Bill of Materials
You may order your boards from either the Worldwide or regional suppliers listed in the red buttons to the left. Where possible shopping carts are provided, where not possible links to regional distributors are provided. For the simplest experience we recommend the pre-populated shopping carts on the Worldwide page. Students will need both a Microcontroller board and a kit of extra electronics parts. For a full overview please see the Kit overview page
Microcontroller board
Every student will need either a Stellaris LaunchPad or a Tiva LaunchPad. All the projects we will develop in this course will run on either of these microcontroller boards. There are many places you can go to get the board. For a full list of sources from which you can get the board go to www.octopart.com and search for either EK-LM4F120XL or EK-TM4C123GXL. As of December 2013, buying the EK-TM4C123GXL from the TI estore is the least expensive option after shipping.
Extra electronics
You can order the extra electronic parts for this class either from the Worldwide page or from a local distributor in the red buttons to the left. For an overview of what is contained in the kit of extra electronics parts please see the Kit overview page.
