1.2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND FEATURES

The EVB is an economical tool for designing and debugging code for, and evaluating the
operation of, the MC68HC192B32 MCU. By providing the essential MCU timing and I/O
circuitry, the EVB simplifies user evaluation of prototype hardware and software.
The board consists of a 5.15 by 3.4 inch (13.1 by 8.64 cm) double-sided printed circuit board
(PCB) that provides the platform for interface and power connections to the MC68HC912B32
MCU chip.
Figure 1-1 shows the EVB's layout and locations of the major components, as viewed from the
component side of the board.
Hardware features of the low-cost EVB include:
• Double-sided PCB
• Single-supply +3 to +5 Vdc power input (P5)
• RS-232C interface
• BDM IN and BDM OUT connectors for remote debugging of a user's target system
