The ColdFire® M523xEVB evaluation board is intended to provide a mechanism for easy evaluation of the NXP® MCF523x family of ColdFire microprocessors and to facilitate hardware and software development. The EVB can be used to test programs, tools, or circuits without having to develop a complete microprocessor system. The heart of the evaluation board is the MCF5235. All other MCF523x family members have a subset of the MCF5235 specification and can therefore be fully emulated using the MCF5235 device.
