Linux on TechNexion AMD boards and solutions
TechNexion is a strong advocate of supporting the opensource community and activily participates with the development of boardlevel support and drivers that enable Linux developers to create true embedded systems that stand out in the market.
Where others just point you to a linux download page or let you in the dark. TechNexion actively ports Coreboot to the board. Give you the opportunity to embed the Linux kernel into the large (32 mbit) BIOS chip. And give you the possibility to load a 256 MB sized system on the onboard NAND flash.
Special Linux only features that you find on this board are:

Special Linux only features that you find on this board are:
| 1. | A very large (32 mbit) SPI BIOS chip with coreboot pre-loaded, which can easily contain your Linux kernel to have a true embedded super fast boot environment. |
| 2. | SPI Pinheader for recovering and re-flashingthe SPI chip in case of emergency. |
| 3. | Onboard NAND IC controller with MTD based 256 MB NAND flash that can directly support popular Linux based journaling flash file systems. |
| 4. | Programmable (8) LED's for error reporting. |
| 5. | DIP switches (4) to hardcode display resolutions or boot behaviour. |
What will you find in your package:
| 1. | TIM-5690 embedded motherboard with onboard 1Ghz single core embedded CPU (AMD Sempron U200) 256MB NAND flash, 32mbit SPI BIOS. |
| 2. | AC adaptor to power the board. (12VDC) |
| 3. | Cables for : VGA, USB, SATA (powercable and datacable), powerswitch, RS-232, PS2 keyboard/mouse. |
Your development kit will ship within 2 weeks after you place your order.
