Balluff/MATRIX VISION devices can run on ARM-based Linux platforms without limitations regarding available feature sets or API functions. However, each platform may have its own limits in terms of achievable data throughput, RAM or bus speeds. Apart from that, each platform may also come with its own specific set of challenges. Therefore, certain modifications may need to be adapted in order to get your devices run at maximum performance.
This chapter contains test results from different ARM platforms, as well as the specific information on each platform, especially changes that need to be applied to achieve better performance.
The following platforms have been tested by Balluff:
