The Nuvoton NuMaker-M463KG is an evaluation board for the NuMicro M463 series and is intended for development projects that require a compact, ready-to-use platform for evaluation, prototyping, and validation. The board consists of an M463KG target board and an on-board Nu-Link2-Me debugger and programmer. This makes the platform suitable for a fast start into embedded designs based on an Arm Cortex-M4F controller.
Development platform based on M463KGCAE
The target board is equipped with the NuMicro M463KGCAE. The underlying microcontroller is based on an Arm® Cortex®-M4F with DSP instruction set and single-precision FPU and is targeted at IoT gateway, industrial control, telecom, and data center applications. This makes the board suitable for development tasks where compute performance, connectivity, and flexible peripheral integration need to be combined on a compact evaluation platform.
Direct debugging and flexible evaluation
With the integrated Nu-Link2-Me, debugging and programming functions are available directly on the board. It supports on-chip debugging as well as online and offline ICP programming via SWD. The on-board debugger also supports virtual COM (VCOM) for debug messages on a PC. This simplifies project startup and reduces the need for external development infrastructure.
Arduino-compatible headers and extension connectors
For flexible development setups, the NuMaker-M463KG provides Arduino UNO compatible headers as well as additional extension connectors. This allows external modules, peripherals, and evaluation hardware to be connected quickly. Multiple power supply options further increase flexibility in lab and development environments.
Power-consumption monitoring for product-oriented validation
A key advantage of the platform is its integrated power-consumption monitoring capability. Via the Nuvoton-designed ammeter connector, power draw can be measured directly during operation. This is especially relevant for prototypes where both functional validation and energy behavior need to be assessed early in development.
