STMicroelectronics AEKD-AFL001 AutoDevKit Adaptive Front Lighting Kit

STMicroelectronics AEKD-AFL001 AutoDevKit Adaptive Front Lighting Kit represents the complete logic and driving hardware for an adaptive front lighting system for prototyping, testing, and development purposes. The kit includes several AutoDevKit boards designed for motor vehicle application development featuring ST automotive-grade components.

The set consists of two stepper motor control boards, a four-channel LED driver board, a control board with MCU, a connector board with a FAN switchboard, and another connector board for wiring configuration. The STSW-AFL001 Adaptive Front Lighting System Firmware runs on the control board automotive-grade SPC5 Chorus MCU. This allows independent control of all the function boards and their respective loads. The package also offers sample applications to help users familiarize themselves with the code more quickly.

The fully compatible AEKD-AFLLIGHT1 Demo Motor Vehicle Front Lighting Assembly with LED lights, stepper motors, and fan provides a complete adaptive front lighting tool for application and solution development purposes.
