ARM Cortex-M4F-Based MCU TM4C1294 Connected LaunchPad Evaluation Kit

ARM Cortex-M4F-Based MCU TM4C1294 Connected LaunchPad Evaluation Kit

The Tiva™ C Series TM4C1294 Connected LaunchPad Evaluation Board (EK-TM4C1294XL) is a low-cost evaluation platform for ARM® Cortex™-M4F-based microcontrollers. The Connected LaunchPad design highlights the TM4C1294NCPDT microcontroller with its on-chip 10/100 Ethernet MAC and PHY, USB 2.0, hibernation module, motion control pulse-width modulation and a multitude of simultaneous serial connectivity.

The Connected LaunchPad also features two user switches, four user LEDs, dedicated reset and wake switches, a breadboard expansion option and two independent BoosterPack XL expansion connectors.

The pre-programmed QuickStart application on the Connected LaunchPad also enables remote monitoring and control of the evaluation board from an internet browser anywhere in the world. The web interface is provided by 3rd party, Exosite. Each Connected LaunchPad is enabled on the Exosite platform allowing users to create and customize their own Internet-of-Things applications.

You will learn how use TI Software tools like the Code Composer Studio IDE and Energia software to develop code for your project. You'll learn how to write code that monitors real-time sensor measurements, how to send firmware code to the Tiva Evaluation module, and even how to quickly add new features to your existing project simply by changing a few lines of code. 

Skill level: The IoT Evaluation Kit is best for Intermediate IoT project builders, but the components and content are appropriate for all levels of experience.
