User Interface
The TMS570 Microcontroller Development Kit (MDK) is ideal for evaluating and starting development with the TMS570 family of
devices. It is comprised of a CPU card and an I/O base board. The kit contains on board XDS100v2 JTAG emulation along with
access to several key communication and peripheral interfaces.
Board Confidence Test & Demo:
The TMS570 Microcontroller Development Kit (MDK) Confidence Test &
Demo Application allows verification most functions of the CPU and I/O board’s functionality. It also provides a
demonstration of some of the kit’s functionality. This application comes pre-programmed into the TMS570 flash
memory and will automatically run when the +12V DC power supply is connected to the kit. The demonstration
is controlled using the menus on the board’s LCD. The application is included on the MDK DVD and can re-
programmed at a later time.
IMPORTANT:
Code Composer Studio 4.x or the TMS570 Safety MCU Demo software must be installed
before the USB mini-B cable for the CPU card’s XDS00v2 JTAG is plugged into the PC!
