Description:
The RPi-Dev board is designed to be a flexible development and prototyping platform for both the Raspberry Pi and PSoC ecosystems. The board has the functionality needed for real time embedded projects. The heart of the board is a Cypress PSoC processor allowing user programmable analog and digital circuitry based on the target project. The board is also usable with standard PC hardware and other SOC class processor boards thorugh a USB 2.0 connection.
The board is fully open source and released under the Creative Commons, Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Unported License. Sample software is also available and released under the GNU GLP V3 license.
Please contact CyberData Corporation if you are interested in for profit application based on this design.
