC.
The SAMA7G54-EK board itself features connectors and expansion headers for easy customization and quick access to leading edge embedded features such as MIKROE Click boards™ and Raspberry Pi expansion header plus MIPI CSI camera. The kit is supported by mainline Linux distribution as well as bare metal software frameworks and RTOS allowing you to easily get started with your development. The kit includes an on-board Embedded Debugger, eliminating the need for external tools to program or debug.
