Renesas Starter Kit for RX630
Target Devices
Device Part No. populated on the board: R5F5630EDDFP (RX630 Group)
Product Overview
The Renesas Starter Kit for RX630 is intended as a user-friendly introductory and evaluation tool for the RX630 microcontroller. The kit also provides a useful platform for evaluating the Renesas suite of development tools for coding and debugging. This includes a choice of IDEs between the High-performance Embedded Workshop and e2studio.
The Renesas Starter Kit for RX630 may be connected to the host PC using a simple RS232 serial connection or via the included USB E1 on chip debugging interface.
The purpose of the board is to enable the user to evaluate the capabilities of the device and its peripherals by giving the user a simple platform on which code can be run only minutes from opening box. It can also prove an invaluable tool in development by providing a useful test platform for code already debugged using one of our more powerful emulation tools.
