EKC-LM3S3768

The Stellaris® LM3S3768 Evaluation Board (EVB) is a compact and versatileevaluation platform for the Stellaris LM3S3768 ARM® Cortex™-M3-basedmicrocontroller. The evaluation board design highlights the LM3S3768microcontroller´s key features including a USB 2.0 full-speed (12 Mbps)controller, Analog-to- Digital Converter (ADC), and serial interfaces.

Features

The Stellaris® USB controller provides full OTG negotiation and support forconnection to non-OTG peripherals or host controllers. With a single USB microABconnector, the LM3S3768 EVB supports On-The-Go (OTG) as well as Host and DeviceUSB capabilities. OTG cables, included in the kit, allow a wide range of USBapplications to be evaluated. A small switch selects between bus-powered andself-powered options. Four ADC signals are paired as two differential channelsto implement a 1 MS/s oscilloscope application on the LCD panel. Theoscilloscope feature set includes USB Host and Device connectivity as well asmicroSD card support. The EVB may be used either as an evaluation platform or asa low-cost in-circuit debug interface (ICDI). In Debug Interface mode, theon-board microcontroller is bypassed, allowing programming or debugging of anexternal target. The Stellaris LM3S3768 Evaluation Board includes the followingfeatures:

  • 50-MHz Stellaris LM3S3768 microcontroller with 128 K flash and 64 K SRAM
  • 2-channel oscilloscope quickstart application
  • USB OTG Micro-AB connector
  • Bus-powered or self-powered USB Device support
  • Simple setup – USB cable provides serial communication, debugging, and power
  • Color LCD graphics display with 128 x 128 pixel resolution
  • User LED and navigation switch with press-to-select functionality
  • 8Ω magnetic speaker with amplifier
  • microSD card slot
  • DC jack for optional 5 V power supply
  • Standard ARM® 20-pin JTAG/SWD debug connector with input and output modes
  • LM3S3768 microcontroller I/O available on labeled break-out pads
