8. Target Board
The C8051F500 Development Kit includes a target board with a C8051F500 (Side A) and C8051F502 (Side B)
device pre-installed for evaluation and preliminary software development. Numerous input/output (I/O) connections
are provided to facilitate prototyping using the target board. Refer to Figure 3 for the locations of the various I/O
connectors. Figure 4 on page 9 shows the factory default shorting block positions. A summary of the signal names
and headers is provided in Table 11 on page 16.
