Stellaris® LM3S6965 Evaluation Kit
The Stellaris LM3S6965 Evaluation Kit for Ethernet provides a low-cost way to start
designing Ethernet applications with Stellaris microcontrollers. The LM3S6965 Evaluation
Board (EVB) can function as either a complete evaluation target, or as a debugger interface to
any external Stellaris device. The included USB cable is all that is needed to provide power
and communication to the host PC.
LM3S6965 Evaluation Board
Requirements
You have a PC, with a USB interface, running Microsoft® Windows 2000. XP, or Vista
You have the Stellaris LM3S6965 Evaluation Kit Documentation and Software CD
Board Set-Up
The LM3S6965 Evaluation Board is configured for immediate use. To power the EVB, use
the USB cable supplied in the kit. Connect the mini-b (smaller) end of the USB cable to the
connector labeled "USB TO JTAG/SWD" on the EVB. Connect the other end (Type A) to a
free USB port on your host PC. The USB is capable of sourcing up to 500 mA for each
attached device, which is sufficient for the evaluation board. If connecting the board through a
USB hub, it must be a powered hub.
