Flexis™ JM Badge Board Design Challenge: Can Your Badge Do This?


Can Your Badge Do This?

Welcome!


It's amazing what you can do when you embed a MCF51JM128 ColdFire® USB MCU, a MMA7260QT 3-axis accelerometer, a MC34673Li-ion battery charger IC, a MPR084 capacitive touch sensor along with an LED screen into an event ID badge. Add a little ingenuity and programming, and you can have a multifunctional badge… even a toy.


The Flexis JM Badge Board doubles as an event badge for the Freescale Technology Forums around the world and provides design engineers with a low cost development board to develop a unique application.


Make sure to enter your application in the Flexis JM Badge Board Design Challenge, which rewards the most innovative JM Badge Board applications. See the Design Challenge sections of this website for further detail.
