Overview
Description
The Renesas Solution Starter Kit for RX23E-B is an evaluation tool designed for sensor measurement using the RX23E-B 32-bit microcontroller (MCU). The kit includes an RX23E-B MCU evaluation board equipped with peripherals for sensor measurements and software that can be downloaded from our website. Analog characterization can be started immediately after purchasing the kit. This kit allows developers to shorten development time and bring their products to market faster. The RX23E-B microcontroller with an integrated high-precision analog front-end (AFE) is ideal for industrial sensor equipment. Equipped with a high-speed 24-bit delta-sigma A/D converter with a maximum data rate of 125kSPS and a 16-bit D/A converter, this 32-bit MCU achieves high-speed and high-precision sensor measurement, calculation, control, and communication on a single chip.
Renesas Solution Starter Kit (RSSK) Configuration
This RSSK consists of an evaluation module equipped with the RX23E-B MCU, our Quick and Effective tool solution for AFE (QE for AFE), and a board control program that communicates with QE for AFE and controls the analog front end, A/D converter, and D/A converter.
The evaluation board is equipped with circuits for A/D conversion, thermocouple measurement, resistance temperature detector measurement, load cell measurement, and D/A converter output, supporting the evaluation of A/D and D/A converters and application evaluation using various sensors.
QE for AFE, a GUI-based support tool, can be combined with a factory board control program to set the operation of the AFE, A/D converter, and D/A converter, and to acquire and display A/D conversion results.
The kit also includes various application notes and sample programs providing developers with further guidance and support.
