Chapter 1 Product Overview
1.1 Introduction
BeagleBone-HDMI Cape (hereafter refers to BeagleBone-HDMI) is an extension board
designed by Embest Technology for extending the functions of the BeagleBone
development board that was built on TI’s Sitara AM335x microprocessors.
BeagleBone-HDMI is capable of providing HDMI output including both audio and video
signals with a video resolution of up to 720p. Additionally, it has a 50-pin LCD interface
for the connection of a 4.3- or 7-inch LCD display. The LCD and the HDMI interfaces are
working under multiplexing mode, which means only one of the interfaces could function
at a time.
