Getting Started with RX Development
Evaluation Tools for RX MCU Performance
What You Need For Development
Other drivers, sample software, and other software for supporting development
In addition to the tools and software shown above, Renesas offers a variety of other software for supporting development.
Development Environment
The Renesas integrated development environment provides robust overall support for embedded system development.
Provides a user-friendly development environment for evaluating Renesas microcontroller. You can perform coding and debugging using the emulator and integrated development environment that are included.
Four emulator models that support real-time debugging on the actual chip using the debugging functionality built into the Renesas MCU mounted in the user system.
Software
Sample code that utilizes various package software, middleware, and drivers, such as application examples and device control examples.
Programming Tools
On-board programming software that uses the E2 emulator Lite, E1, or E20 on-chip debugging emulators and a serial or USB connection with the RX Family.
The PG-FP6 installed in a system is a tool for erasing, programming, and verifying programs on Renesas MCUs with on-chip flash memory.
An abundance of development tools is available for each stage of research and development
