How to use the EVAL-L99MOD5xXP evaluation kit
Introduction
This document describes the STSW-L99MOD5xXP graphical user interface (GUI) dedicated to set and control the EVAL-
L99MOD5xXP family evaluation kit.
The EVAL-L99MOD5xXP evaluation kit consists in a motherboard and a daughterboard on which the L99MOD5xXP device is
assembled. Both of these evaluation boards provide electronic control modules with enhanced power management
functionalities including a standby mode. These evaluation boards are designed to drive multiple brushed DC motors and
additional loads in high-side configuration, such as bulbs, LEDs or protected supply.
The STSW-L99MOD5xXP has been developed using C++ and works with a motherboard based on an SPC560B microcontroller
which is programmed with a dedicated firmware to drive the specific L99MOD5xXP device assembled on the daughterboard.
