Introduction
The flagship microcontroller of the Freescale S12 family is the 9S12D. It is a full-featured microcontroller, with Flash, EEPROM, and RAM memories, SCI, SPI, CAN, and IIC communications subsystems, and multi-channel analog-to-digital conversion capability. Adapt9S12D is a modular implementation that brings these features within easy reach of engineers, educators, and hobbyists. The flexible design of the entire "Adapt" series of microcontroller products supports all aspects of training, evaluation, development, prototyping, and even volume production.
This manual provides basic setup and operation instructions for the Technological Arts Adapt9S12D Microcontroller Module. Included are both the hardware and software information needed to get the board working with a variety of programming languages and development tools. Details of each of the module variations are covered.
