PRUCAPE

PRUCAPE Programmable Real-Time Unit (PRU)

Texas Instruments PRUCAPE Programmable Real-Time Unit (PRU) is a BeagleBone Black add-on board that allows users to know TI's PRU core and basic functionality. The PRU is a low-latency microcontroller subsystem integrated into the Sitara AM335x and AM437x devices. The PRU core is optimized for deterministic, real-time processing, direct access to I/Os, and ultra-low-latency requirements. It includes LEDs and pushbuttons for GPIO, audio, and a temperature sensor. The BeagleBone Black and PRUCAPE are ideal evaluation module solutions to begin PRU development on the Sitara platform.
