Linux Version Overview

Linux Distributions Version
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Latest
Yocto Linux Scarthgap, Kirkstone

Windows EAPI

The PICMG EAPI makes it easy for developers to access specific hardware interfaces of our TQ modules from their Windows application. The EAPI provides features like GPIO control, I2C, system information and watchdog timer.

EAPI Development >>

x86 Yocto Linux

x86 Yocto is an operating system designed for x86 computers and based on the Yocto project, which allows developers to create custom Linux systems for their devices. We offer a meta-layer for our x86 modules, which provides all necessary customizations for our modules.

x86 Linux MFD Driver

The TQMx86 MFD driver enables the use of interfaces like GPIO, I2C, Watchdogs and many other module functions. This should already be included in the current Linux distributions (mainline).
