Overview
Microchip's SmartFusion Development Kit 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. You can also use a free evaluation version or full licensed version of either KeilTM or IAR Systems ® compiler. The Quickstart card and the user's guide contain the information related to the options for software, downloads, and licensing.
