RL78/D1A (Automotive Only)
Microcontrollers for automotive low-end instrument clusters with built-in features such as sound generator, stepper motor controller/driver, and segmented LCD driver
RL78/D1A microcontrollers have a built-in sound generator which can set a volume level and tone frequency of 100 Hz to 6 kHz and has an automatic volume decrement function, up to four channels of stepper motor controller/driver which can set an 8-bit precision (pseudo 9-bit precision using a 1-bit addition function) pulse width (PWM output), and an LCD controller/driver which supports up to 216 segments. The 128-pin version has a built-in LCD bus interface and two channels of CAN, and expanded flash memory/RAM up to a maximum of 512 KB/24 KB, making these microcontrollers ideal for low-end instrument cluster.

e² studio | This integrated development environment (IDE) is based on the popular combination of the open-source Eclipse IDE and its CDT plug-in that enables C/C++ language development. |
CS+ | This integrated development environment (IDE) can be used for coding, assembly, compiling, and simulation. CS+ is also included with starter kits. |
E2 emulator Lite | This entry-level on-chip debugging emulator provides functionality equivalent to that of the E1 emulator at a low price. |
E2 emulator | This on-chip debugging emulator has advanced features that improve the efficiency of development. In addition to the basic functions from debugging to flash programming, this emulator supports hot plug-in and external triggers as standard items. This emulator also helps to reduce development time by downloading at high speeds (compared to the E1 emulator) and the ability to work in combination with various solutions such as the tuning of current drawn by systems under development. |
E1 emulator | This on-chip debugging emulator is a standard model which provides basic debugging functions (production is to be discontinued at the end of December 2019). |
