Peripheral Explorer Kit Overview
The Peripheral Explorer Kit is an evaluation board designed to allow for experimentation with many of the
peripherals available in the C2000™ F28x family of microprocessors. The board is designed to accept any
of the DIMM100 plug-in controlCARDs™ and contains all hardware (controlCARD, power supply, etc)
required for normal usage. The kit is self-contained and contains multiple experiments in which external
equipment, such as oscilloscopes, are not required. Commonly in these examples one peripheral read the
output of a different peripheral, confirming the operation of both.
Features of the Peripheral Explorer Kit include:
Multiple peripheral-based examples
EPWM-based sinusoidal output based on a sine table
DAC via filtered ePWM module and then read by an ADC
CAP-based IR receiver reading
SPI-based EEPROM
UART communications header available for host control
ADC-based potentiomers
GPIO-based components such as pushbuttons, hex encoder, and LEDs
McBSP/DMA-based AIC23 codec software (F28335 only)
I2C header for external use and communication with TMP100 temperature sensor
CAN header for external use
Quick Start GUI, a friendly way to control / demo the application, based on open source C# freeware
The Hardware Developer’s Package is available and includes full hardware documentation such as
schematics, bill of materials, Gerber files, etc.
