1.  Relevant Devices

The C8051F530A Development Kit is intended as a development platform for the microcontrollers in the
C8051F52xA-53xA MCU family. The members of this MCU family are C8051F520A, C8051F521A, C8051F523A,
C8051F524A, C8051F526A, C8051F527A, C8051F530A, C8051F531A, C8051F533A, C8051F534A,
C8051F536A, and C8051F537A.

Notes:

„

The target board included in this kit is provided with two pre-soldered C8051F530A-IT MCUs (TSSOP-20 

package).

„

Code developed on the C8051F530A can be easily ported to the other members of this MCU family.

„

Refer to the C8051F52x/52xA/53x/53xA data sheet for the differences between the members of this MCU 

family.

2.  Kit Contents

The C8051F530A Development Kit contains the following items:

• C8051F530A Target Board
• C8051Fxxx Development Kit Quick-Start Guide
• Silicon Laboratories IDE and Product Information CD-ROM. CD content includes:

• Silicon Laboratories Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
• Keil 8051 Development Tools (macro assembler, linker, evaluation C compiler)
• Source code examples and register definition files
• Documentation
• C8051F52xA-53xA Development Kit User’s Guide (this document)

• Optional Third Party Tools CD
• AC to DC Power Adapter
• USB Debug Adapter (USB to Debug Interface)
• USB Cable

The development kit target board contains two C8051530A microcontrollers that can communicate through a LIN
network. One of the C8051F530A (U2) can also be connected to a CP2102 USB to UART bridge and directly
connected to two analog signals and a Voltage Reference Signal Input.
The kit includes one USB Debug Adapter. Additionally, a second USB Debug Adapter and a second instance of the
Silicon Labs IDE can be used to communicate with both microcontrollers on the board at the same time using only
one PC.
