Infineon

The RGB LED lighting shield is compatible with Arduino as well as Infineon’s XMC1100 boot kit. It is easily configurable for various LED light engines and lamps, allowing for fast prototyping and cheap evaluation of LED lighting designs. 

The RGB LED lighting shield based on the XMC1302 microcontroller uses a dc-dc buck converter topology, and can drive up to three LED channels with a constant current. The shield’s XMC1302 MCU features an embedded brightness color control unit (BCCU) for flicker-free LED dimming and color control. 

The BCCU enables low-cost but high-quality LED lighting solutions, with minimal need for code generation. The RGB LED lighting shield also provides options for the evaluation of smooth, eye-friendly dimming and color mixing for various topologies

Monolithic Power Systems

The EVM3804-G-00A provides a ready-made hardware platform for evaluating the MPM3804 step-down switch-mode converter module. 

The module, supplied in a surface-mount 2 mm x 2 mm QFN package, supplies a maximum continuous output current of 0.6 A from an input voltage ranging between 2.3 V and 5.5 V, with excellent load and line regulation. 

The output voltage can be regulated as low as 0.6V. Only input, output capacitors and feedback resistors are needed to complete the design.

STMicroelectronics

The X-NUCLEO-PGEEZ1 expansion board provides an evaluation platform for the M95P32 series SPI page EEPROM memory. This expansion board enables developers to evaluate the EEPROM’s performance via a single/dual/quad SPI interface.

STMicroelectronics

The STM32MP135F-DK Discovery Kit for the STM32MP13x line of microprocessors enables users to develop applications using the STMicroelectronics OpenSTLinux operating system software. The MPU is backed by a 4 Gbit DDR3L DRAM.

 

Microchip

The IGLOO2 Evaluation Kit makes it easier to develop embedded devices for motor control, system management, industrial automation or high-speed serial I/O applications based on the IGLOO2 FPGAs. These FPGAs are notable for their strong feature integration, low power consumption, exceptional reliability, and proven security. 

 The IGLOO2 Evaluation Kit provides a platform to develop transceiver I/O-based FPGA designs for PCI Express- and Gigabit Ethernet-based systems. The board is compliant with the small form-factor PCIe format, allowing quick prototyping and evaluation using any desktop PC or laptop with a PCIe slot. 

 The kit enables developers to:

  • Develop and test PCI Express Gen2 x1 lane designs
  • Test signal quality of the FPGA transceiver using full-duplex SERDES SMA pairs
  • Measure the low power consumption of the IGLOO2 FPGA
  • Quickly create a working PCIe link 

The board includes an RJ45 interface to 10/100/1000 Ethernet, 512 Mbits of LPDDR, 64 Mbits of SPI Flash, and USB-UART connections as well as I2C, SPI and GPIO headers.
