BeagleBone Green
SeeedStudio BeagleBone Green (BBG) is a low cost, open-source, community supported
development platform for developers and hobbyists. It is a joint effort by BeagleBoard.org and
Seeed Studio. It is based on the classical open-source hardware design of BeagleBone Black
and developed into this differentiated version. The BBG includes two Grove connectors, making
it easier to connect to the large family of Grove sensors. The on-board HDMI is removed to
make room for these Grove connectors.
Boot Linux in under 10 seconds and get started on development in less than 5 minutes with just
a single USB cable.

  • Page 5 PWMs and Timers Note Up to 8 digital I/O pins can be configured with pulse-width modulators (PWM) to produce signals to control motors or create pseudo analog voltage levels, without taking up any extra CPU cycles.
  • Page 6 Analog Inputs Note Make sure you don't input more than 1.8V to the analog input pins. This is a single 12-bit analog-to-digital converter with 8 channels, 7 of which are made available on the headers.
  • Page 7 UART Note There is a dedicated header for getting to the UART0 pins and connecting a debug cable. Five additional serial ports are brought to the expansion headers, but one of them only has a single direction brought to the headers.
  • Page 8 Note The first I2C bus is utilized for reading EEPROMS on cape add-on boards and can't be used for other digital I/O operations without interfering with that function, but you can still use it to add other I2C devices at available addresses. The second I2C bus is available for you to configure and use.
  • Page 9 Note For shifting out data fast, you might consider using one of the SPI ports.
  • Page 10 Getting Started Note This chapter is writing under Win10. The steps are familiar for the other operate systems. STEP1. Plug in your BBG via USB Use the provided micro USB cable to plug your BBG into your computer. This will both power the board and provide a development interface.
