Renesas

The Bluetooth Low Energy Development Kit Pro for the DA14533 SmartBond TINY automotive system-on-chip (SoC) from Renesas includes a motherboard, daughterboard, and cables. It is the ideal platform for evaluating the performance of the small, low-power DA14533 in applications such as tire pressure monitoring and passive keyless entry. 

The kit provides users with the following capabilities:

  • Software development
  • Programming the DA14533 via JTAG or UART using the DA1453x software development kit supplied by Renesas
  • RF characterization
  • Hardware prototyping
  • Power measurement
  • 2 x auxiliary voltage/current measurement
  • Monitoring eight digital inputs 
  • Connecting MikroBUS™ modules

The AF0130CSSM30SMKAH3-GEVK evaluation board from onsemi combines an indirect time-of-flight (iToF) sensor board, featuring the AF0130 1.2 Mpixel global-shutter sensor, with a laser driver board for programming the modulation settings of the sensor’s VCSEL emitters.

The sensor board can be interfaced to a Demo3 evaluation board. The combined kit uses the popular DevSuite software from onsemi to configure the system. The software provides a comprehensive set-up interface, and offers flexible ways to evaluate the sensor’s features and capabilities.

STMicroelectronics

The STEVAL-A6983CV1 and STEVAL-A6983NV1 from STMicroelectronics are evaluation boards for testing the performance of the A6983C and A6983N series automotive-grade synchronous monolithic step-down regulators. The A6983C regulators are optimized for low power consumption in light-load mode, and the A6983N are optimized for low-noise operation.  

The STEVAL-A6983CV1 and STEVAL-A6983NV1 feature a Power good open collector which monitors the feedback voltage. Pulse-by-pulse current sensing on both power elements provides for effective constant-current protection. Thermal shutdown prevents thermal run-away.

STMicroelectronics

The NUCLEO-N657X0-Q evaluation board from STMicroelectronics provides a convenient platform for proof-of-concept and prototype development using the STM32N6 series of microcontrollers, the first STM32 to include the Neural-ART Accelerator, a neural processing unit (NPU). With the on-board NPU, the STM32N6 provides 600 times more machine-learning performance than a high-end STM32 MCU today.  

The STM32 Nucleo-144 board includes an ST Zio connector, which extends ARDUINO Uno V3 connectivity. ST morpho headers provide an easy means of expanding the functionality of the Nucleo open development platform with a wide choice of specialized shields.

The NUCLEO-N657X0-Q does not require a discrete probe as it integrates an ST-LINK debugger/programmer. The board is backed by free STM32 software libraries and examples available with the STM32Cube MCU package.

The NCD57252 evaluation driver board enables evaluation of the NCD57252, a high-current gate driver which can directly drive two independent IGBTs in any configuration. The driver provides 5 kVrmss of internal galvanic isolation from input to each output and functional isolation between the two output channels. 

Microchip

The PIC32CX-BZ3 and WBZ35x Curiosity board from Microchip is an all-in-one platform for testing the microcontroller and wireless functions of the WBZ35x multi-protocol MCU modules and the PIC32CX-BZ3 SoCs.

The PIC32CX-BZ3 and WBZ35x Curiosity board comes preconfigured with an out-of-the-box sensor application where data are sent over Bluetooth® LE. Additional Bluetooth and Zigbee 3.0 application examples are available in MPLAB Harmony v3.

In addition to the WBZ351 Arm® Cortex®-M4F MCU module with PCB antenna, the PIC32CX-BZ3 and WBZ35x Curiosity board features the following connection interfaces and peripherals:

  • mikroBUS™ socket
  • RGB LED
  • Ambient analog voltage temperature sensor
  • User button and LED
  • Onboard programmer/debugger circuit
  • External 32.768-kHz crystal
  • 64-Mbit QSPI Flash memory
  • Li-Po battery management and charging circuit

An Xplained Pro header interface also enables connections to extension boards like the QT7 Xplained Pro extension kit. This can be used to evaluate the capacitive touch capabilities of the PIC32CX-BZ3 SoC for HMI applications.
