The STEVAL-ILL075V1 evaluation board is designed to help familiarize the user with the STLUX family of digital controllers and their innovative SMED (state machine, event driven) architecture. A convenient GUI enables the user to quickly generate the optimal SMED configuration for the application. The external pins make it easy to inject SMED events and capture the SMED controlled PWM clock, thereby helping the user to validate the SMED configuration. Alternatively, the application circuit can be driven directly from the evaluation board. The board provides a micro-USB connector to allow programming, GUI connectivity and configuration via a terminal utility running on a PC. STLUX controllers integrate a serial interface which can be used to extend the STLUX communication capabilities via Bluetooth, WiFi or powerline modems.
