The RuggedBoard for phyCORE-A5D2x is a SIP (System in Peripheral) which is alow-cost, feature-rich software development platform supporting the Microchip’s A5D2x microprocessor. Moreover, due to the numerous standard interfaces the RuggedBoard A5D2x can serve as bedrock for your application. At the core of the RuggedBoard is the phyCORE-A5D2x System On Module (SOM) in a direct solder form factor, containing the processor,Flash, power regulation, supervision, transceivers, and other core functions required to supportthe A5D2x processor. Surrounding the SOM is the RuggedBoard carrier board, adding power input, buttons, connectors, signal breakout, Ethernet and mikro-BUS connectivity amongst other things.

This RuggedBoardoffers an ultra-low cost Single Board Computer for the A5D2x processor,while maintaining most of the advantages of the SOM concept. Adding the phyCORE-A5D2x SOM into your own design is as simple as ordering the connector version and making use of our RuggedBoard Carrier Board reference schematics.
