Introduction
The C2000™ Piccolo™ LaunchPad™, LAUNCHXL-F28069M, is a complete low-cost development board
for the Texas Instruments Piccolo F2806x devices and InstaSPIN technology. The LAUNCHXL-F28069M
kit features all the hardware and software necessary to develop applications based on the F2806x
microprocessor. The LaunchPad is based on the superset F28069M device, and easily allows users to
migrate to lower cost F2806x devices once the design needs are known. It offers an on-board JTAG
emulation tool allowing direct interface to a PC for easy programming, debugging, and evaluation. In
addition to JTAG emulation, the USB interface provides a universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter
(UART) serial connection from the F2806x device to the host PC.
Users can download an unrestricted version of Code Composer Studio™ IDE to write, download, and
debug applications on the LAUNCHXL-F28069M board. The debugger is unobtrusive, allowing the user to
run an application at full speed with hardware breakpoints and single stepping available while consuming
no extra hardware resources.
As shown in
