评估板S32R274EVB

The S32R274EVB evaluation board (EVB) is an evaluation tool for the S32R274 Radar MCU to enable hardware and software development.

For maximum flexibility and simplicity, the EVB has been designed as a modular development platform. The EVB main board does not contain an MCU. Instead, the MCU is fitted to an MCU daughter card (occasionally referred to as an adapter board). This approach means that the same EVB platform can be used for multiple packages and MCU derivatives within the MPC57xx and further families. High density connectors provide the interface between the EVB and MCU daughter cards as shown in the diagram below.

Both variants allow you to start with the software development, and to experience the highly integrated Radar Signal Processing Toolbox (SPT) along with state of the art functional safety and hardware security features (CSE2).
