Zoom™ DM3730 Torpedo™ Development Kit

The Zoom™ DM3730 Torpedo™ Development Kit is a low-power, high-performance application development kit for evaluating the functionality of Texas Instruments’ DaVinci™ DM37x and Sitara™ AM37x processors and Beacon EmbeddedWorks’ System on Module (SOM).

The Zoom™ DM3730 Torpedo™ Development Kit is a low-power, high-performance application development kit for evaluating the functionality of Texas Instruments’ DaVinci™ DM37x and Sitara™ AM37x processors and Beacon EmbeddedWorks’ System on Module (SOM). 

Application development is performed on the product-ready SOMs using the software Board Support Packages (BSPs) included with the kit, enabling you to seamlessly transfer application code and hardware into production. The development kit includes two SOMs: the DM3730 Torpedo SOM and the DM3730 Torpedo + Wireless SOM. Both SOMs utilize the superset DM3730 processor, allowing for easy evaluation of either the DM3730 or AM3703 processor.

The ultra-compact DM3730 Torpedo SOM is an ideal off-the-shelf solution for applications in markets where space is a premium. The award-winning DM3730 Torpedo + Wireless SOM integrates the WiLink™ 7.0 wireless solution, providing access to all wireless protocols required in today’s connected world: 802.11a/b/g/n, Bluetooth, and GPS.

To assist with software development, Beacon EmbeddedWorks includes the Wattson™ power measurement and performance monitoring application. Wattson delivers real-time graphical feedback and data-logging capabilities without the need for external oscilloscopes and meters. The application guides you to the lowest power and highest performance software combination for your product. Wattson runs on Windows and Linux PCs, enabling software development for Windows CE- and Linux-based products.
