2.2 Software Support / Hardware Abstraction
The Kontron sAT30 Module is supported by Kontron BSPs (Board Support Package). The first sAT30 BSP targets Linux
support and is available under Kontron part number 771-242-00. BSPs for other operating systems are planned. Check
with your Kontron contact for the latest BSPs.
This manual goes into a lot of detail on I/O particulars – information is provided on exactly how the various SMARC
edge fingers tie into the NVIDIA SoC and to other Module hardware. This is provided for reference and context. Most of
the I/O particulars are covered and abstracted in the BSP and it should generally not be necessary for sAT30 users to
deal with I/O at the register level.
