The OMAP-L138 System on Module (SOM) is a compact, product-ready hardware and software solution that fast forwards embedded designs while reducing risk and controlling cost.

Based on Texas Instruments' OMAP-L138 processor and designed in the SOM-M1 form factor, the OMAP-L138 module offers essential features for handheld and embedded networking applications. The OMAP-L138 SOM-M1 features the superset OMAP-L138 processor, but also supports the TMS320C6748 digital signal processor (DSP).

The OMAP-L138 SOM-M1 brings the industry leading low power ARM926 core to a small, off-the-shelf solution. The standard SOM-M1 form factor allows developers to reuse existing baseboard designs when upgrading to new OMAP processors, which extends roadmap possibilities for their end-product.

Two Zoom_^TM Development Kit options allow developers to choose the platform best suited to their application needs. By starting with the corresponding Zoom Development Kit, engineers can write application software on the same hardware that will be used in their final product.

The compact size of the OMAP-L138 SOM-M1 is ideal for medical patient monitoring wearables and other portable instrumentation applications; the built-in Serial ATA (SATA) controller provides fast access to large capacity storage devices. For medical, industrial, audio, and communication products, the OMAP-L138 SOM‑M1 allows for powerful versatility, long-life, and greener products.
