Seoul, July 24, 2014 – Microchip Technology (Korea Representative: Byung-Don Han), a global leader in microcontrollers, analog semiconductors, and flash-IP solutions, announced the launch of MOST® ToGo Reference Designs, which enable developers to easily learn and implement proven MOST technology into automotive infotainment systems.

The newly released MOST ToGo enables developers to focus on application software development using Microchip's extensive experience without having to master the vast MOST specifications. Two reference designs include three MOST network-compatible hardware nodes, complete with schematics, code, and functional guides. This provides everything needed for education, learning, or development, ranging from concepts to implementation and testing for designing a complete MOST system. By using these kits as complete blueprints for critical circuits, you can quickly create demos and significantly reduce overall development and testing time.

Both newly released kits provide a MOST technology hardware reference design and a fully implemented software stack, helping developers pass compliance tests on the first try. Additionally, the boards include daughter card connectors, allowing for the addition of expansion boards for other audio, video, wireless, or functionalities.

"MOST technology is a robust automotive infotainment network solution with proven value," said Dan Termer, Vice President of Microchip’s Automotive Information Systems division. "With MOST ToGo, Microchip’s customers can launch MOST designs faster than ever before."
