Introduction
2.1 Overview
This chapter provides an overview of the Kinetis portfolio and K60 family of products. It
also presents high-level descriptions of the modules available on the devices covered by
this document.
2.2 K60 Family Introduction
The K60 MCU family includes IEEE 1588 Ethernet, full- and high-speed USB 2.0 On-
The-Go with device charger detect capability, hardware encryption and tamper detection
capabilities. Devices start from 256 KB of flash in 100LQFP packages extending up to 1
MB in a 256MAPBGA package with a rich suite of analog, communication, timing and
control peripherals. High memory density K60 family devices include an optional single
precision floating point unit, NAND flash controller and DRAM controller.
