DA1468x
– The hardware
The Pro Development Kit (ProDK) consists of a main board (MB-PRO) and a daughterboard
featuring DA1468x SoC of the desired package (AQFN60 or WLCSP).
5.1
The ProDK mainboard
illustrates the physical layout of the ProDK. The two (2) daughter boards containing
DA1468x devices (AQFN60 as well as WLCSP packages) are shown in
The ProDK main board provides all necessary hardware to enable:
●
Full functional verification of the DA1468x family of products with the ability to take precise power
measurements by isolating the DA1468x device.
●
Full digital connectivity with external hardware using UART, SPI, I2C, quadrature encoder or
GPIOs.
●
USB based debugging capabilities using the SEGGER J-Link on-board debugger.
●
USB based UART communication with the host PC using a Future Technology Devices
International (FTDI) chipset which converts UART to USB.

The ProDK daughter-boards
The ProDK mainboard can be combined with one of the two daughter-boards shown in
These daughter boards allow evaluation of the two different package options for the DA1468x
devices. The daughter-boards each have a switch to select the power supply for the device:
