FRDM-KW40Z Demo application includes the following interfaces:

  • LED Control
  • Input Report (GPIO and TSI)
  • Buzzer Control
  • Internal Temperature Sensor
  • Potentiometer (ADC)
  • Accelerometer
  • e-Compass
  • Remote Controller

Application software is divided in three main sections. The KSDK layer that comprises all the low level drivers for the MCU module. The Connectivity Software that includes the full connectivity stack to handle BLE connections. And the application layer that includes all the functions that handle the sensors and actuators.
