The ToolStick-F700DC kit contains the following items:

ToolStick C8051F700 Daughter Card
A ToolStick daughter card requires a ToolStick Base Adapter to communicate with the PC. ToolStick Base Adapters
can be purchased at www.silabs.com/toolstick. The QuickSense Studio package, which includes an example that
can run on the F700 daughter card, can be found at
www.silabs.com/QuickSense.
3. ToolStick Overview
The purpose of the ToolStick is to provide a development and demonstration platform for Silicon Laboratories
microcontrollers and to demonstrate the Silicon Laboratories software tools, including the Integrated Development
Environment (IDE).
The ToolStick development platform consists of two components: the ToolStick Base Adapter and a daughter card.
The ToolStick Base Adapter provides a USB debug interface and data communications path between a Windows
PC and a target microcontroller.
The target microcontroller and application circuitry are located on the daughter card. Some daughter cards, such
as the C8051F700 Daughter Card, are used as general-purpose development platforms for the target
microcontrollers and some are used to demonstrate a specific feature or application.
The C8051F700 Daughter Card includes a pair of LEDs, a potentiometer, a push-button switch, two capacitive
sense switches, and a small prototyping area which provides access to all of the pins of the device. This
prototyping area can be used to connect additional hardware to the microcontroller and use the daughter card as a
development platform.
