Chapter 2. Purpose
This RDK is an evaluation and demonstration tool for Renesas RL78 low-power microcontrollers. The goal is to provide
the user with a powerful debug and demonstration platform targeted at common applications. A set of human/machine
interfaces are tightly integrated with the features of the RL78 and the software demonstration programs providing the
user with an accessible platform to rapidly evaluate and customize.
Target Applications and Features:
Audio
• Stereo audio driver connected to the PWM interface
• Amplified on-board speaker and external audio jack.
• On-board microphone to demonstrate sampling, FFT/FPU capabilities
• Volume Control Potentiometer
User Interface
• Graphical LCD
• User pushbutton switches and a reset switch.
• On-board LEDs
Communications
• RS-232 Interface
• I
