Description
Renesas Flash Programmer V3
Topics
The Renesas Flash Programmer supports the RL78/G24, new Generation RL78 General-Purpose Microcontrollers with Highest RL78 Processing Performance and Enhanced Analog and Timers.
Renesas Flash Programmer V3 provides usable and functional support for programming the on-chip flash memory of Renesas microcontrollers in each phase of development and mass production.
Features
- A simple GUI makes operations easy, even for first-time developers
- PC-controlled programming via the E2 emulator, E2 emulator Lite, E20 emulator, Segger J-Link debug probes, a serial or USB connection
- Interoperation with other software.
- The efficiency of work can be improved by, for example, writing data to many boards consecutively and retaining logs of the written data in files.
- Batch processing
- The sequence of operations equivalent to those from starting the GUI to specifying a project and pressing the start button can be repeated easily from the Windows command line without actually starting the GUI (Command-line options). This is very useful for programming large quantities in mass production.
- Programming a unique code to a designated area of flash memory
- Enhanced security against theft through the encryption of program files [Learn More]
- Easier creation of projects (compared with V2) [Learn More]
- Easy selection of type names. No need to select detailed type names for products of the RL78 family.
- Easy setting of mode pins for RX family products.
- Improvements in processing speed (compared with V2)
- The programming time has been shortened by approximately 10 percent.
- In the case of the RL78 family, programming times have been shortened by up to 50 percent.(These data were gathered under specific conditions, and we do not guarantee a specific increase in speed.)
