Hardware Development procedure

Postby fahimalavi » Wed Oct 23, 2013 3:08 pm

I have tested a product using beagle bone black, I want to order it for
commercial production for a 1000 unit soon. I am fine with the feature
present in it except few are unnecessary like ethernet port, microSD slot
etc. What procedure I now to follow, can any one tell me who are good cheap
custom board developers, how much a unit cost to me as beagle bone is
about 45$ ?

Why not contact CircuitCo or Olimex?

Hi,
What about the BSP, drivers etc will drivers should be changed or I can reuse them linux drivers on that board? I am getting feeling that I have to restart the testing on new board ?

Due to the pinmux behaviors, it should not be that complicated to modify only those that need alteration, if any.
