LAUNCHXL-F28069M: I need an alternative launchxl kit recommendation.

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-F28069M
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CONTROLSUITE, C2000WARE, LAUNCHXL-F280049C, LAUNCHXL-F28379D

Hello all,

I have been using LAUNCHXL-F28069M kit and its pinout diagram is given below.

https://e2e.ti.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/171/lauchxl_2D00_f28069m.PNG

I have used its many features inside my program (i2c, epwm, sci, flash memory map, adc) but now as I understand I need to change my kit according to my needs.

1- Launchxl-f28069m does not have a physical DAC output. I need at least 1 DAC output to adapt for a proportional valve.

2- I need to design a different circuit board, right? I cannot directly use this kit for my prototype projects. A different design is a must. Plus, "for evaluation only" is  written on the kit.  But inside "ti\controlSUITE\development_kits\LAUNCHXL-F28069M\HwDevPkg" folder, there is a pcb file which is only for Allegro Cadence (LAUNCHXL-F28069_B_1400922.brd) but I use Altium Designer. 

So I need an alternative Launchxl kit with a DAC output and altium designer pcb project. I don't want my project to be changed completely. I have heard that C2000 microprocessors are not so different from each other while programming. Is it true? Is there a better kit (covering my requests) and can you give me a model advice, please?

Thank you.
