Overview
The Fusion Advanced Development Kit is fully RoHS-compliant and provides an excellent platform for developing microprocessor applications and other system management applications. The M1AFS1500 ARM ®-enabled Fusion mixed-signal flash FPGA on the board supports ARM CortexTM-M1, Core8051s, and other soft IP processors. The kit supports the following functions:
- Power-up detection
- Thermal management
- Power sequencing
- Sleep modes
- System diagnostics
- Remote communications
- Clock generation and management
The Fusion Advanced Development Kit also includes support for the Mixed signal Power Manager Daughter Card Kit. The lower section of the board marked Power Supply MGMT Area can be used in conjunction with the MPM design example to develop voltage sequencing and power management.
