Evaluation board NXHX 90-JTAG

Product type
Development board for the netX 90 network controller (Hilscher NXHX 90-JTAG). Part number: 7833.000.

Highlights

• Development system with extensive peripheral functions
• Integrated JTAG debug interface
• Universal evaluation board for multiple industrial networks
• Delivered with Eclipse-based netX Studio development environment

Overview
The NXHX 90-JTAG is a software development board built around the netX 90 communication controller with a 32-bit ARM core. It enables joint execution of network protocol stacks and application software under a Real-Time Operating System (RTOS). The board provides universal hardware to evaluate hardware and software stacks for price-sensitive industrial applications.

The board includes an integrated debug interface (JTAG) and is supplied with netX Studio — an Eclipse-based toolset featuring a GCC toolchain, python-based WAF build scripts, a flasher and OpenOCD support. Developers can load and run applications with Hilscher protocol stacks and combine them with the licence-free Linux board support package for extended evaluation.
