The NXP analog product development boards provide an easy-to-use platform for evaluating NXP products. The boards support a range of analog, mixed-signal and power solutions. They incorporate monolithic integrated circuits and system-in-package devices that use proven high-volume technology. NXP products offer longer battery life, a smaller form factor, reduced component counts, lower cost, and improved performance in powering state-of-the-art systems.
This page will guide you through the process of setting up and using the KITFS23BUCKEVM board.

This section gives guidance on how to set up and run KITFS23BUCKEVM evaluation board and GUI.
The procedure for setting up KITFS23BUCKEVM board is as follows:
J6
(Phoenix connector - 3.81 mm). The power supply should be set to a nominal value of 14.0 V. Or connect the power supply to J2
(Jack connector) via a 14.0 V battery
Note: When connecting loads to the boards, check that the J37
jumper is in position J37-1-2
to avoid drawing current from the USB line. Place jumper in position J37-1-2
to supply 5.0 V from onboard LDO connected to VIN. Place jumper in position J37-2-3
to supply 5.0 V from the USB line.
SW1
to position SW1-3
if the power supply is connected to J6
. Or place SW1
to position SW1-1
if the power supply is connected to J2

The procedure for connecting the KITFS23BUCKEVM to the GUI is as follows:
State Disconnected: USB cable plugged in, communication not established yet
State Not Detected: USB cable not plugged in
State Connected: USB cable plugged in, communication established
Note: If the Start button does not light on and stays grey, the FTDI driver might be missing. To confirm this, access to the Windows Device Manager and look for FT230X Basic UART device.
Figure 1. Add FTDI driver from Windows Device Manager
Note: To solve this issue, look for the FTDI USB Serial Port driver corresponding to your PC and install it. For Dell computers, the package can be downloaded at this address
