Can anyone help me figure out how to use k22f evaluation module with Windows 8? What IDE should I use? Any preparatory steps required? The QuickStart guide isn't much help. I can't seem to get a COM port assigned to this board, no matter which SDA driver I use.

Hi Jeff,

KDS should support K22F device, please refer to Kinetis Design Studio Integrated Development |Freescale for more details.

Have a great day,

You need to install the mbed serial driver:

Windows serial configuration - Handbook | mbed

And there is the free and unlimited Kinetis IDE which supports that board (FRDM-K22F): See Kinetis Design Studio Integrated Development |Freescale for download and Kinetis Design Studio for the community around it.

Thanks a bunch! I used the OpenSDAv2.1 J-Link firmware from https://segger.com/opensda.html (in the JlinkOpenSDAV2.1 zip file) and apparently have a USB drive that my system likes, incluiding serial drivers that my Windows 8 Device Manager finds acceptable.  I also loaded KDS and have compiled and run the HelloWorld app successfully. Now I need to start playing with I?O pins and peripherals on the board. Do you know where I can find the appropriate libraries to include in my source code? Are these in the SDK that I installed somewhere on my computer?

Oh, and sample applications would be nice. Any idea where to find these?

Hi Jeff,

If you installed KSDK, you may find demos in the folder of "C:\Freescale\KSDK_1.0.0\demos".

Hope that helps,

BTW, Since there is a new space for KSDK topics already, if you need more help on KSDK, I can help to move your thread into https://community.freescale.com/community/kinetis/kinetis-software-development-kit.

Have a great day,
Kan
