The new C2000 Teaching ROM is a comprehensive guide to C2000 MCUs, also providing an introduction to real-time control design considerations. The Teaching ROM includes labs based on TI’s F28335 Peripheral Explorer Kit for superior hands-on learning.
This new F28335 Peripheral Explorer Kit brings increased integration over previous explorer kits to reduce development cost and enhance learning exercises. Together, the Teaching ROM and Peripheral Explorer Kit will enable more engineers to leverage the performance of C2000 MCUs to develop more energy-efficient real-time control applications, such as motor control, digital power, renewable energy and lighting.
