This document describes the board level operations of the RM42 Hercules™ Development Kit (HDK). The HDK is based on the Texas Instruments RM42L432 Microcontroller. The RM42 HDK is a table top card that allows engineers and software developers to evaluate certain characteristics of the RM42L432 microcontroller to determine if the microcontroller meets the designer application requirements.
The RM42L432 HDK is a low cost and easy to use hardware and software platform for evaluating the functionality of the Texas Instruments RM42L432 microcontroller family. Project collateral, schematics and PCB layouts discussed in this application report can be downloaded from the following URL: (http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/RM42_HDK_Kit).
