Board Support interface is used by the example project.

Board Support interface is used when the related hardware is available on the evaluation board.

Board Support interface is not used by the example project.

The Board Support interfaces are board-specific and typically part of the BSP section in a Software Pack. To support a new evaluation board, it is sufficient to create the easy-to-implement Board Support interfaces.

Many evaluation boards are already supported and are listed on . Once the Software Pack for an evaluation board is installed, the available Board Support interfaces can be selected in the Run-Time Environment. These interfaces can also be used by user applications or other example projects.
