Overview

LP-AM261 is a cost-optimized development board for Sitara™ high-performance microcontrollers (MCUs) from the AM261x series. This board is ideal for initial evaluation and prototyping as it provides a standardized and easy-to-use platform to develop your next application.

LP-AM261 is equipped with a Sitara AM2612 MCU, along with additional components, allowing the user to make use of various device interfaces, including industrial Ethernet (IE), standard Ethernet, fast serial interface (FSI) and others to easily create prototypes. AM261 supports a variety of IE protocols, such as EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP and PROFINET®.

This extended LaunchPad™ XL development kit offers additional I/O pins for development and supports connection of up to two BoosterPack™ plug-in modules. LP-AM261 also features an intuitive out-of-box user's guide to quickly start design evaluation.

Features
  • AM261x Dual-core Arm® Cortex®-R5F MCU
  • More peripherals supported with AM261x I/O multiplexer (MUX) and onboard MUX options
  • Multiple industrial and automotive networking protocols supported through programmable real-time unit (PRU), modular controller area network (MCAN), local interconnect network (LIN), RGMII, RMII and MII interfaces
  • Onboard XDS110 JTAG debugger
  • Onboard 64Mb ISSI OSPI flash and 64Mb Macronix OSPI flash
