During this session you will learn how to apply the low power pillars forming the Kinetis L series microcontrollers to make your product more energy efficient.

 

First, we will go through a brief Kinetis L Series portfolio overview highlighting some technical features to guide you in product selection and show you how the L series scales into the other Kinetis products.

 

Second, we will cover what’s new in the Cortex M0+ processor integrated in the L series and how it puts simple 8/16-bit applications in close reach.

 

Next, we will review the many flexible, low power modes in the L series and how they can apply to various use cases.

 

Then, we will study the enhancements in L series energy-saving architecture and peripherals to help your product do more with less energy consumption.

 

Finally, we will review the enablement solutions that will simplify your energy efficient L series design. In particular we will take a closer look at the ultra, low-cost Freedom evaluation platform.
