2.3 Hardware Connections Overview

Figure 3-2 shows the major blocks of MCF8329EVM. The MCF8329EVM is designed for an input supply from 4.5 V to 60 V at 30 A max. The MCF8329EVM includes a power stage with six external N-channel power MOSFETs (part number: CSD18536KTTT) and passive components. The MCF8329EVM also includes a 1 mΩ current sense shunt resistor and an external N-channel MOSFET controlled by GCTRL to generate VREG. For interfacing with the GUI, the MCF8329EVM has an onboard FTDI chip and MSP430.
