e²studio, CubeSuite+ and High-performance Embedded Workshop, our integrated development environments, are easy to use, scalable to match your development needs, have a proven track record, and fully support the RX family. They enable you to handle everything from coding and building to evaluation and verification.
They provide the necessary environment for all stages of the RX application development process and are backed by comprehensive support services, enabling customers to develop new systems in less time.
[e²studio] Renesas Eclipse-based integrated development environment [Target Devices] RX600 Series, RX200 Series, RX100 Series Learn more about this product
Renesas eclipse embedded studio, known as e²studio, is a complete development and debug environment based on the popular Eclipse CDT project. Essentially open source, the Eclipse CDT covers build (editor, compiler and linker control) as well as debug phase based on an extended GDB interface.
[CubeSuite+] An integrated development environment providing powerful support for all aspects of the development of embedded systems [Target Devices] RX600 Series, RX200 Series, RX100 Series Learn more about this product Download free evaluation version
Renesas now offers CubeSuite+, a new integrated development environment providing unified support for the company's MCUs with 8-bit through 32-bit architectures. CubeSuite+ provides powerful support for RX family application developments.
[Note] CubeSuite+ is not generally promoted to U.S. and European customers. Customers in the U.S. and Europe who are interested in CubeSuite+ are requested to contact our regional marketing departments for details.
<Transition guide> A transition guide covering functions, operation differences, and transition procedures is available for customers making the switch from High-performance Embedded Workshop to CubeSuite+. CubeSuite+ is an all-in-one package designed as an easy-to-use integrated development environment with a GUI-based interface and extensive right-click menus. Nevertheless, its operation may seem unfamiliar to users accustomed to High-performance Embedded Workshop and who may have difficulty locating the functions they need. The transition guide is designed to help you avoid these inconveniences as far as possible.

[Note] We have no plans to make the High-performance Embedded Workshop being correspondent to the RX100 Series.
Want to get started evaluating RX Family products right away? Renesas Starter Kits are just what you are looking for. They contain all the development environment elements needed for MCU evaluation and initial implementation. Since all of the MCU's control signals are output, the board can be connected to the system under development for easy debugging.
[ Components of Renesas Starter Kit for RX ]
CPU board
On-chip debugging emulator E1
Evaluation version of C/C++ Compiler Package for RX Family (incl. Simulator)
Evaluation version of Flash Development Toolkit (Programming software)
High-Performance Evaluation Boards Evaluation and demo boards for checking RX system operation are available. They provide a way to confirm the speedy and powerful performance of the RX with your own eyes. Check out our demo video!
[ RX610 Demo system ]
[ RX62N Demo system ]
EtherC, USB (Host, Function) installed. A variety of communication functions are supported on a single chip.
Supports a variety of middleware and drivers. This reduces the software development burden.
Eliminates the need for external components such as LCD controllers.
Package including compiler, assembler, optimizing linker, cycle accurate simulator, and stack analysis tool
Conformance with ANSI C89 and C99 standards. (Except for variable-length arrays.)
Easy porting of program code for earlier MCUs (setting option to assimilate language specifications, checking/notification of specific extended specifications, endian switching)
Conformance with industry-standard µITRON4.0 specification (RI600PX and RI600/PX include memory protection functionality.)
Compact design suitable for implementation in ROM
Automatic selection of only required modules during linking for a more lightweight system
GUI configurator to facilitate building the kernel
Interoperates with CubeSuite+ to support automatic setting of options required to build the OS and display of the state of objects managed by the OS such as masks and semaphores.
Debugging functions with real-time OS support through High-performance Embedded Workshop (real-time OS auto-recognition, debugging console with standard I/O support and no need for patches)

Flexible support for RX Family products with common interface settings
Sample program code included. Highly efficient design enabling rapid progress to the finished product
*The library can be used with both CubeSuite+ and High-performance Embedded Workshop, but the sample programs included in the library are compatible with High-performance Embedded Workshop only.
Easy connection. Allows debugging of an RX MCU while mounted on the system board.
Powered by USB bus. No dedicated power supply needed.
Also functions as a flash programmer.
Environmentally friendly. All materials in components and package are RoHS compliant.
E1 Emulator Learn more Basic debugging functions at an affordable price. Also provides on-chip trace function.
E20 Emulator Learn more More fully featured than the E1. Enables more advanced debugging with more powerful trace functions, real-time RAM monitoring, and more. (For RX600 Series)
[ Graphical display of function information and variable information. CubeSuite+ analysis graph function ]
The E1 and E20 emulators provide a graphical display like an oscilloscope of changing variable values as a program runs. This allows you to monitor changes in analog signals, as required for sensor applications and the like, during program development. Function run time division and call graphs can be used to identify high-load processes and provide an efficient way to boost the performance of the system overall.
[ E20 Debug MCU Board for Debugging that Leaves User Pins Free ] With an on-chip debugger, some user pins must be used for connections to the debugger. A debug MCU board, in contrast, leaves all the user pins free while enabling the full functionality of the E20. There are also high-capacity trace and real-time RAM monitoring functions that work even with MCUs that have no trace signals.
