Overview

This evaluation board kit is ideal for evaluating RZ/A3UL. The RZ/A3UL Evaluation Board Kit consists of a module board (SOM) and a carrier board. The module board complies with the SMARC v2.1 standard.

Two types of evaluation boards are available: QSPI version and Octal-SPI version.

  • QSPI version: Memory configuration/ QSPI Serial Flash (Boot) + DDR4: RTK9763U02S01002BE
  • Octal-SPI version: Memory configuration/ Octa Flash (Boot) + OctaRAM + DDR4: RTK9763U02S01003BE

RZ/A3UL Evaluation Board Kit supports real-time OSs (FreeRTOS, Azure RTOS) and various libraries (SSL/TLS, OTA, MQTT, TCP/IP, etc.) for IoT devices provided by major cloud vendors such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft.

In addition, it is equipped with input/output interfaces such as HDMI, audio, Ethernet, USB, and CAN, and can realize high-level IoT systems.
