CHAPTER 1
Stellaris® LM3S9D90 Evaluation Kit Overview
Texas Instruments' Stellaris® LM3S9D90 Evaluation Board Kit (EK-LM3S9D90) is a low-cost
platform for evaluation of the LM3S9D90 microcontroller. The kit includes two boards, the
EK-LM3S9D90 evaluation board, and the In-Circuit Debug Interface (BD-ICDI) board.
The EK-LM3S9D90 board includes the LM3S9D90 ARM® Cortex™-M3 Microcontroller, a 10/100
Mbit Ethernet port, a full-speed USB-OTG port, connectors for inteface to the BD- ICDI boar d, and
oversized pads for easy connection to the microcontroller GPIO ports.
The BD-ICDI board is a USB full-speed JTAG/SWD debugger board. It includes a USB miniB
connector for connection to a USB PC port, and two shrouded header connectors for connectio n to
the EK-LM3S9D90 board.
Development of software for the EK-LM3S9D90 is simplified by using Texas Instruments’
comprehensive St ellarisW are® peripheral dr iver library and ARM development too ls from our tools
partners. The Stellaris® LM3S9D90 Evaluation Board Kit includes the two boards described, a
documentation CD, and cables. All design files are provided on the EK-LM3S9D90 CD.

Stellaris® LM3S9D90 Evaluation Kit Overview
Kit Contents
The EK-LM3S9D90 evaluation kit comes with the following:
EK-LM3S9D90 evaluation board
In-Circuit Debug Interface (BD-ICDI) board
– Connects to USB port on PC and to 10-pin, fine-pitch ARM JTAG connector on the
EK-LM3S9D90 evaluation board
– Secondary 8-pin Power/UART connector provides power and virtual comm-port capability
to the EK-LM3S9D90 evaluation board.
Cables

– USB-OTG to USB-A cable
– 10-pin ribbon cable for JTAG/SWD connection
– 8-pin ribbon cable for Power/UART connection
CD containing:
– A supported version of one of the following (including a toolchain-specific Quickstart
guide):
• Keil™ RealView® Microcontroller Development Kit (MDK-ARM)
• IAR Embedded Workbench
• Sourcery CodeBench development tools
• Code Red Technologies development tools
• Texas Instruments’ Code Composer Studio™ IDE
– Complete documentation

– Stellaris® Firmwa re Development Package with example source code
Using the EK-LM3S9D90
The recommended steps for using the EK-LM3S9D90 evaluation kit are:
1. Follow the Quickstart guide included in the kit. The Quickstart guide will help get the
EK-LM3S9D90 Evaluation Board up and running in minutes.
2. Use your preferred ARM tool-chain an d the Stellari s Peri ph e ral Driv er Li bra r y to
develop an application. Software applications are loaded using the BD-ICDI board. See
Chapter 3, “Software Development,” for the programming procedure. The StellarisWare
Peripheral Driver Library Software Reference Manual contains specific information on
software structure and function.
3. Customize and integrate the hardware to suit an end applicatio n. This user's manual is an
important reference for understanding circuit operation and completing hardware modification.
Features
The EK-LM3S9D90 evaluation kit provides the following features:
