===== STKa117xL Overview =====
The STKa117xL provides a powerful evaluation and prototyping platform using i.MX RT1170 MCU family from NXP.
The BSP is based on NXP’s MCUXpresso SDK, the build host setup instructions and BSP sources are provided via GitHub.\\
\\
Please see the MBa117xL.SW.MCU.BSP.0001 repository for further instructions.\\
\\
A list of supported example applications is available in the BSP repository.\\

\\
The settings on the right have to be set in the terminal program of your choice in order to be able to use the the examples correctly. \\ We suggest **TeraTerm**. \\
\\
For **TeraTerm**, click **Setup -> Serial Port** \\
\\ 
When connecting the **STKa117xL** to the host PC, **two** COM interfaces will show up.
