Freescale Kinetis FRDM-KL27Z
============================

.. contents::

Hardware
--------

Platform :ref:`platform_freescalekinetis`: Freescale Kinetis Microcontrollers is family of multiple hardware- and software-compatible ARM Cortex-M0+, Cortex-M4 and Cortex-M7-based MCU series. Kinetis MCUs offer exceptional low-power performance, scalability and feature integration.

.. list-table::

  * - **Microcontroller**
    - MKL27Z64VLH4
  * - **Frequency**
    - 48MHz
  * - **Flash**
    - 64KB
  * - **RAM**
    - 16KB
  * - **Vendor**
    - `Freescale <https://os.mbed.com/platforms/FRDM-KL27Z/?utm_source=platformio.org&utm_medium=docs>`__


Configuration
-------------

Please use ``frdm_kl27z`` ID for :ref:`projectconf_env_board` option in :ref:`projectconf`:

.. code-block:: ini

  [env:frdm_kl27z]
  platform = freescalekinetis
  board = frdm_kl27z

You can override default Freescale Kinetis FRDM-KL27Z settings per build environment using
``board_***`` option, where ``***`` is a JSON object path from
board manifest `frdm_kl27z.json <https://github.com/platformio/platform-freescalekinetis/blob/master/boards/frdm_kl27z.json>`_. For example,
``board_build.mcu``, ``board_build.f_cpu``, etc.

.. code-block:: ini

  [env:frdm_kl27z]
  platform = freescalekinetis
  board = frdm_kl27z

  ; change microcontroller
  board_build.mcu = mkl27z64vlh4

  ; change MCU frequency
  board_build.f_cpu = 48000000L


Uploading
---------
Freescale Kinetis FRDM-KL27Z supports the following uploading protocols:

* ``blackmagic``
* ``cmsis-dap``
* ``jlink``
* ``mbed``

Default protocol is ``mbed``

You can change upload protocol using :ref:`projectconf_upload_protocol` option:

.. code-block:: ini

  [env:frdm_kl27z]
  platform = freescalekinetis
  board = frdm_kl27z

  upload_protocol = mbed

Debugging
---------

:ref:`piodebug` - "1-click" solution for debugging with a zero configuration.

.. warning::
    You will need to install debug tool drivers depending on your system.
    Please click on compatible debug tool below for the further
    instructions and configuration information.

You can switch between debugging :ref:`debugging_tools` using
:ref:`projectconf_debug_tool` option in :ref:`projectconf`.

Freescale Kinetis FRDM-KL27Z has on-board debug probe and **IS READY** for debugging. You don't need to use/buy external debug probe.
