Texas Instruments Dual EVM BoC Card
- Quick Start Guide
High Density Multiprocessor DSP’s
Abstract
This document is provided as a quick start guide for using the Texas Instruments BoC
(Break out Card). The breakout card is intended to provide communication support between
Texas Instruments EVM’s which contain an AMC B+ interface. The EVM BoC is intended
to support EVM to EVM communication for SRIO, PCIe, SGMII, and AIF.
