Featuring the Freescale
Flexis USB JM-series
8 and 32 bit processors |
Purpose: Familiarize the student with the requirements and skills to design an embedded USB device, write drivers and applications for a device in Microsoft Windows, and to design an embedded USB host and on-the-go device.
This class features the newly-released Freescale MCS08JM60 and MCF51JM128 Controller Continuum 8- and 32-bit processors. These processors are “drop-in” pin-for-pin compatible and can be programmed and written with the same integrated development environment and programming interface. The MCS08JM60 features a full-speed USB 2.0 device and the MCF51JM128 features a full-speed USB 2.0 device as well as on-the-go for hosting capabilities.
Students will receive a DEMOJM development board with interchangeable MCS08JM60 and MCF51JM128 processors, a copy of the CodeWarrior™ 6.1 IDE with 30-day full license, all code and presentation slides, as well as all cables needed. Students will also receive copies of Microsoft VB 2008 Express and Microsoft VC++ Express as well as the USB drivers from the Microsoft Windows Driver Development Kit (DDK). All students receive a certificate of participation (suitable for framing!). CEU's AVAILABLE - Contact us for more info!
| **NEW** To teach debug and troubleshooting techniques, we have selected the Beagle USB12 protocol analyzer from Total Phase. You can take advantage of special pricing and can purchase your own USB12 protocol analyzer as part of your registration and take your own analyzer home at the end of the class. Please see the registration page for more details! |
