An excellent tool that allows engineers to familiarize themselves with the EFM32™ Zero Gecko 32-bit microcontrollers (MCUs), the lowest power consumption MCUs on the market based on the ARM® Cortex®-M0+ processor.
The EFM32ZG-STK3200 starter kit contains sensors and peripherals to demonstrate some of the many capabilities of microcontrollers and can serve as a starting point for application development. The kit includes a SEGGER J-Link debugger and an advanced power management system that allows engineers to program, debug, and perform real-time profiling of an application without the need for external tools.
Other features of this kit include:
• Backup capacitor for RTC mode
• USB interface for host/device/OTG
• LESENSE (Low Energy Sensor Interface) for testing
• Light, LC (inductive), and touch sensors
• Free evaluation compiler versions
The Zero Gecko Starter Kit is compatible with the Simplicity Studio software suite, a comprehensive graphical user interface environment for major computing platforms such as Microsoft® Windows®, Linux, and Mac/OS X. Available free with the kit, Simplicity Studio provides developers with one-click access to all the information, documentation, energyAware tools, software, and source code libraries needed to quickly develop energy-aware applications.
The Silicon Labs EFM32 Zero Gecko starter kit is available from RS online with 24-hour delivery.
