Introduction
This User Manual mainly describes the functions, on-board resources and supporting
SDK of APM32F051 EVA Board. The SDK and related data mentioned in the document
can be obtained from the official website of Geehy (www.geehy. com).
APM32 Ecosystem
The APM32 ecosystem includes product application solution, hardware development
board, download simulation tool, development tool chain and SDK. Moreover, the
development tool chain is suitable for many development tools at home and abroad,
such as Keil-MDK, IAR for Arm, Eclipse, etc., and all of them are equipped with relevant
enginering in the SDK to meet the needs of different users in different platforms.

Evaluation board
The APM32F051 EVAL Board is a complete demonstration and development platform
for the basic APM32F0xx series MCU, which is used to demonstrate RS485, RTC, TSC
and other peripheral functions. It carries an APM32F051R8T6 MCU chip, which is based
on ARM Cortex-M0+core, with operating frequency 48MHz, Flash 64KB, and has a
standard JTAG interface and supports users to simulate and download programs.

3.4.1 ADC
The ADC uses a 10K potentiometer as the sampling source, which can be adjusted by
the knob. The AD sampling channel is channel 10. After downloading and running of the
routine, the change of the voltage value sampled by ADC will be displayed in real time
on the on-board LCD.

3.4.2 I2C EEPROM
EEPROM adopts AT24C02, the device address is 0xA0, and the addressing address is
8bit. After downloading and running of the routine, the routine test process is to write and
read 255 data to EEPROM and compare them.
