The STK594 board is a top module designed to add AT94K FPSLIC™ support to the STK500 development board. With this board the STK500 is extended to support all cur- rent AT94K FPSLIC devices in a single development environment.

The STK594 includes connectors, jumpers and hardware allowing full utilization of the new features of the FPSLIC family, see Figure 1-1.

This user guide acts as a general getting started guide as well as a complete technical reference for advanced users.

In addition to adding support for new devices, it also adds new support for peripherals previously not supported by the STK500. An additional RS-232 port and a Two-Wire Serial Interface are among the new features.
