Development on Mini2440 ARM9 Board

Hi all,
I have bought mini2440 arm9 development board. Can you guys please guide me
what kind of developments can be done using this board either software or
hardware?

Regards

mustansar,

Let's start with a question . . . why did you buy this board?

Hardware-wise, it is really the peripherals that you will interface to
rather than doing any board modification.  For example, RS-232, RS485,
cameras and things connected to GPIO.

Software-wise, just about anything that a Linux or Windows CE box can do
and limited by your imagination.

If you are new to embedded programming and want to get things working using
Linux, without needing in-depth knowledge I'd suggest this:

If you want to learn the hard way than search for <Linux from scratch> and
<building your own root file systems>.

Good luck!

Hi mustansar,

as concern to software u can develop more than already developed before.
While as concern to hardware, have developed (by prototype) a board of 16
inputs and 16 outputs board with PC key board interfacing. If you check the
details of CON5 pins, there are 16 data lines, 8 address lines, 4
chipselects, read & write strobe, 1 DMA. So u can design 256 * 4 = 1024
input ports of 8 bits and same value of output ports. Hoz that?

if you r interested in hardware than contact me at
