Project template project for a specific DSC part

For device with specific part number, the easiest way to set up customer own project based on MCUXpresso DSC SDK peripheral driver, is the project template. The MCUXpresso Config Tool generates the project template .

The project template project provides basic MCUXpresso DSC SDK software framework, including startup, linker file, device header file, debug setting, peripheral driver, FreeMASTER, and so on.

MCUXpresso Config Tool support

Steps to generate the project template project for specific derivative part number by MCUXpresso Config Tool:

  1. Download the specific device SDK package and unzip it.

    Note: Since the project template requires FreeMASTER, select the middleware FreeMASTER in the SDK builder when downloading.

  2. Use MCUXpresso Config Tool, See the tool version in the Release Notes document. To create a project template project, as shown in Figure 1.

  1. Import the generated template project into CodeWarrior IDE and start the development. By now, a config tool file (extension.mex) with the same project name as shown in Figure 1 is also generated in the project folder. This config tool file achieves easy configurations for pins, clocks, and peripherals.

Project name

The default-created project template by Config Tool is project_template_{part_number}. For modification, modify the default words in Project name textbox, as shown in Figure 1.

Peripheral driver

All peripheral drivers files are included in the generated project template project. They are same as the peripheral drivers within SDK package.

If some drivers are not used or required, users may delete them in CodeWarrior, or delete them in the project_template_MC56F82xxx/drivers folder.
