1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Smartbook Development System is an example of a development platform built around the Tegra™ 200 Series Developer
Board. This example provides a starting point for continued development; it outlines a fairly typical Smartbook configuration
based on the NVIDIA® Tegra™ 250 Computer-on-a-Chip.
This document:
Provides recommendations and integration guidelines for engineers to follow when designing a Smartbook or similar
product that is optimized for high performance and low power consumption.
®
Details a generic Smartbook Development System: development system consists of the NVIDIA
Developer Kit plus a satellite board containing most of the user input devices and some features for test and
development; can be used for evaluation and/or software development.
