Introduction
The TRK-S12ZVL features the S12ZVL, an automotive 16-bit MCU family. This integrates
on the same die a S12Z CPU, a LINPHY interface, a 5 volts internal LDO (with an option to
control an external ballast transistor) which operates at vehicle battery level and a high
voltage input pin. The S12ZVL family includes error correction code (ECC) on program flash,
EEPROM as well as SRAM memory, a fast 10 bits ATD converter and a frequency
modulated phase locked loop (PLL) that improves the EMC performance.
This MCU family is targeted for smart sensor slave LIN node applications as well as
applications requiring to drive RGB LEDs. This device fulfils ISO26262 ASIL A requirements.
This guide will show how to quickly connect the board to a host PC and execute a
demonstration application preloaded in to the flash memory. Default jumper positions of
the TRK-S12ZVL board.

S12ZVL Overview
The MC9S12ZVL-Family is an automotive 16-bit microcontroller family using the 180nm
NVM + UHV technology that offers the capability to integrate 40V analog components. This
family reuses many features from the existing S12 portfolio. The particular differentiating
features of this family are the enhanced S12Z core and the integration of “high-voltage”
analog modules, including the voltage regulator (VREG) and a Local Interconnect Network
(LIN) physical layer.
The MC9S12ZVL-Family includes error correction code (ECC) on RAM, FLASH and
EEPROM for diagnostic or data storage, a fast analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and a
frequency modulated phase locked loop (IPLL) that improves the EMC performance.
The MC9S12ZVL-Family delivers an optimized solution with the integration of several key
system components into a single device, optimizing system architecture and achieving
significant space savings. The MC9S12ZVL-Family delivers all the advantages and
efficiencies of a 16-bit MCU while retaining the low cost, power consumption, EMC, and
code-size efficiency advantages currently enjoyed by users of existing S12 families. The
MC9S12ZVL-Family is available in 48-pin, 32-pin LQFP and 32-pin QFN-EP. In addition
to the I/O ports available in each module, further I/O ports are available with interrupt
capability allowing wake-up from stop or wait modes.

S12ZVL Family
The MC9S12ZVL-Family is targeted at generic automotive applications requiring LIN
connectivity. Typical examples of these applications include switches, actuators (e.g.,
window lift and door lock modules); body control electronics for occupant comfort (e.g.,
door, steering wheel, seat and mirror modules); and motors and sensors (e.g., in climate
control, lighting, rain sensors, smart wipers, intelligent alternators and switch panels).

2No service pack is need-
ed since CW 10.5 already
supports the S12ZVL.

Install PE Micro OSBDM
V11 drivers from:
http://www.pemicro.com/support/down-
load_processor.cfm?type=3.
Look for: P&E Hardware Interface Drivers,
Version 11 (Win XP/Vista/7/8).
These drivers allow using the OSBDM
firmware 31.21 (already flashed in the
JM60) as a USB to serial bridge. (Instead
of virtual serial port use the COM serial
port for the OSBDM)
