Demonstrating easy to get, easy to use ColdFire development support, the M5213EVB is a low cost development system for the Freescale MCF521x ColdFire microcontroller family. Application development is quick and easy with the included DB9 serial cable and dBUG firmware monitor. The BDM port is compatible with standard ColdFire BDM / JTAG interface cables and hosting software, allowing easy application debugging and development with a variety of hardware and software tools.
This cost-efficient evaluation kit offers impressive additions with a fully licensed, complimentary Special Edition of the CodeWarrior Development Studio for ColdFire Architectures for development of applications up to 128Kbytes code size, as well as a host of ther low cost and professional tools from leading 3rd party tool vendors The kit also comes equipped with the MC13192 Zigbee-ready transceiver on board with and integrated Zigbee antenna making the board an impressive low cost ZigBee-enabled reference design.
The evaluation board comes fitted with an 80MHz MCF5213 microcontroller (256 Kbyte internal flash). The MCF5213 microcontroller has a superset of the same functional modules and interfaces as those on the other devices supported.
See the MCF521X product page for more information on the differences on how to evaluate each microcontroller using the M5213EVB.
