Starter kit offers easy way to evaluate and develop with Leopard Gecko wireless MCUs

The Silicon Labs EZR32 Leopard Gecko Wireless Starter Kit is now available from Farnell element14. It offers a convenient way to evaluate and develop on the EZR32 Leopard Gecko Wireless MCUs. The kit comes in three options - the WSTK6200, WSTK6201 and WSTK6202 - offering clock frequencies ranging from 434MHz to 915MHz and output power ranging from +10dBm to +20dBm. The core of the WSTK6200 is the Wireless Starter Kit (WSTK) Mainboard (BRD4001), which features an on-board J-Link debugger, an Advanced Energy Monitor for real-time current and voltage monitoring, a Virtual COM port interface, and access to the Packet Trace Interface (PTI). The WSTK Mainboard is paired with an EZR32 Leopard Gecko radio board that plugs directly into the mainboard. The radio board features the EZR32 Leopard Gecko itself and the RF interface. All debug functionality, including AEM, VCOM and PTI, can also be used towards an external target instead of the included radio board. The WSTK Mainboard also contains sensors and peripherals that demonstrate some of the Wireless MCU's many capabilities, says the company.
