This greatly simplifies the approach to the evaluation and design-in process. Based around the NXP ARM microprocessor LPC4330 and using a PC GUI, the information generated is formatted, timed and delivered to the target IC via selected C-BUS serial interfaces or a host port. The supplied control software can be used to perform C-BUS read and write operations, read or write sample data or run scripting functions. 2017 CML Microsystems Plc Platform Evaluation Kit Interface Card PE0003 In the case of FirmASIC IC evaluations, the Function Image can be loaded onto the CMX target device or programmed into serial memory on the target card. Communication with the PE0003 is via high-speed USB 2.0. The PE0003 provides an environment for C code development and evaluation using NXPs toolchain, LPCXpresso and JTAG. A set of proven C libraries can be downloaded in the PE0003 Support Package to assist with application development. 2017 CML Microsystems Plc 2 UM0003/3
