TI announces a new Launchpad: The Tiva C Series TM4C123G LaunchPad Evaluation Kit.

Now is on pre-order status with a 10-12 weeks delivery time.

This is a evaluation platform for ARM® Cortex™-M4F-based microcontrollers featuring the newest  TM4C123GH6PM with a USB 2.0 device interface and hibernation module.

Some TM4C123GH6PM Specifications:

  • 32-bit ARM® Cortex™-M4 80-MHz processor core with System Timer (SysTick)
  • integrated Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC)
  • Wake-Up Interrupt Controller (WIC) with clock gating
  • Thumb-2 instruction set
  • On-chip memory, featuring 256 KB single-cycle Flash up to 40 MHz, 32 KB single-cycle SRAM;
  • internal ROM loaded with TivaWare™ for C Series software; 2KB EEPROM
  • 2 CAN modules
  • USB controller with USB 2.0 full-speed (12 Mbps) and low-speed (1.5 Mbps) operation, 32 endpoints
  • USB OTG/Host/Device mode
  • 8 UARTs with IrDA, 9-bit, and ISO 7816 support
  • four Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI) modules, supporting operation for Freescale SPI, MICROWIRE, or Texas Instruments synchronous serial interfaces;
  • 4 I2C modules
  • 2 12-bit ADCs
  • Advanced motion control, featuring: 8 PWM generator blocks, each with one 16-bit counter, 2 PWM comparators, a PWM signal generator, a dead-band generator, and an interrupt/ADC-trigger selector; 2 PWM fault inputs to promote low-latency shutdown; 2 Quadrature Encoder Interface (QEI) modules
  • Timers: 2 ARM FiRM-compliant watchdog timers; six 32-bit general-purpose timers (up to twelve 16-bit); six wide 64-bit general-purpose timers (up to twelve 32-bit); 12 16/32-bit and 12 32/64-bit Capture Compare PWM (CCP) pins
  • Up to 43 GPIOs (depending on configuration), with programmable control for GPIO interrupts and pad configuration, and highly flexible pin muxing
  • Lower-power battery-backed Hibernation module with Real-Time Clock
