The heart of DIVA SOM is Texas Instruments "Sitara" [http://www.ti.com/lsds/ti/arm/sitara_arm_cortex_a_processor/sitara_arm_cortex_a8/am335x_arm_cortex_a8/products.page?paramCriteria=no AM335x microprocessors]. From a software point of view, Texas Instruments supports this processor family through so-called Linux EZ AM Software Development Kit (EZSDK AMSDK for short). EZSDK AMSDK releases are published on a regular basis. For more details please refer to:
* http://www.ti.com/tool/linuxezsdk-sitara
* http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Category:EZSDK
DIVA Embedded Linux Kit, in turn, is directly derived from EZSDKAMSDK. Hence DIVELK documentation often refers to EZSDK AMSDK resources.
=== Carrier boards ===
Please note that DIVELK u-boot and kernel source trees are derived from the official trees released by TI; these trees have been customized to add support for the DIVA SOM.
For further information on EZSDKAMSDK, please refer to [http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Sitara_SDK_5.06.00_Release_Notes Sitara SDK release notes].
==== DIVELK software components ====
'''DAVE Embedded Systems''' adds to the latest EZSDK AMSDK from Texas Instruments the customization required to support the DIVA platform. For this reason most of the documentation provided by TI remains valid for the DIVELK development kit. However, some customization is required, in particular at bootloader and linux kernel levels.
The following table shows how DIVELK releases are related to EZSDK AMSDK releases.
