Linear Technology Analog Playground Module

for the Freescale Tower System

Quickly evaluate Linear Technology data converters and other mixed signal solutions with the Freescale Tower System. The easy-to-use plug-in analog module (TWR-ADCDAC-LTC) expands the capabilities of the Freescale Tower System. It’s a complete solution with a high precision analog peripheral module controllable by any Freescale Tower processor module with an SPI interface. The Quik Eval™ interface on the analog module allows connection of more than 130 Linear Technology evaluation boards with the Freescale Tower processor for a broad range of applications.
