Overview

Description

The Renesas Starter Kit for RX111 is intended as a user-friendly introductory and evaluation tool for the RX111 microcontroller. The board also provides a useful platform for evaluating the Renesas suite of development tools for coding and debugging, using CubeSuite+.

The purpose of the board is to enable the user to evaluate the capabilities of the device and its peripherals by giving the user a simple platform on which code can be run only minutes from opening box. It can also prove an invaluable tool in development by providing a useful test platform for code already debugged using one of our more powerful emulation tools.

* CubeSuite+ is not generally promoted to the U.S. and European customers. Customers in the U.S. and Europe who are interested in CubeSuite+ are requested to contact our regional marketing departments for details.

Product Limitation

Renesas Starter Kit for RX111 Product Limitation (16 Oct 2013)
A limitation exists with the board used on a batch of Renesas Starter Kit for RX111 Products.
Serial Numbers Affected: 00045380 to 00045879 inclusive.

Limitation:
The RSKRX111 board 3.3V supply is actual at 3.8V.

Explanation:
By mistaken voltage regulator mounting, regulator does not provide 3.3V.

Work-around:
Please modify the RSKRX111 board as follows.
This modification will provide 3.3V.

Remove R103 and replace R104 with 0R resistor.
Link J7 should be left open.
