The Freescale Freedom development platform is a small,
low-power, cost-effective evaluation and development
system for quick application prototyping and demonstration
of Kinetis MCUs and Xtrinsic sensors.
Each platform is scalable, leveraging various Xtrinsic
sensors. As a next-generation tool set, there is variation of
what can be demonstrated from basic discrete, raw data
up through more complex contextual awareness. The
FRDM-FXS-MULTI-B is the first of its kind offering 12-axis
sensing, wireless with Bluetooth, and the compatible

Android app, the Xtrinsic Sensor Fusion Toolbox.
Features:
• Cost Effective
• Small Size (Approximately 81 x 52 x 2 mm)
• Arduino™ R3 footprint-compatible with support for
sensor expansion boards
• Easy to access to MCU I/O pins
• Integrated open-standard serial and debug adapter
(OpenSDA) when using a Kinetis Freedom Board such
as the KL25Z or KL20.
Getting Started Out of the Box
You can utilize the FRDM-FXS-MULTI-B with any
Arduino MCU board. We recommend using either the
Kinetis KL25Z or KL20 MCU boards.
In order to power up the board and utilize the BlueTooth
module you must install the 3.3 V Power Jumper and
the BT Power Jumper. Once these jumpers are installed
you must slide the power switch to ON to power the
board via the battery. The location of these jumpers are
indicated with red circles in the image to the right. The
jumpers are included in the box inside the accessories
bag. The battery is charged when a powered USB cable

bag. The battery is charged when a powered USB cable
is connected to either USB slot on the Freescale
Freedom MCU board.
The Bluetooth friendly name is BlueRadiosXXXXXX
and requires no PIN. The Bluetooth module
documentation can be found at:
