MC1323x Development Platform Overview and Description
1323x Development Hardware Reference Manual, Rev. 1.0
2-2 Freescale Semiconductor
Chapter 5, “1323x Remote Extender Motherboard” for detailed information. A small 8-switch
matrix, IR receiver, and USB interface provides means for communication to the MC1323x for:
— Simple keypad-only applications
— Connection to a PC
— Host connection such as for a remote control extender or remote control receiver
Whether the 1323x-MRB is used in a simple standalone application or in combination with another host
card, Freescale provides a complete software development environment called the Freescale BeeKit
Wireless Connectivity Toolkit (BeeKit). BeeKit is a comprehensive codebase of wireless networking
libraries, application templates, and sample applications. The BeeKit Graphical User Interface (GUI)
allows users to create, modify, and update various wireless networking implementations. A wide range of
software functionality is available to complement the 1323x-MRB and these are provided as codebases
within BeeKit.
2.2 Features
The MC1323x development platform is built around the concept of having a single daughter card
(1323x-MRB) that contains the MC1323x IC and all necessary I/O connections for use as a self-contained
module or for connection to an application motherboard. Figure 2-1 shows a simplified block diagram of
the more powerful Freescale configuration of the 1323x-MRB combined with the 1323x-RCM.
