Introduction
This page serves as a repository of Complimentary Devices that can be paired with the OMAP-L137 SoC devices when integrating the device into a system. The Complementary Products listed here serve a wide range of functions such as:
- Providing basic support functions for the SoC (power, clocking, etc.)
- Expanding the interface options beyond the on-chip peripherals
- Creating the link between the digital domains on the SoC to the system's analog/physical domains
The Complementary Products are organized into functional categories, with the goal of showing several options and their respective Benefits.
Audio Input/Output
OMAP-L137 devices include a sixteen-serializer Multi-channel Audio Serial Port (McASP) for interfacing to audio Codecs, ADCs, DACs, Digital Power Amplifiers, and more. Below is a sampling of audio Codecs that would be a good match for OMAP-L137 devices. Also view the Audio Guide for a comprehensive selection of complementary audio products.

RS-232
The OMAP-L137 UART peripheral can be used to implement a RS-232 interface when paired with the appropriate line driver/receiver. All three UARTs on OMAP-L137devices support transmit/receive. Additionally, UART0 supports modem control functions (CTS, RTS). Below is a sampling of RS-232 products with varying numbers of drivers/receivers to support the desired RS-232 capabilities.

Clocking
OMAP-L137 devices require a 12 to 30MHz main clock. While a crystal can be paired with the internal oscillator to provide this clock, an external clock generator/synthesizer can sometimes be more cost effective. Clock generators/synthesizers can use a single crystal to produce many clock output frequencies using their internal PLLs. Not only can they source both the main clock for OMAP-L137 devices, they can also provide the clock for other devices in the system such as the audio and video encoders/decoders.
Below is a sampling of clock generators/synthesizers that would complement OMAP-L137 devices. Also view the Clocks and Timing Selection Guide for a comprehensive guide to clocking solutions from TI.

Power
OMAP-L137 devices require regulated Core (1.2V) and I/O (1.8V & 3.3V) voltages, sequenced in a low-to-high order. When selecting voltage regulators to pair with OMAP-L137 devices, TI provides an OMAP-L137 Power Consumption Summary (TBD) to help size the regulators for the worst case power of the system.
In addition, TI provides a OMAP-L1x7 Power Management Website that gives detailed power specs, power reference designs covering multiple design care-abouts, and other useful links. These power reference designs are built and tested based on the worst case power specs given in the power spec table.
Below is a sampling of the power management products that complement OMAP-L1x7 devices.
