Kit Overview

Texas Instrument’s Stellaris LM3S9B92 Ethernet+USB-OTG Evaluation Kit provides a low-cost evaluation platform for the LM3S9B92 ARM Cortex-M3-based microcontroller. The kit includes two boards: the EK-LM3S9B92 evaluation board and an In-Circuit Debug Interface (ICDI) board. The evaluation board features a simple, streamlined design for 32-bit Stellaris-based application with industrial connectivity, highlighting the Stellaris LM3S9B92 microcontroller's simultaneous integrated 10/100 Ethernet MAC/PHY, full-speed USB-OTG interfaces, and convenient connection to the MCU's GPIO ports.

The EK-LM3S9B92 board includes the LM3S9B92 ARM Cortex-M3 Microcontroller, a 10/100 Mbit Ethernet port, a full-speed USB-OTG port, connectors for inteface to the BD-ICDI board, and oversized pads for easy connection to the microcontroller GPIO ports. The BD-ICDI board is a USB full-speed JTAG/SWD debugger board. It includes a USB miniB connector for connection to a USB PC port, and two shrouded header connectors for connection to the EK-LM3S9B92 board.

Development of software for the EK-LM3S9B92 is simplified by using Texas Instruments’ comprehensive StellarisWare peripheral driver library and ARM development tools from our tools partners. The Stellaris LM3S9B92 Evaluation Board Kit includes the two boards described, a documentation CD, and cables. All design files are provided on the EK-LM3S9B92 CD. Several versions of the Kit are available:
