Overview
Description
The Renesas Demonstration Kit (RDK) for RL78 is an evaluation and demonstration tool for Renesas RL78/F13 and RL78/F14 microcontrollers. The goal is to provide the user with a powerful debug and demonstration platform targeted at common automotive and industrial (CAN) applications. This full-featured, affordable kit with an on-board debugger, full I/O, and extensive software support enables users to jump-start their hardware development. This RDK also supports a motor control extension board, allowing users to quickly develop advanced motor control applications. The board also provides a useful platform for evaluating the Renesas suite of development tools for coding and debugging, using the IAR Embedded Workbench or CubeSuite+ IDE as well as programming the device using the on-board TK debugger.
The RDK also provides an opportunity to evaluate QuantiPhi Renesas Edition, a powerful new configuration and driver generation tool developed by SimuQuest. QuantiPhi automates the low-level driver code generation so that users can focus on their applications, and therefore, get products to market faster. Low-level drivers generated by QuantiPhi are MISRA C compliant, fully tested, and well-documented. A state-of-the-art device configuration interface is provided so that the pin assignment and peripheral configuration of a device can be done without reading the device's user manual. Live error checking in the configuration interface prevents configuration errors such as pin/function assignment overlap instantly.
Features
- Outputs: LCD display, two discrete user LEDs, one RGB LED
- Motor Control: Motor control header with TVS diodes, for use with an external driver board.
- User Interface: 4 user pushbuttons and 4 user DIP switches
- Communications: USB interface connected to an external USB controller (for debug and UART communication), LIN interface, CAN interface, SPI I2C PMOD connections to support a variety of generic PMOD devices (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, RF, and much more).
- User Code and Application Debugging: On-board debugging via a USB connection (TK) for high-quality source code debugging

- RL78/F14 RDK Board (YRDKRL78F14) Demo
Hi, I'm having a little trouble getting up to speed on this RDK. Out of the box, it executes a nice little demo that looked like it exercised a bunch of the components on the board - LCD, LEDs, buttons, A/D etc. It would be GREAT if I ...
Feb 5, 2015 - YRDKRL78F14 (For RL78/F14) Drivers
I have recently purchased a YRDKRL78F14 (For RL78/F14) Demonstration Kit. As soon as I have started to download the software following the quick start guide, I realize that the QuantiPhi Renesas Edition for RL78 F13/F14 RDK is no longer available. As I see in the guide ...
