Overview

The EK-TM4C1294XL is a high-performance LaunchPad evaluation kit featuring the Tiva C Series TM4C1294NCPDT microcontroller. It is designed for connected applications, integrating an ARM Cortex-M4F core with a 10/100 Ethernet MAC and PHY directly on the board.

Why Choose This Part

The board offers a unique advantage with its built-in Ethernet PHY, reducing the need for external daughterboards for networking. It provides a massive 1024 KB of Flash and 256 KB of RAM, which is significantly higher than entry-level evaluation boards, supporting complex TCP/IP stacks and RTOS environments.

Applications

Industrial Gateway
Utilizing the integrated Ethernet and multiple UART/I2C interfaces to bridge industrial fieldbus protocols to cloud services.
Building Automation
Managing HVAC and lighting systems using the 8 PWM channels and extensive GPIO for sensor and actuator control.
Networked Motion Control
Leveraging the hardware PWM and FPU for real-time motor control loops synchronized over a local network.

Getting Started

Start development by downloading Code Composer Studio (CCS) or using the TI Cloud Tools. Connect the board via the micro-USB cable for both power and programming via the on-board ICDI debugger, and leverage the TivaWare SDK for peripheral drivers and Ethernet stack examples.

Also Consider
