ARM University Programs Lab-in-a-Box (LiB) Freescale and ARM University Programs have teamed up to provide you the Lab in a Box.  If you are interested in adopting the Lab-in-a-Box (LiB) in your course please contact the ARM University Program to request a donation! Development Boards The FRDM-KL25Z is an ultra-low-cost development platform enabled by Kinetis L Series KL1x and KL2x MCUs families built on ARM® Cortex™-M0+ processor. Features include easy access to MCU I/O, battery-ready, low-power operation, a standard-based form factor with expansion board options and a built-in debug interface for flash programming and run-control. The FRDM-KL25Z is supported by a range of Freescale and third-party development software. Freedom Development Platform Lab Exercise for Freescale Freedom KL25Z Board Software Tools ARM offers the Keil Microcontroller Development Kit (MDK-ARM) for ARM powered microcontrollers. It features the industry-standard compiler from ARM, the Keil µVision IDE, and sophisticated debug and data trace capabilities. MDK-ARM offers tailored support for all Cortex-M processor-based devices, and is the recommended solution for students working with standard ARM-based MCU devices. We suggest that students and universities download the free evaluation version of the tools, which offers all the features of the standard version, but with a 32 KByte object code/data limit.

Couple of new videos. This time I am running the FRDM-TFC library demo code written by Eli Hughes without any change at all-- successfully on my car. I have had the 0 ohm R24 res replaced with a higher one thanks to the soldering skills of David DiCarlo! The first video highlights demo modes 0 through 3: Car demos - YouTube Demo 0- test buttons and switches Demo 1- test servo Demo 2- test motors Second, I was able to get my little o-scope (xprotolab) to capture the camera analog out-- here: Camera testing - YouTube No major coding done but I understand the library and ports on the boards much better now.   Still haven't resolved the 'whining' apparent when I enable the H-bridge but I will try a few things this week-- it is possible it is harmless. Next steps, buffering camera data then on to control loops! Daniel Oh, I was also able to get the serial port working while code was running so I could get some dynamic feedback.
