VIA SOM-7000 Starter Kit Quick Start Guide
1. Overview
This guide introduces and describes how to install the standard and oponal accessories available for the VIA
SOM-7000 starter kit, which provides a base package for tesng and evaluang the VIA SOM-7000 module with
the VIA SOMDB7 carrier board.
Notes:
1. The operang temperature 0oC ~ 60oCis a result of tesng performed in a tesng chamber, and a number of
variables can inuence this result. Please note that the working temperature may vary depending on the actual
situaon and environment. It is highly recommended to execute a solid tesng program and take all variables
into consideraon when building the system. Please ensure that the system is stable under the required
operang temperature in terms of the target applicaon.
2. Please note that the lifespan of the onboard eMMC memory chip may vary depending on the amount of
access. More frequent and larger data access on the eMMC memory will shorten its lifespan. It is highly
recommended to use a replaceable external storage (e.g., MicroSD card) for large data access.
2. Hardware Installaon
This secon introduces and describes how to install the following standard accessories bundled in the VIA
SOM-7000 starter kit:
1. Audio cable

2.3 Power Cable
Follow the steps below to connect the power cable between the VIA SOM-7000 starter kit and a power source:
Step 1
Connect the black connector of the power cable to the DC-in power connector labeled 'J7' on the top layer of
the VIA SOMDB7 carrier board.
Step 2
Connect a 12V power adapter to the opposite DC-in jack end of the power cable.
Note:
A power adapter is not provided in the VIA SOM-7000 starter kit. A 12V 3A power adapter is bundled in the
developer pack described in Appendix secon B.1.
