STSW-L9177A Graphic user interface for EVAL-L9177A
Introduction
The present document describes the L9177A Graphical User Interface (GUI) that allows to
initialize and control the EVAL-L9177A evaluation board by changing parameters through
the SPI protocol, manage the parallel PWM input and read the output.
The L9177A GUI has been developed using Labview and it uses, as microcontroller
interface, the SPC563M-DISP Discovery+ evaluation board.
