Hi

for a concept car I need to drive a SPI based LED strip (ws2812) . In this project RGB information to drive the LEDs will be received via can protocol.

What is the simplest automotive ST controller whioch I can use for my project? Does it come with  a free tool chain?

1. What is the ceapest controller which would suit my project? Does it come with an eval board?

2. Which controller has the tool chain , which is easy to learn.Does it come with an eval board?

thx

Hello Dieter ,

I recommend you to use SPC56D-Discovery (Eval with Debugger integrated FTDI PLS)

There is CAN and DSPI IP

By using, SPC5Studio it comes with the freetoolchain and Drivers associated.

             Best Regards
