Texas Instruments C2000 Piccolo LaunchPad LAUNCHXL-F28069M development board

Texas Instruments’ C2000 Piccolo LaunchPad, LAUNCHXL-F28069M, is a full development board for Piccolo F2806x devices and InstaSPIN technology. The product is based on the Piccolo TMS320F28069M, with features such as 256 KB of onboard flash, 12-bit ADC, I²C, SPI, UART, CAN, dual Encoder support and InstaSPIN libraries in on-chip, execute-only ROM memory.

Board hardware features include an integrated isolated XDS100v2 JTAG emulator for easy programming and debugging. The product works with various BoosterPacks but is specifically designed for the BOOSTXL-DRV8301. Besides JTAG emulation, the USB interface provides a UART serial connection from the F2806x device to the host PC.

Users can download an unrestricted version of Code Composer Studio IDE version 6 to write, download and debug applications on the board. The debugger is unobtrusive and allows the user to run an application at full speed, with hardware breakpoints and single stepping available, while consuming no extra hardware resources.
