Tibbo Project System overview

Size3 Tibbo Project PCBSize3 Tibbo Project PCB

The LTPP3 is a Linux-based Tibbo Project PCB belonging to the Tibbo Project System (TPS) platform. The board is based on a powerful 1GHz Cortex-A8 Sitara CPU and has five UARTs, as well as two CAN controllers.

Thanks to its seven tiles offering a total of fourteen Tibbit module and fourteen Tibbit connector sockets, the LTPP3 can be used to create TPS configurations with up to five full serial ports, up to 25 relays, or up to 51 control lines, such as opto-inputs, PWMs, or open-collector outputs.

One use scenario for the LTPP3 is to purchase it with a license for Embedded Aggregate, turning it into a compact AggreGate server. This setup would allow for the rapid development and deployment of IoT applications.

In another scenario, you can take advantage of Node.js, which comes preinstalled on the board, opening up the entire world of Node.js programming.

This embedded Linux system can be used as a bare board or assembled into a Size 3 Tibbo Project Box (TPB3).

The LTPP3 is supported by the TPS Online Configurator, through which you can define a custom TPS and order it from our online store.

Create Node.js Applications

The LTPP3 comes with Node.js preinstalled. We have developed a number of Node.js modules for accessing the board’s hardware resources and installed Tibbits. You can also utilize many existing modules, such as serialport and socket.io.

Use the LTPP3 with Embedded AggreGate

The LTPP3 can be ordered with Embedded AggreGate (license purchased separately). Serving as the board’s execution environment, AggreGate lends the LTPP3 its immense power of data collection, processing, and visualization.

AggreGate provides uniform, consistent access to external data, devices, and systems using more than 100 supported communications protocols. Via a specially designed middleware C library, Embedded AggreGate can also access the board’s hardware resources, such as GPIO lines, serial ports, and Tibbits installed in the board’s sockets.
