Description

The SENT Interface Extension Board can be used with the RH850 Generation 2 Mainboard, designed to simplify and accelerate the evaluation of Renesas Electronics’ 32-bit RH850 family microcontrollers. It specifically supports devices with built-in SENT interfaces (RSENT) and integrates seamlessly with the ZSSC4161D Signal Conditioner IC, enabling precise signal processing and sensor interfacing.

Features

  • Built-in signal conditioner IC ZSSC4161D
  • Build a sensor dummy circuit that can be disconnected by jumper settings
  • Test point for “SENT DATA”
  • Common ground connector for measurement or testing purposes
  • Connector for different external sensor circuits
  • Four different error types can be simulated by dedicated buttons or jumpers
  • Sub-D connector for easy interconnection with the RH850/F1KM-S1 Starter

The RH850 Main Board is an expansion board to the RH850 MCU piggyback boards adding multiple communication interfaces. The board includes transceivers for standard interfaces (CAN, LIN, SENT, FlexRay) as well as Pmod ports for extension boards, and provides connectors for add-on boards with high-speed communication interfaces (CAN-XL, Ethernet), for TFT or OLED displays and motor control ports. The main board has a single 12V power supply that can also be used to power connected piggyback boards.
