An ultra-low-cost, all-in-one development tool for evaluating, developing and debugging Kinetis MCUs features the K40X256VLQ100 (144LQFP) MCU with USB, touch-sensing and segment LCD functionality. It comes pre-flashed with demonstration software to exercise a small portion of the capabilities of the Kinetis K40X256 device and the KwikStik hardware. The on-board Segger™ J-Link™ debug interface allows the user to evaluate the features of the on-board K40 MCU or to develop, debug and program their own target hardware based on any Kinetis MCU.

The KWIKSTIK-K40 can be combined and used with several peripheral modules in the Tower System; it can also be operated as a standalone debug tool. Be sure to check the "Downloads" tab for updated software and lab guides to walk you through how to build, program and run the latest demonstration software. Version 5 of the Kinetis KwikStik development tool is shipping now. Refer to the KwikStik-K40 Hardware Errata for complete details on the hardware versions.
