Cortex-A9 EVB + Compiler choice?

Note: This was originally posted on 1st July 2012 at http://forums.arm.com

Hi to all,

I have been watching the board for a bit before jumping in, but I have a silly newbie quetion. My bacground as far as MCU's goesd is with Pics, I am finding it a little bewildering to find out wher to sart with ARM. The chip I will be using is the Cortex A9, but want to work from the ground up so no preloaded OS.

1) can anyone surgest a development board / prototyping board,
2) surgestions regarding a good C compiler

Many thanks is advance, and once again sorry for the silly question.

Hello,
For ARM Cortex-A9 development boards, you could have a look at:
- Texas Instruments BeagleBone or PandaBoard.
- Freescale i.MX6 (at top right list of Ecosystem partners)
- NVIDIA Tegra2 or board solution from Toradex, ...
- STMicroelectronics SPEAr eMPUs.
- etc...

About tools, you can find both ARM Tools and third parties, either GNU or not...

Cheers,
Alban
