# Openmoko Beagle/Panda Hybrid ([GTA04][]A1) #

[GTA04]: ../gta04-main

News: We have been choosen by the [PandaBoard Early Adopter Program][PEAP] and will receive a PandaBoard (OMAP4 / ARM Cortex A9) board soon.

[PEAP]: http://omappedia.org/wiki/PandaBoard_Voting

The Openmoko Beagle/Panda Hybrid is a PCB to connect an Openmoko Freerunner display (TD028TTEC1) through some connectors with a Beagle or Panda Board. It became the basis for a new Openmoko device and can therefore also be referenced as "GTA04A1".








# Subprojects #
Please go to the specific sub-projects

[1]: ../gta04-uboot
[2]: ../gta04-kernel
[Debian Lenny]: ../gta04-rootfs

# What it is good for #

* experimenting with touchscreen and new user interfaces on Beagleboard
* learn how the OMAP3530/OMAP4430 design works
* make it a mobile application development platform by adding a battery pack and a UMTS usb stick
* investigate how an Openmoko with UMTS and OMAP3530/OMAP4430 feels (not from haptics but screen operation and UMTS speed)
* porting SHR, QtMoko, Angstrom, Android, etc. to ARM-Cortex A8/A9, NEON

# Features #
* PCB that fits into Freerunner case (top cover and middle part after cutting a hole)
* works also outside of a case
* Toppoly LCM interface (same display as used in the Freerunner - otherwise it would not fit into the case)
* TSC2007 touch screen controller
* Microphone
* Earset and Speaker connector (for Freerunner case)
* 2 buttons (AUX and Power)
* 2 dual color LEDs (in the AUX and Power buttons)
* vibracall driver
* headset jack to connect microphone, earset and speaker
