DEVELOPMENT KITS

The Kionix Accelerometer Application and Firmware Development Kit provides a simple environment to quickly begin the development of applications and firmware that incorporate Kionix accelerometers. The Development Kit provides a common interface to Kionix evaluation boards. The included software provides an easy-to-use interface for displaying and recording acceleration data. Plus, a graphical register map allows the user to see and change the contents of control registers.

Silicon LabsThe Silicon Labs development board allows the use of a standard 8051 microcontroller core and a USB interface for PC development/evaluation environments. Additionally, the F340 Adapter Board provides a visual indication (through an LED array) of interrupts (motion and tap) and screen rotation output states for Kionix products that include those functionalities.

DEVELOPMENT BOARDS

The EZ430-C7 is an evaluation board (containing Kionix's KXSC7 accelerometer) which easily plugs into the Texas Instruments eZ430-F2013. The eZ430-F2013 is a complete MSP430 development tool including all the hardware and software to evaluate the MSP430F2013 and develop a complete project in a convenient USB stick form factor.

EVALUATION BOARDS

To facilitate prototype work with Kionix accelerometers, Kionix has created evaluation boards for each accelerometer product. The evaluation boards provide access to the pins of the accelerometer, contain all of the appropriate decoupling capacitors and pull-up resistors, and allow for easy connection into a prototyping system. Evaluation boards are available for the following products:
