Functions
Creating Projects for the IDEs from Renesas Partners
You can create projects for EWARM from IAR Systems or the Keil MDK from Arm.
Creating a Project that Supports TrustZone®
You can create a project that supports TrustZone® or a flat project that does not support TrustZone®
Reading and Changing the State of a Device that Supports TrustZone®
You can read and change the state of a device that supports TrustZone®
For a device that supports TrustZone®, you can use the Renesas Device Partition Manager (RDPM) to check and change the state of the device lifecycle management (DLM), make the memory partition settings, and restore the state of the device to that at the time of shipment.
Setting Pins
You can set pins via a GUI and verify and resolve cases where conflicting functions are assigned to the same pins.
You can set the pins to be used for each peripheral function on the [Pins] page.
The [FSP Visualization] view shows used pins, unused pins, and pins to which conflicting functions are assigned in different colors to allow easy confirmation of the overall state.
Adding and Deleting Threads and Objects
You can add and delete threads, FSP module instances, and kernel objects on the [Stacks] page and change each of the properties in the [Properties] view.
