Chapter 1 General Information
1.1 Description
The M9328MX21ADSE helps you develop applications for the i.MX21 MCU.
The ADS has 19 connectors and sockets that support application software, target board debugging, and
optional circuit cards. A separate LCD display panel and a separate keypad are supplied with the ADS.
When you connect the LCD panel and keypad to the ADS Base board, they align with each other.
