The Hercules TMS570LS12x LaunchPad is an inexpensive evaluation platform designed to help you get started quickly in evaluating and developing with Hercules microcontroller family.
The LaunchPad is based on the Hercules TMS570LS1224 MCU, which is an auto grade lockstep ARM® Cortex®-R4F based MCU. Its integrated safety features and peripherals are two 12-bit ADCs, programmable High-End timers, motor control peripherals (eQEP, eCAP, ePWM), MibSPI and serial communication interfaces. Hercules TMS570 series MCUs are designed specifically for ISO 26262 and IEC 61508 functional safety automotive applications. The LauchPad features on-board emulation for programming and debugging, push buttons, LEDs and ambient light sensor, and two standard 40 pin BoosterPack expansion connectors (only one header is populated) to support a wide range of plug-in BoosterPack modules for added functionality such as displays, wireless sensor, and more. This LaunchPad comes pre-programmed with a demo code, enabling users to easily learn about the key safety, data acquisition, and control features of the Hercules MCU platform.
