Isolated/Standalone – Used to protect the host PC while debugging the application, which may present
dangerous voltages to a PC or when the user wants to run a standalone application with a single
supply. Power for the entire system (both LaunchPad and LED BoosterPack) is supplied from the 12 V
AC/DC wall adapter. The USB can be optionally connected if the user wants to debug the application;
in this case, power for the emulator is supplied via USB. This mode provides the user with 2500 Vrms
of isolation to protect the computer in the event that dangerous transient voltages are present on the
board.

PC GUI Demo
The LED BoosterPack experimenter’s kit comes with a GUI that provides a convenient way to evaluate the
functionality of this kit and the F28027 device without having to learn and configure the underlying project
software. The interactive interface using sliders, buttons, and textboxes allows LED lighting with the
C2000 device to be demonstrated quickly and easily.
