Four kinds of board, and the engineering around them.

Each card lights its place on the bench, ending at the custom PCB your prototype turns into.

A dev board is where a product starts, not where it ends.

The same team selects the board, brings it up, proves the design on the bench, and then designs the production hardware it becomes.

04

Three ways teams start with a board from GSAS.

Building a product, evaluating Arm IP before silicon, or putting computers on vehicles.

  1. 01

    Product teams

    Prototype now, production next

    Pick the board, bring it up and prove the idea, then move it onto a custom PCB without changing teams. GSAS carries the firmware across to the production board.

    • Board and tool-chain selection
    • Bring-up and firmware
    • Custom PCB when it works
  2. 02

    Silicon and IP teams

    Before tape-out

    Arm MPS platforms let a design centre run Arm processor IP and Corstone subsystems on an FPGA before silicon, with the debug tool chain to match.

    • MPS2+, MPS3 and MPS4
    • Keil MDK and Arm Development Studio
    • ULINK debug probes
  3. 03

    Fleet and EV telematics

    On the vehicle

    AutoPi units read CAN and OBD-II data and report over 4G to a fleet platform; the CM4-based units also run your own code at the edge in Docker. GSAS supplies them in India and helps with the integration.

    • TMU CM4, CAN-FD Pro and Mini
    • Custom Linux images and OTA strategy
    • Cloud and fleet-platform integration
05

Need a board, or the product it becomes?

Tell us the silicon, the interfaces and what the product has to do. GSAS replies with the board, the tool chain and a quote, and the engineering to take it further.

Single-board computers and development boards from GSAS in India

Which development boards and single-board computers can I buy from GSAS in India?

Digilent FPGA development boards (Arty A7, S7 and Z7, Cmod A7, Zybo Z7, Nexys A7, Genesys 2, Eclypse Z7 and more), Arm MPS2+, MPS3 and MPS4 prototyping platforms, AutoPi telematics units (TMU CM4, CAN-FD Pro and Mini), and boards GSAS designs itself, such as the Genesis Cortex-M4 Bridge and the LPC 1768 board.

Can GSAS help us choose the right board?

Yes. Tell us the MCU, MPU or FPGA you are targeting and the peripherals and interfaces the product needs, and GSAS engineers will suggest the board and the tool chain to go with it.

What is an Arm MPS platform used for?

Arm MPS boards are FPGA prototyping platforms for evaluating Arm processor IP and subsystems before silicon. MPS2+ targets Cortex-M, MPS3 covers Cortex-M, Cortex-A and Cortex-R, and MPS4 is built for Arm Corstone subsystems.

What is the AutoPi TMU CM4?

A vehicle telematics unit built on the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4, with dual CAN-FD, OBD-II, 4G LTE and Docker-based edge computing, managed through AutoPi Cloud. GSAS supplies it in India along with the CAN-FD Pro data logger and the AutoPi Mini.

Can GSAS turn our dev-board prototype into a custom PCB?

Yes. Once the prototype works, GSAS designs the production board (schematic and multilayer layout), builds and tests it in Bengaluru, and carries the firmware across. See the hardware design page for the full service.

How do we buy from GSAS?

Request a quote and GSAS invoices in INR. GSAS is registered on GeM and works through SAP Ariba and Coupa for organisations that buy that way, with engineering support from its Indian offices.
