LAUNCHXL2-RM46

The LAUNCHXL2-RM46 is a Hercules RM46x LaunchPad Development Kit inexpensive evaluation platform designed to help you get started quickly in evaluating and developing with Hercules microcontroller family. The LaunchPad is based on Hercules RM46L852 MCU, which is a lockstep ARM® Cortex®-R4F based MCU with integrated safety features and peripherals such as two 12-bit ADCs, programmable High-End timers, motor control peripherals (eQEP, eCAP, ePWM), USB, Ethernet, MibSPI and serial communication interfaces. Hercules RM series MCUs are designed specifically for IEC 61508 functional safety industrial and medical applications. The LauchPad features on-board emulation for programming and debugging, push buttons, LEDs and ambient light sensor & two standard 40 pin BoosterPack expansion connectors (only one header is populated) to support a wide range of plug-in BoosterPack modules for added functionality such as displays, wireless sensors & more.

• USB powered and capability for external 5V supply
• On-board USB XDS110 debug
• On-board SCI to PC serial communication
• User-programmable push buttons
• Reset switches
• LEDs and ambient light sensor
• Two 40-pin BoosterPack XL headers (only one populated)
• Footprint for expansion headers (not populated) to bring out all MCU Pins
• External high-speed emulation via 14-pin TI-JTAG header (not populated)
