NeoCortec Evaluation Boards come with an NC module installed to build applications. The board is designed to easily interface with a favorite host controller. Interfaces include a USB link to a PC with 2 virtual COM ports. An Application Port for sending and receiving payload data. A System Port for setting the configuration parameters and uploading new software releases. Arduino® & Raspberry Pi® Open Source microcontroller systems can be connected directly to the evaluation board through the dedicated connectors on the board. A set of “standard” footprints for microcontrollers like PIC or MSP430 allow for prototyping an actual design with a microcontroller without having to make custom hardware.
