NXP Semiconductors MCXW72-LOC MCU Evaluation Board
NXP Semiconductor MCXW72-LOC MCU Evaluation Board is a highly configurable, low-power, cost-effective evaluation and development platform based on the NXP MCXW72 MCU product family. It offers an easy-to-use user interface with a virtual serial port and standard programming and run-control capabilities. By default, the board supports antenna switching and therefore, provides the most suitable development and evaluation platform for the BLUETOOTH® LE Channel Sounding feature.
The NXP Semiconductor MCXW72-LOC board provides RF circuitry, two high-speed CAN transceivers, 64Mbit QSPI NOR Flash memory, and a 32MHz crystal. It also includes two SMA connector footprints for the conducted measurements. It is compatible with Mikroe click boards. The board is a standalone PCB that supports application development using NXP's GFSK libraries. It can be used with a wide range of development tools, including NXP MCUXpresso for Visual Studio Code extension and IAR Embedded Workbench. The board is lead-free and RoHS-compliant.
