Free EFM32 Cortex-M3 MCU development kits at Electronica 2012

##IMAGE_1_R##Each starter kit features a capacitive touch slider, battery operation, SEGGER J-Link debugger, and support for Energy Micro's free energyAware Profiler tool. The energyAware Profiler is used to debug software real-time and shows power profiles and current consumption so designers can achieve minimum energy consumption. The onboard EFM32 Giant Gecko microcontroller features the ARM Cortex-M3 processor and 1024KB Flash memory. Options include USB, direct drive TFT, LCD control, 12-bit ADC, op-amps, multiple serial interfaces and CPU speeds up to 48 MHz. Additional low energy features include the Low Energy Sensor interface which allows capacitive, inductive and resistive sensor processing at the 1µA level. Many more autonomous low energy peripherals are available that enable control algorithms in Deep Sleep Mode, without CPU intervention, with a current consumption of about 1µA in total.



In addition to the free kit, designers can obtain free samples of EFM32 Gecko microcontrollers directly from Energy Micro.
