Setting Up and Using the Hardware
In order to perform the demonstration examples, first set up the evaluation board hardware and software as
follows:
1. Install the MC33907_8 graphical user interface
2. Plug the daughter board onto the mother board platform (KIT33908MBEVBE)
3. Connect the power supply to the mother board and switch it on (verify the power supply’s polarity)
4. Connect the mother board to the PC using USB A-B cable
5. Wait for the driver installation (after the first connection, drivers for the device have to be installed. This can
take several minutes. When finished, a status message will be displayed)
6. Launch the MC33907_8 graphical user interface
7. Select the EVM button on the welcome screen to choose the enhanced evaluation board option
8. Switch to the “Read registers 5” where you should see an on-going watchdog refresh (bits of the
WD_LFSR register will be blinking)

Evaluation Board Hardware Description
From the functional point of view, the KIT33908MBEVBEE motherboard can be separated into two different
sections: analog and digital. The analog part consists of the MC33908 chip and its associated circuitry. The
digital part consists of the MCU peripherals.
