Evaluation module features

This evaluation board consists of an MC08XS6421 IC in a 32-pin SOIC-EP with exposed pads.
This board can control
- Four separate 28 W bulbs
- Two separate 55 W HID ballasts
- Four separate LED modules
- Four separate loads of other types
Device can be driven by the 16-bit SPI using KITUSBSPI with SPIGen software or with direct input signals in Fail-safe mode operation. It also offers the possibility to apply an external clock in order to drive outputs in PWM operation.

MC08XS6421 features
