C2000 Peripheral Explorer Kit

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CONTROLSUITE

Hello, my name is Pedro and I have a question related to the C2000 Peripheral Explorer Kit (TMDSPREX28335).

I would like to ask what are the differences between this specific kit and the TMS320F28335 eZdsp starter kit (TMDSEZ28335). I'm fairly familiar with the latter, but I can't find that much information about the explorer kit. Can I use it to control an induction motor, for example, using its ADCs and ePWMs? 

Essentially, I'm asking if both can be used in the same manner.

Thank you 

  • Hi Luis,

    C2000 Peripheral Explorer Kit (TMDSPREX28335) is enough for your implementation. This kit has enough ADCs and PWMs to play with. You can go through their respective schematics if you need anymore detailed view.

  • Thank you for your answer. The thing is that is precisely my issue. I can't find any information about the explorer kit, more specifically, the schematics, the working voltages, the pinouts, etc. Where can I find it?

    The Explorer kit comes with a 2page panphlet that doesn't provide me that data.

    Thanks

  • Hi,

    Download controlSuite. You'll get all the board info and their relevant sample codes.

  • Luis,

    The Peripheral Explorer schematics can be found in controlSUITE:
    \controlSUITE\development_kits\PeripheralExplorer\TMDSPREX28335-HWDevPackage[R5]\PeripheralExplorerBaseboardHWdevPkg

    A lot of software examples that work with the F28335 can be found in controlSUITE as well (under device_support).

    In addition, the C2000 Teaching ROM is great for beginners and many of the exercises in it are built around the Peripheral Explorer.  A link to the C2000 Teaching ROM that goes along with this kit can be found in the TMDSPREX28335 tool folder:

    Thank you,
