12/16/2011 10:49:06TriCape0Ross Morrisonross@newsink.comCape breakout board with on board 32bit PIC(TM) microcontroller. The PIC interfaces to the AM3359 via a SPI interface. The PIC is interfaced to a NXP RTCC with battery backup. The LCD lines from the AM3359 are routed to a 2mm pitch 50 pin header which enable connection to LCD personality boards we have built (Newhaven 320x240 and Optrex 800x480). This cape is primarily designed to provide user interface functionality to the Beaglebone.In-development or reviewwww.syntheticlifeforms.net

12/16/2011 11:31:37BeagleBone BreadboardBeagleBoardToyscustomer@beagleboardtoys.comThe BeagleBone Breadboard is designed to provide a simple but productive prototyping space. This prototyping cape is equipped with a patterned prototyping area, two general LED’s, two tactile switches, one 8-pin female header and two stackable 46-pin connectors. LED’s and switches are wired to an 8-pin header for convenient access. There are cutbacks for the Ethernet connector as well as LED’s and reset button on the BeagleBone board. The 46-pin headers are stackable so users won’t have to worry about losing this feature. With each purchase including an adhesive solderless breadboard and jumper wire kit (140 pieces in 14 different lengths), the BeagleBone Breadboard offers users a powerful prototyping tool without the needs of soldering.Productionhttp://boardzoo.com/product_info.php?products_id=85

12/16/2011 11:32:32BeagleBone Breakout CapeBeagleBoardToyscustomer@beagleboardtoys.comThe BeagleBone Breakout provides easy access to the BeagleBone components and test points during troubleshooting processes. BeagleBone’s are great with its stackability. However, when it comes to troubleshooting, access to some test points and components on the top side of BeagleBone and bottom side of the stacking capes are very limited. The BeagleBone Breakout cape solves this problem by separating BeagleBone and its cape. There are two cutouts on the breakout cape, and each cutout is equipped with a set of two 46-pin connectors. One connector set is for the BeagleBone board, whereas the other is for its capes.Productionhttp://boardzoo.com/product_info.php?products_id=87

12/27/2011 20:21:05Universal Motor DriverRene vd Vossenbergr.vandeVossenberg@upcmail.nlThis is a feature request,

How about a Cape for a Stepper/Servo/DC-AC motor
You should be able to add an "unlimited" amount of Capes on a beagle and address them seperatly.
Perhaps through USB using a hub to save IO pins (for eg sensors)
Perhaps connect them together in a serial way using connectors
or any other way

Motor Power should not be drawn from the board but externaly supplied so it supports high end motors. (Relais??).

Usage:
Anything you want "moving"
Industrial Machines
CNC devices
Robotics
Models (train, car etc)

Such a feature would be a selling point for me (and a lot of others)

PS as far as I know there isn`t any Motor Driver for beagle yet.

4x stereo SPDIF header connected to McASP0 in DIT mode

Currently working out the various pin mux settings to see if this is actually possible. I believe mcasp0_axr* on D12,V4,C12,C13 are available for the SPDIF.

The SPDIF out will initially be direct from McASP0 in DIT mode with a line driver on each port. We will measure output jitter and take a view if we need to use a higher quality transmitters like 4x WM8804.

This cape will offload the CPU for cryptographic operations (usefully for a networked device that makes heavy use of VPN/TLS/SSL). It can also be used to enhance the security of an existing project.		Concepthttp://datko.net/cryptocape/

10/28/2013 10:18:21M2M CapePriyank Kumarpriyank@yantrr.comM2M Cape for Beaglebone provides seamless internet connectivity to the Beaglebone via GPRS or 3G network anytime anywhere. It also has an optional GPS add-on for location and time synchronization (1pps signal, 2 microsecond jitter accuracy).

This cape is compatible with many sensor capes available for Beaglebone black. Thus, this cape can convert your beaglebone to a true "internet-of-things" gateway, and one can upload sensor data directly to the cloud using this Plug-n-Play addon.

Also included is fully supported device driver and middleware for Anstrong Linux BBB and Debian Wheezy, plus support for standard software package for internet connectivity, sending / receiving SMS, GPS location, and time synchronization to get you going in a jiffy.
