limit threshold
• Highly accurate real-time current feedback through a current mirror output signal with less
than 5.0% error

fication in H-Bridge mode

4 FRDM-KL25Z Freedom SPI dongle
The NXP Freedom development platform is a set of software and hardware tools supporting evaluation and development. It is ideal for
rapid prototyping of microcontroller-based applications. The NXP Freedom KL25Z hardware, FRDM-KL25Z, is a simple, yet sophisticated
design featuring a Kinetis L Series microcontroller, the industry's first microcontroller built on the ARM® Cortex™-M0+ core.
Figure 11. FRDM-KL25Z
4.1 Connecting the FRDM-KL25Z to the board
The FRDM-KL25Z evaluation board was chosen specifically to work with the FRDM-HB2001-EVM kit because of its low cost and features.
The FRDM-KL25Z board makes use of the USB, built in LEDs and I/O ports available with NXP’s Kinetis KL2x family of microcontrollers.
The FRDM-KL25Z connects to a PC through a USB port, which permits the user to control a DC brushed motor and to drive the evaluation
board inputs in order to operate the motor via the GPIOs and SPI pins. The FRDM-KL25Z also monitors the SPI registers, thereby
facilitating the use of safety and advanced diagnostic functions.
The FRDM-HB2001-EVM connects to the FRDM-KL25Z using the four dual row Arduino™ R3 connectors on the bottom of the board (see
Table 9, Figure 12 and Figure 13).

FRDM-KL25Z
To configure the FRDM-HB2001-EVM for use with the FRDM-KL25Z do the following:
1. Connect the FRDM-HB2001-EVM to the FRDM-KL25Z using the Arduino™ connectors on each board.
2. Connect the USB cable (not supplied with the kit) between the PC and the KL25Z USB port on the FRDM-KL25Z board.
3. With the power switched off, attach the DC power supply to the VBAT and GND screw connector terminal (J20) on the
evaluation board.
4. Connect the load to the screw terminal (J21).
Figure 14 illustrates the hardware configuration using a FRDM-KL25Z.

5.1.2 Step-by-step instructions for setting up the hardware for use with a function
generator
This section describes how to configure the FRDM-HB2001-EVM for use with a function generator. The same connections apply if the
board is connected to a microcontroller instead of a function generator. See the board description (Section 3.4, Board description, page
8), the schematic (Section 6, Schematic, page 25) and the MC33HB2001 datasheet, to configure the board for use in a specific
environment.
1. Connect the function generator to the EX_IN jumper, with one channel attached to each pin.
2. Change the board jumper connections, as shown in Figure 15.
3. With the power switched off, attach the DC power supply to the VBAT and GND screw connector terminal (J20) on the
evaluation board.
4. Connect the load to the screw terminal (J21).
Figure 15 illustrates the hardware configuration.

5.2 Installing and using SPIGen on the computer
The latest version of SPIGen supports the MC33HB2001 and is designed to run on any Windows 8, Windows 7, Vista, or XP-based
operating system. To install the software, do the following:
1. Go to the following website and click on the Download button: www.nxp.com/SPIGen.
2. When the SPIGEN: SPI Generator (SPIGen) Software page appears, go to the Device Drivers section and click on the
Download button associated with the description of the select environment. A wizard guides the user through the process.
3. If instructed for the SPIGen wizard to create a short-cut, a SPIGen icon appears on the desktop. If elected not to create a
short-cut, the SPIGen executable is installed by default at C:Program Files\SPIGen.
Note:
Installing the device drivers overwrites any previous SPIGen installation and replaces it with a current
version containing the MC33HB2001 drivers. However, configuration files (.spi) from the previous
version remain intact.
4. Launch SPIGen. The HB2000/HB2001 device should appear in the Device View panel at the left (see Figure 14).
Figure 16. SPIGen home page
5. To access the HB2000/HB2001 tab in the SPIGen window, expand the HB2000/HB2001 folder in the Device View. Then click on
the Registers icon (see Figure 17).
If the pre-programmed code on FRDM-KL25Z is accidentally erased, download "UsbSpiDongleKL25Z_SPIDrive_v512.srec" from the
