AI-generated Summary: The Current Measurement Program for the RZ/G series enables precise current measurement, graph plotting, and data saving for RZ/G3S and RZ/G3E evaluation kits. It operates on Windows 10 PCs and interfaces via USB and micro USB connections. The system uses ISL28025FR12Z sensors for voltage and current measurement, with FTDI chips handling USB-I2C conversion. Installation requires placing two files on the PC, and connections involve USB PD and micro USB cables between the PC and EVK boards. The program supports measurement control, trigger setting, data logging, and file management, facilitating detailed current analysis for embedded system evaluation.

  1. G3S supports DDR4, how should BP_VREF be handled?

    We are currently using the G3S and preparing it to support DDR4. I noticed that Renesas's RZ/G3S-EVKIT board uses LPDDR4. I also saw that the G3S has a BP_VREF pin, which is currently left floating. Is this because LPDDR4 has a built-in VREF reference ...
