includes the following I/O devices that you can use to develop prototype and production devices and
test the FT 5000 EVB example applications:
• 4 x 20 character LCD
• 4-way joystick with center push button
• 2 push-button inputs
• 2 LED outputs
• Light-level sensor
• Temperature sensor
The FT 5000 EVB Evaluation Board also includes an EIA-232/TIA-232 (formerly RS-232) and USB
interfaces that you can use to connect the board to your development computer and perform
application-level debugging. You can also use the RS-232 interface for development with the
ShortStack
®
Developer’s Kit. Note that only one interface can be used at a time.
Note: You cannot run ShortStack 2.1 Micro Servers on the FT 5000 EVB.
Each FT 5000 EVB also features a flash ICE header that supports the SPI and I 2 C interfaces for fast
downloads when programming the external non-volatile memory of the FT 5000 Smart Transceiver on
the board.
For more information on the FT 5000 EVB hardware, including detailed descriptions of its Neuron
