A2F500-DEV-KIT-2

A2F500-DEV-KIT-2 is a SmartFusion development kit. It offers a full-featured development board so you can try the world's only FPGA with hard ARM ® CortexTM-M3 and programmable analog. The device contains on-chip flash and SRAM memory, as well as additional off-chip memory on the board. The board can communicate via Ethernet and HyperTerminal. The board also contains LEDs, switches, and extensive analog experimentation, including voltage rail monitoring, current POT, temperature diodes and voltage sweeping using active bipolar prescalers (ABPS). Networking interfaces include Ethernet PHY, CAN, UART, and RS485. The kit is supported by Libero SoC Design Software, Microchip's design software for flash-based FPGAs and SoC FPGAs.

• Peripherals include Ethernet, DMAs, I2Cs, UARTs, timers, ADCs, DACs and additional analog resources
• Interfaces: programming connection for program and debug from Microchip's design tools
• RVI header for application programming and debug from either Keil or IAR Systems
• Mixed-signal header for daughter card support, USB-to-UART connection to UART-0 for HyperTerminal ex
• DB9 connector for RS485 UART-1 and two DB9 connectors for CAN ports
• RJ45 connector for 10/100 Ethernet (on-chip MAC and external PHY)
• IGLOO PLUS expansion header for I/O expansion (for routing through the EMC I/Os)
• A2F500 connector provides access to additional digital I/Os available in the A2F500 device
• I2C headers, SPI headers, DirectC header
