The MCF8315RRYEVM allows users to evaluate the performance of a MCF8315 motor driver. The EVM includes an onboard FTDI chip to convert USB communication, from the micro-USB connector, into UART. An onboard MSP430FR2355 microcontroller (MCU) translates the UART communication into control signals, which is sent to the MCF8315 device. There are many user-selectable jumpers, resistors, connectors, and test points to assist with evaluating the many features of the MCF8315 IC and the configurable device-specific settings.
