Overview
Description
The RL78/L23 Fast Prototyping Board, featuring the RL78/L23 MCU, is ideal for various prototype development. This board has a USB-UART converter for COM port debug function, enabling programming and debugging without extra tools. It includes an LCD panel (8 digits x 16 segments) and two touch buttons, thus you can start evaluation of the LCD and capacitive touch immediately. In addition, it has high flexibility and expandability by supporting Arduino Uno, Pmod™, Grove interfaces, and through-holes with access to all MCU pins. It supports firmware updating, Wi-Fi, LoRa, and LoRaWAN-based wireless communication by sample code. Renesas also provides an Arduino library that supports creating various programs (sketches) on the Arduino IDE.
Note: This board comes with two touch buttons using a capacitive sensor unit for simple evaluation, but when designing an actual board, please check the Capacitive Sensor Microcontrollers CTSU Capacitive Touch Electrode Design Guide (R30AN0389) and use the Capacitive Touch Evaluation System for RL78/L23 (RSSK-RL78L23) for evaluation.

Videos & Training
This video guides you through the development process using the FPB for RL78, covering three key steps: installing the IDE, generating a project with sample code, and verifying its operation. The video uses the FPB-RL78L23 as an example, but the process applies to FPBs for all RL78 products.
