DM3730 Processor Hardware Debugging on Linux Platform

DM3730 processor is fabricated on single chip Texas Instrument's advanced 45-nm technology with improved performance. ARM architecture provides best Graphics with less power consumption. DM3730 1GHz processor comes in 0.4mm pitch POP (Package on Package) with memory mounted on top of the processor. Debugging at the hardware/software level is necessary for developing an efficient system. Image Processing application requires, Camera, Speakers, GSM module, keyboard, mouse, internet connection for installing required software's, hence hardware debugging is must to test and know the working of these peripherals properly. The hardware/software debugging is the need of the today's industry for proper deliver of the system. In this paper, DM3730 Processor is tested for different peripherals on Linux Platform. This paper is a part of research work on the project “Development of Non-Intrusive Driver Fatigue Detection & Warning System to avoid on road Accidents” sanctioned under Early Career Research Award sponsored by Science & Engineering Research Board, Govt. of India, New Delhi at Vignan Institute of Technology & Science, Vignan Hills, Hyderabad.
