The ToolStick-LINDC kit contains the following items:
ToolStick LIN Daughter Card
A ToolStick daughter card requires a ToolStick Base Adapter to communicate with the PC. ToolStick Base Adapters
can be purchased at www.silabs.com/toolstick.
3. ToolStick Overview
The purpose of the ToolStick is to provide a development and demonstration platform for Silicon Laboratories
microcontrollers and to demonstrate the Silicon Laboratories software tools, including the Integrated Development
Environment (IDE).
The ToolStick development platform consists of two components: the ToolStick Base Adapter and a daughter card.
The ToolStick Base Adapter provides a USB debug interface and data communications path between a Windows
PC and a target microcontroller.
The target microcontroller and application circuitry are located on the daughter card. Some daughter cards, such
as the LIN Daughter Card, are used as general-purpose development platforms for the target microcontrollers and
some are used to demonstrate a specific feature or application.
The LIN Daughter card includes a power LED, a LIN transceiver, a connector block for the LIN signals, and a
prototyping area which provides access to all of the pins of the device. This prototyping area can be used to
connect additional hardware to the microcontroller and use the daughter card as a development platform.
Figure 3 shows the ToolStick LIN Daughter Card and identifies the various components.
