This processor-based reference design facilitates a quicker time to market and helps customers design cost-effective， human machine interface （HMI） solutions for electric vehicle （EV） charging infrastructure or EV supply equipment （EVSE）。 This reference design showcases a two-dimensional （2-D） Qt graphical user interface （GUI）， which is typical for EVSE HMI， along with TI processor capabilities for software-rendered graphics. The AM335x processors provide scalability with various processing speeds， compatible software to satisfy low-to high-end applications， and ample connectivity with the key peripherals required for EVSE HMI， such as universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter （UART） and CAN.

With increasing battery capacity and decreasing battery cost， electric vehicles are becoming moremainstream each day. The EVSE is an infrastructure element that supplies electric energy for therecharging of electric vehicles， such as plug-in electric vehicles， including electric cars， neighborhoodelectric vehicles， and plug-in hybrids.

The EVSE system consists of a power stage， some sort of central processing unit （CPU） such as amicrocontroller （MCU） or microprocessor （MPU）， communication subsystems for both internal dataexchange and external communications， and an HMI.

The Sitara? AM335x processor， which is one of the most popular processors for industrial HMIapplications， not only has the resources targeted for processing the user interface of a charging station，but the AM335x processor’s easy-to-use programming tools and portfolio of on-chip capabilities givedesigners a head start on EVSE development projects.

Based on the AM335x Starter Kit Evaluation Module （EVM）， the TIDEP-0087 reference design is a quickstarting point for customers who want to design an EVSE HMI module or system for an EV charginginfrastructure.

The TI AM335x high-performance processors are based on the ARM? Cortex?-A8 core.These enhanced processors have rich peripherals and an advanced display capability， including 2-D and3-D acceleration to help customers design cost-effective EVSE HMIs. The devices support high-leveloperating systems （HLOS） such as Linux， which is available free of charge from TI.
