What is a LaunchPad™ development kit?

Get started with microcontroller (MCU) LaunchPad development kits from Texas Instruments. Choose from a variety of low-cost kits and BoosterPack plug-in modules. Scalable software tools provide multiple points of entry for programming your LaunchPad development kit.

Our development kits come with:
 
  1. Featured Texas Instruments microcontroller
  2. USB connector
  3. On-board debugger
  4. User switches
  5. User LEDs
  6. On-board connectivity (if applicable) Many kits support wired or wireless connectivity
  7. Expandability for BoosterPack plug-in moduel (Each kit is supported by plug-in modules for easy system expandability)
  8. Arm programming connector 
  9. EnergyTrace, if applicable (Many TI LaunchPad development kits let you easily measure energy consumption of designs)
