FRDM-MCXA156 is a compact and scalable development board for rapid prototyping with either the MCX A144, or MCX A154, ideal for connected control, smart sensing, and industrial interface designs. It provides industry-standard headers for easy access to the MCU’s I/Os, integrated open-standard serial interfaces, and an on-board MCU-Link debugger. Designed to accelerate development of smart sensing, motor control, and industrial HMI applications, it includes FS USB, 16-bit ADC, CAN-FD, I3C and FlexIO/LCD expansion headers, plus an on-board I3C/I²C temperature sensor, to simplify evaluation, expansion, and application development. Additional tools such as the expansion board hub (EBH) for add-on boards and the application code hub (ACH) for software examples are available through the MCUXpresso Developer Experience.
