Product details
Overview
FRDMKL27-B3115 from NXP is a sensor toolbox demonstration kit integrating the FXPQ3115BVT1 high-precision biocompatible pressure sensor with the NXP Freedom FRDM-KL27Z development board. It supports I²C communication (I2C_SDA0/I2C_SCL0 and I2C_SDA1/I2C_SCL1), features 8 through-hole pins and 7 test points, and targets rapid prototyping of medical-grade pressure sensing applications.
For engineers reviewing the FRDMKL27-B3115 datasheet, FRDMKL27-B3115 pinout, FRDMKL27-B3115 application, or FRDMKL27-B3115 equivalent, this kit delivers validated hardware-software integration for biocompatible pressure measurement, including mbed-compatible firmware, Sensor Toolbox software support, and direct interface to the KL27Z MCU's dual I²C peripherals.
Technical Context
The FRDMKL27-B3115 combines the FXPQ3115BVT1 LGA-packaged pressure sensor (5 mm × 3 mm × 1.1 mm, biocompatible, high-precision) with the FRDM-KL27Z base board, which hosts an ARM Cortex-M0+ KL27Z microcontroller. It leverages two independent I²C interfaces (I2C0 and I2C1) for sensor communication and system expansion.
Hardware design includes dedicated interrupt lines (INT_1, INT_2), dual VDD supply points (pins 2 and 4), GND connections at pins 6 and 7, and accessible test points for signal probing. The kit is preconfigured for out-of-box evaluation using NXP's Sensor Toolbox software and mbed OS toolchain.

FAQ
What is the FRDMKL27-B3115 used for?
The FRDMKL27-B3115 is a demonstration kit for evaluating the FXPQ3115BVT1 biocompatible pressure sensor with the FRDM-KL27Z MCU board. It enables rapid validation of pressure-sensing algorithms, I²C interface timing, and Sensor Toolbox software integration-without custom PCB design. Engineers use the FRDMKL27-B3115 to prototype medical-grade pressure measurement systems before committing to production hardware.
Does the FRDMKL27-B3115 include the FXPQ3115BVT1 sensor?
Yes, the FRDMKL27-B3115 includes the FXPQ3115BVT1 high-precision biocompatible pressure sensor pre-mounted on the board. This sensor uses an 8-pin LGA package (5 mm × 3 mm × 1.1 mm) and communicates via I²C. The FRDMKL27-B3115 integrates it directly with the KL27Z MCU, eliminating manual sensor interfacing during initial evaluation.
How do I connect the FRDMKL27-B3115 to a PC?
Connect the FRDMKL27-B3115 to a PC using the included USB cable plugged into the SDA port on the board. Install the mbed Windows serial port driver from development.mbed.org/handbook/Windows-serial-configuration, then launch NXP's Sensor Toolbox software from nxp.com/sensortoolbox. The FRDMKL27-B3115 enumerates as a virtual COM port and appears automatically in the software interface.
What software tools support the FRDMKL27-B3115?
The FRDMKL27-B3115 is supported by NXP's Sensor Toolbox desktop application and the mbed OS development environment. Sensor Toolbox provides real-time pressure visualization, calibration utilities, and export of raw sensor data. The FRDMKL27-B3115 firmware is preloaded and compatible with mbed's online compiler and offline toolchains for custom firmware development.
Are test points and through-hole pins documented for the FRDMKL27-B3115?
Yes, the FRDMKL27-B3115 includes 7 labeled test points for probing I²C signals, interrupts, and power rails, plus 8 through-hole pins for mechanical mounting and optional signal routing. Pin assignments-including I2C_SDA0 (pin 9), I2C_SCL0 (pin 10), INT_1 (pin 6), and VDD (pins 2 and 4)-are defined in the official Quick Reference document (FRDMKL27-B3115_QRC REV 0).
