1 TWR-VF65GS10 Overview
The TWR-VF65GS10 is a development board featuring the heterogeneous dual core Vybrid VF6xx family. It
consists of a 500MHz 32-bit ARM® Cortex™-A5 + 167MHz ARM® Cortex™-M4 MPU that operates across the
full -40C to 85C temperature range.
The TWR-VF65GS10 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 Vybrid family of devices. The TWRVF65GS10 features a Vybrid VF6xx family MPU based on ARM® Cortex™-A5 and ARM® Cortex™-M4
architecture with dual TFT display, dual USB OTG with built in HS/FS/LS PHY, dual 10/100 Ethernet with L2
switch, and advanced security.
The TWR-VF65GS10 is available as a stand-alone product, or can be obtained as part of a kit (TWRVF65GS10-KIT, TWR-VF65GS10-DS5, TWR-VF65GS10-PRO). The kit includes the Tower Elevator Modules
(TWR-ELEV), the Tower Serial Module (TWR-SER) or Tower Serial2 Module (TWR-SER2), and/or Tower LCD
Display (TWR-LCD-RGB). The TWR-VF65GS10 can also be combined with other Freescale Tower peripheral
modules to create development platforms for a wide variety of applications. Please visit
