TWR-K20D50M: Kinetis K20 50 MHz Tower System Module

Overview

NXP recommends the FRDM – K22F development platform as an alternative to this board.

The TWR-K20D50M module is a development board for the Kinetis^® K10 and K20 50 MHz 32-bit Arm^® Cortex^®-M4 MCUs and provides rapid prototyping for applications requiring high feature integration and low power consumption.

The TWR-K20D50M operates as a standalone debug tool and can also be combined and used as part of the modular Tower^® System development platform.
