The Dragon12_light trainer is a feature-packed, high quality training board for a 16-bit HCS12 microcontroller made by NXP (formerly Freescale and Motorola). It incorporates many on-board peripherals that make this board a useful trainer in universities.

It's a perfect way to start teaching an EE/ECE course with the Dragon12-Light trainer. It's not as simple as an 8-bit trainer and not as difficult as a 32-bit ARM trainer.

It's easy to start teaching an EE/ECE course with the Dragon12-Light trainer since vast online resource and textbooks are available for professors.

For DIY makers and engineers it's a convenient prototype system suitable to rapidly develop and prototype HCS12 applications. For students, it can not only to be used as a general trainer for freshman and sophomore students, but also as a versatile platform for senior projects as well. The features of the Dragon12_light board create a new potential for students at every level.
