General
- Official Hackers Manual (v1.01) from OpenPandora Ltd, includes warnings about damage and warranties (or loss of).
Board
The Pandora is based upon OMAP3530 and DM3730 System-on-a-chip, that includes a whole family of processors in one single chip:
- ARM Cortex-A8 CPU
- PowerVR SGX graphics core
- C64x+ DSP core
OMAP3530 (600MHz units)
- OMAP3xxx: Main page on TI site[1]
- OMAP3530 specific page[2] This lists the features of the chip and has all the applicable Technical Documents
DM3730 (1GHz units)
- DM3730 specific page[3]
Other OMAP3530 Projects
- Always Innovating Touch Book[4]
- Beagle Board Resources[5] As it uses the same SoC, many BB resources are also relevant for the Pandora.

Cortex-A8
This processor is part of the ARM risc cpu family[7] that is licensed by a lot of hardware vendors. It has multiple command extensions as NEON (similar to MMX for x86 architecture)
- r1p1[8] Note: OMAP3530 uses rev1p2
