FPB-RA8E1 Quick Start Guide

Overview

The RA8E1 Fast Prototyping Board comes equipped with an R7FA8E1AFDCFB microcontroller and is an evaluation board specialized for prototype development for a variety of applications. It has a built-in SEGGER J-Link™ emulator circuit so you can write/debug programs without additional tools. In addition, with Arduino Uno and Pmod™ interfaces included standard and through-hole access to all pins of the microcontroller, and so on, it has high expandability.

Sample software is available to demonstrate the functionality of the RA8E1 MCU and for connecting the RA8E1 Fast Prototyping Board with various wireless or sensor modules.
