The demo board available for the MC9RS08KA8 has an integrated BDM (background debug mode) pod, eliminating the need for a separate BDM pod. This low-cost demo board provides a DIP socket so that multiple parts can be pulled in or out for customer integrations to their system. The board is very similar to the KA2 demo board, therefore the experience that customers have with the KA2 demo board will be applicable to this demo board also. Please see the DigiKey Product Training Module which discusses the demo board in more detail.
