Popular Freescale Freedom FRDM-K64F board supports ARM mbed
software, tools and cloud services for rapid creation of IoT
products spanning from end-node to cloud
(ARM TechCon 2015) -– Designed in collaboration with ARM® mbed™,
Freescale Semiconductor’s (NYSE: FSL) popular FRDM-K64F board is
available now with comprehensive support for ARM mbed IoT Device
Platform technologies, including ARM’s new mbed OS operating
system.
Recognized earlier this year as one of the industry’s first
development boards to fully support mbed, Freescale’s FRDM-K64F
board enables end-to-end mbed solutions and works with a full
complement of mbed technologies including the mbed OS, mbed Client,
the mbed Device Connector service and associated mbed tools.
Freescale’s support for the new mbed OS reinforces Freescale’s
proven track record of collaboration with ARM on mbed enablement,
which includes the FRDM-K64F board serving as the processing
platform for two of the first “IoT end device-to-cloud” solutions
for mbed – the ARM mbed IoT Starter Kit for IBM® IoT Foundation and
ARM’s mbed solution for Microsoft Azure IoT Suite. Freescale also
recently delivered its advanced FNET TCP/IP software stack to the
mbed ecosystem. This software will
become the foundation of the mbed TCP/IP stack and serve as the
connectivity heart of the ARM mbed OS architecture.
“ARM mbed IoT Device Platform fills a critical gap by providing
a comprehensive, standards-based platform for microcontrollers,”
said Geoff Lees, senior vice president and general manager of
Freescale’s MCU Group. “mbed helps our customers speed
time-to-market with off-the-shelf technologies that support key IoT
requirements such as connectivity and robust security.”
“Freescale’s FRDM-K64F has been a valuable test platform during
the internal development prototyping and validating of mbed OS with
the other mbed IoT Device Platform capabilities,” said Zach Shelby,
vice president of marketing, IoT business, ARM. “The feedback we
have received from mbed developers implementing designs with
Freescale’s FRDM platform has been strong. We expect to see more
next generation designs based on the FRDM-K64F given its
applicability to a variety of IoT applications.”
Easily add wireless functionality to the Freescale Freedom
FRDM-K64F board
The Freescale Freedom FRDM-CR20A development board for the
MCR20A 2.4 GHz wireless transceiver connects with the mbed Enabled™
Freescale FRDM-K64F, forming an mbed supported solution. The
FRDM-CR20A board provides a low-power 802.15.4 radio, and when
combined with the FRDM-K64F board, creates the basis for a fully
functional, wireless, cloud-connected IoT platform, further
enabling new technologies including Thread low-power mesh wireless
networks.
“Zebra Technologies has selected the Freescale FRDM-K64F as one
of the first IoT reference examples to work with Zatar, our mbed
Enabled cloud service for IoT, due to its widespread support in the
ARM mbed ecosystem,” said Thomas Kurian, senior director of New
Growth Platforms at Zebra. “We look forward to collaborating with
Freescale to help customers take advantage of chip-to-cloud
reference designs for IoT.”
