Step 1: Power up the Board – EVB Power Supplies
• The S32K144-EVB evaluation board powers from a USB
or external 12V power supply. By default USB power is
enabled with J107 (check slide 5)
• Connect the USB cable to a PC using supplied USB
cable .
• Connect other end of USB cable (microUSB) to mini-B
port on FRDM-KEA at J7
• Allow the PC to automatically configure the USB drivers if
needed
• Debug is done using OpenSDA through J7

Step 1: Power up the Board – Is it powered on correctly?
• When powered through USB, LEDs D2 and D3 should light green
• Once the board is recognized, it should appear as a mass storage
device in your PC with the name EVB-S32K144.

Step 1: Power up the Board – Is it powered on correctly?
• Board is preloaded with a software, in
which the red, blue and green leds will
toggle at different rates.

Power up the EVB board
Powers the S32K144EVB evaluation board from a
USB. By default, the USB power is enabled by
J107 jumper (2-3 closed).
Connect the USB cable to a PC and connect micro
USB connector of the USB cable to micro-B port J7
on the S32K144EVB.
Allow the PC to automatically configure the USB
drivers if needed.
When EVB is powered from USB, LEDs D2 and D3
should light green.
The EVB board is preloaded with a software
toggling the RGB LED colours periodically between
RED-GREEN-BLUE.
