Kit Overview

The Keil MCBTWRK60 Tower System allows you to generate and test application programs for the Freescale Kinetis Kxx device family. With this hands-on process, you can determine the hardware and software requirements for current and future product development. This TWR-K60N512TWR-K60N512 board is populated with the Freescale Kinetis MK60N512VMD100 microcontroller. The Freescale Semiconductor MK60N512VMD100 is a Core features - 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4 core (up to 180MHz CPU Clock).

Realize your design quickly with the Keil Starter Kit for the Freescale Kinetis K60 family of microcontrollers. This edition of the popular Tower System development kits for Kinetis comes complete with the Keil MDK™ tools for Freescale Kinetis Microcontrollers based on the ARM® Cortex-M4 core. This kit speeds your time to market with packaged evaluation boards, software development tools, a debug interface cable, example projects and Freescale MQX RTOS sample applications.

The TWR-K60N512-KEILTWR-K60N512-KEIL can operate as a standalone evaluation board, and the ULINK-ME debug adapter allows you to program and debug embedded programs on the TWR-K60N512TWR-K60N512 through Serial Wire Debug (SWD) or a JTAG connection. The MCBTWRK60 is designed to be a very flexible evaluation board for the Freescale Kinetis family of microprocessors. The MCBTWRK60 evaluation board can be expanded to build hardware prototypes. The Freescale Kinetis K60 microcontroller (U1) provided with the MCBTWRK60 board is a high-end MK60N512VMD100 device with advanced capabilities.

The K60 MCU family includes IEEE 1588 Ethernet, full- and high-speed USB 2.0 On-The-Go with device charger detect capability, hardware encryption and tamper detection capabilities. Devices start from 256 KB of flash in 100LQFP packages extending up to 1 MB in a 256MAPBGA package with a rich suite of analog, communication, timing and control peripherals. High memory density K60 family devices include an optional single precision floating point unit, NAND flash controller and DRAM controller.
