Getting Started Guide

When you receive the SSOM-3588 core board and baseboard, we recommend that you first read our getting started guide to help you quickly get into the development phase.

Before you start using the SSOM-3588, you may need to prepare the following accessories:

If you do not need a graphical interface, you may only need the power adapter and Type-C data cable. You can connect the SSOM-3588 to your computer via network cable or Type-C data cable and operate the device through a terminal tool.
