The easiest way to begin development with the C8051F55x, C8051F56x and, C8052F57x microcontroller families is with the fully functional “out-of-the-box” C8051F560DK MCU development kit.
A unique aspect of this development board is that it has one C8051F550 MCU device and one C8051F568 MCU device on a single board. This enables the designer to develop a fully functioning LIN 2.1 master/slave network with a single piece of hardware. Furthermore, the external connector and 12 V regulator allows the designer to interface to any existing LIN network for maximum design and test flexibility.
