(Huntsville, Alabama — September 02, 2009)
Future Designs, Inc., a member of the ARM Connected Community, today announced its new ARM 926EJ-S based DK-57TS-LPC3250, a modular touchscreen platform for HMI / GUI applications. This new design supports ARM microprocessor and microcontroller devices in three popular families – the ARM926EJ, ARM7TDMI-S and Cortex-M3.
Kent Lowman, President of FDI, says “We are excited to introduce this new off-the-shelf ARM Touchscreen platform that allows customers to easily implement complex HMI / GUI applications quickly and cost effectively.”
The new ARM9 based platform was introduced last week to complement the initial product, the DK-57TS-LPC2478. The DK-57TS-LPC3250 includes a Toshiba 5.7” TFT LCD with integrated touchscreen and is based on the NXP LPC3250 266 MHz ARM926EJ-S microcontroller with integrated LCD driver. The “brain” of the system is a SOC module called the ARM9DIMM-LPC3250. This modular 200pin SODIMM is 2.66” x 1.89” and contains the LPC3250 microcontroller, along with 256MB of external NAND FLASH, 32MB of SDRAM and support circuits. The kit includes the Linux Operating System with a full complement of software driver support.
“ARM welcomes Future Designs’ release of the DK-57TS-LPC3250, said Lori Kate Smith, partnership marketing manager for ARM. “As a member of the Connected Community, Future Designs increases the growing products and services that are centered around the ARM architecture and currently available to developers worldwide.”
