The part number DA830 itself is public,
and there have been numerous press releases on this new device in recent weeks.
It's correct that only high-level information on DA830 is posted on TI web, e.g.
http://focus.ti.com/apps/docs/mrktgenpage.tsp?contentId=14700&appId=1
http://focus.ti.com/apps/docs/gencontent.tsp?contentId=52385&appId=1
However, the various C674x user guides describing peripherals and sub-systems
are applicable to DA830 as well.
While the datasheet and system reference guide for DA830 are provided only per
non-disclosure agreement
(there is reference to / information about various 3rd-party IP, among other
reasons),
the OMAP-L137 datasheet & system reference guide are almost 100% applicable to
DA830 as well.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Lester
