ABSTRACT
The LAUNCHXL-F280039C is a low-cost development board for the Texas Instruments C2000™ Real-Time
Microcontroller series of F28003x devices. It is designed around the TMS320F280039C real-time MCU and
highlights the control, analog, and communications peripherals, as well as the integrated nonvolatile memory.
The LaunchPad also features two independent BoosterPack XL expansion connectors (80-pins), on-board
Controller Area Network (CAN) transceiver supporting both standard CAN (DCAN) and CAN-FD (MCAN), two
5 V encoder interface (eQEP) connectors, FSI connector, power-domain isolation, and an on-board XDS110
debug probe.
Figure 1-1 highlights the key features of the F28003x LaunchPad.
