=== DIVA SOM ===

The heart of DIVA SOM is Texas Instruments "Sitara" [http://www.ti.com/lsds/ti/processors/sitara/arm_cortex-a8/am335x/overview.page]. From a software point of view, Texas Instruments supports this processor family through so-called Linux AM Software Development Kit (AMSDK for short). AMSDK releases are published on a regular basis. For more details please refer to:
* http://www.ti.com/tool/PROCESSOR-SDK-AM335X
* http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Processor_SDK_Linux_Release_Notes
DIVA Embedded Linux Kit, in turn, is directly derived from <code>Processor SDK</code>. Hence DIVELK documentation often refers to this resource.
=== Carrier boards ===
