Stellaris® 3.5-inch Landscape Intelligent Display Module RDK

The Luminary Micro Stellaris® 3.5-inch Landscape Intelligent Display Reference Design Kit (RDK-IDM-L35) offers a complete, open-tool graphical touch-screen user interface design solution for control, automation, and instrumentation applications. Based on the feature-rich Stellaris LM3S1958 microcontroller, the new intelligent display module featured in the kit (MDL-IDM-L35) combines a complete 3.5-inch QVGA landscape-oriented touch-screen user interface with several serial, digital, and analog connectivity options for easy implementation as a Human Machine Interface (HMI) touch display panel in an embedded control device. Software development for the RDK-IDM-L35 is simplified by using Luminary Micro's comprehensive StellarisWare® Peripheral Library and Graphics Library in conjunction with ARM development tools from ARM tools partners.
