All-in-One GD-xD-W515-EVAL Board-Consumer Electronics-GigaDevice Semiconductor Inc.

GD-xD-W515-EVAL Board Overview

GigaDevice releases the new xD (Multi-Dimension) series evaluation platform, which leverages various GigaDevice products that enable customers to evaluate multiple hardware and software combinations all within one comprehensive kit.

The GD-xD-W515-EVAL Board is the first evaluation kit in the xD series. Through the integration of diverse GigaDevice's MCU, Flash, PMU and Sensor products, this EVAL board delivers tailored solutions to customers across a spectrum of applications, including smart home HMI, smart door lock, and portable device control.

The EVAL board

consists of a mainboard, fingerprint board and LCD board.
is powered by battery or Mini-USB interface of GD-Link.
can realize USB voltage monitoring, battery charging, voltage and power monitoring, flexible switching power supply, touch and fingerprint control, multi-dimensional information indication and applications support.
