Note: this page is made avaialble for historical reference only.

The FRDM-KW24D512 is a development platform based on the Our MKW24D512 Kinetis® W Series microcontroller and is enabled by software support for Thread, ZigBee Pro, 802.15.4 MAC, SMAC and Kinetis Software Development Kit (SDK). The FRDM-KW24D512 kit contains two boards, enabling point-to-point out of the box connectivity.

Kinetis MKW24D512 MCU is a low-power, compact integrated device consisting of a high-performance 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 compliant radio transceiver and a powerful Arm® Cortex®-M4 core system with connectivity and precision mixed-signal analog peripherals.

FRDM-KW24D512 evaluation boards are designed to work either in standalone mode or as part of the Freedom development platforms for quick application prototyping. They are fully supported by a comprehensive enablement environment.
