Kit Features
The main evaluation board (EVB) is the CAN host. A small CAN device board, linked with a ribbon cable, uses a Stellaris LM3S2110-IQC25 microcontroller. The function of each board is fully configurable in software.
You can use the EVB either as an evaluation platform or as a low-cost in-circuit debug interface (ICDI). In debug interface mode, the on-board microcontroller is disabled, allowing connection of the debug signals to an external target. The kit is also compatible with high-performance external JTAG debuggers.
This evaluation kit enables quick evaluation, prototype development, and creation of application-specific designs for Ethernet networks. The kit also includes extensive source-code examples, allowing you to start building C code applications quickly. The evaluation kit includes the following features:
- Stellaris LM3S8962 microcontroller with fully-integrated 10/100 embedded Ethernet controller and CAN MAC
- Simple setup: USB cable provides serial communication, debugging, and power
- OLED graphics display
- User LED, navigation switches, and select pushbuttons
- Magnetic speaker
- MicroSD card slot
- USB interface for debugging and power supply
- Standard ARM
20-pin JTAG debug connector with input and output modes - LM3S8962 I/O available on labeled break-out pads
