Tiva C Series EK-TM4C123GXL LaunchPad Boad

Description

The TM4C123G LaunchPad Evaluation Kit is a low-cost evaluation platform for ARM Cortex-M4F based microcontrollers from Texas Instruments. The design of the TM4C123G LaunchPad highlights the TM4C123GH6PM microcontroller with a USB 2.0 device interface and hibernation module.

The EK-TM4C123GXL also features programmable user buttons and an RGB LED for custom applications. The stackable headers of the TM4C123G LaunchPad BoosterPack™ XL Interface make it easy and simple to expand the functionality of the TM4C123G LaunchPad when interfacing to other peripherals with Texas Instruments MCU BoosterPack.

Switch and LED interface

  • PC0-PC3 is used for JTAG connections to the debugger on the LaunchPad.
  • The LaunchPad connects PB6 to PD0, and PB7 to PD1.
  • If you wish to use both PB6 and PD0 you will need to remove the R9 resistor.
  • Similarly, to use both PB7 and PD1 remove the R10 resistor
