    MCUs mentioned in section 1.1.1. Note that any MCU will work if the voltage levels are the same (3.3 V), otherwise level shifting is mandatory. Because Infineon offers software libraries compatible with Arduino and Infineon XMC™ boards, software setup for other MCU platforms might be more difficult.
  • Page 8 After that, connect the microcontroller board via USB to your computer and continue with the software setup as described in section 4. Note: By using Infineon’s MyIoT adapter, you can easily plug up to three Shield2Gos on an Arduino Uno Rev3 form factor due to the integrated level shifter on the adapter.
