Revision History
1 TWR-MCF51QM and TWR-MCF51QM-KIT Overview
The TWR-MCF51QM is a Tower Controller Module compatible with the Freescale Tower System. It can
function as a stand-alone, low-cost platform for the evaluation of the ColdFire+ MCF51QU, MCF51QH,
MCF51QF, and MCF51QM microcontroller (MCU) devices. The TWR-MCF51QM features the
MCF51QM, a ColdFire+ 32-bit microcontroller built on the Version 1 (V1) ColdFire® core and enabled
by innovative 90nm thin film storage (TFS) flash process technology with FlexMemory. The MCF51Qx
families offer a rich combination of additive peripherals including high-precision analog, hardware
encryption, an innovative touch sensing interface (TSI), and more.
The TWR-MCF51QM is available as a stand-alone product or as a kit (TWR-MCF51QM-KIT) with the
Tower Elevator Modules (TWR-ELEV) and the Tower Prototyping Module (TWR-PROTO). The TWRMCF51QM can also be combined with other Freescale Tower peripheral modules to create
development platforms for a wide variety of applications. Figure 1 provides an overview of the
Freescale Tower System.

2 Hardware Description
The TWR-MCF51QM is a Tower Controller Module featuring the MCF51QM128—a ColdFire+ based
microcontroller with high-precision analog in a 64 LQFP package. It is intended for use in the Freescale
Tower System but can operate stand-alone. An on-board debug circuit, OSBDM, provides a BDM
interface and a power supply input through a single USB mini-AB connector. Figure 3 shows a block
diagram of the TWR-MCF51QM. The following sections describe the hardware in more detail.
