Modular concept
For maximum flexibility and simplicity, the EVB has been designed as a modular development platform. The EVB
main board does not contain an MCU. Instead, the MCU is fitted to an MCU daughter card (occasionally referred
to as an adapter board). This approach means that the same EVB platform can be used for multiple packages
and MCU derivatives within the SPC58xx family and the SPC57xx family. High density connectors provide the
interface between the EVB and MCU daughter cards as shown in the figure below. See
for more details on the daughter cards and
Section 4.17 Board interface connectors
details on the interface connectors.

Modular concept - motherboard and MCU daughter card
For details on your specific daughter card, please consult the instructions included with the daughter card.
The EVB is designed to use the motherboard and the daughter in conjunction. However, it is possible to use the
daughter cards standalone.
