Starter Kits
Ready-to-Use Starter Kits
Learn more about this product Want to get started evaluating RX Family products right away? Renesas Starter Kits are just what you are looking for. They contain all the development environment elements needed for MCU evaluation and initial implementation. Since all of the MCU's control signals are output, the board can be connected to the system under development for easy debugging. [ Components of Renesas Starter Kit for RX ] - CPU board
- On-chip debugging emulator E1
- Evaluation version of C/C++ Compiler Package for RX Family (incl. Simulator)
- Evaluation version of Flash Development Toolkit (Programming software)
- High-performance Embedded Workshop etc.

Emulators
 Two Types of Emulators
Two types of emulators, an affordable on-chip debugging emulator with basic functions and a full-spec emulator system with rich, high-performance debugging functions, are available. You can select and combine the emulator that best meet your development needs.
All emulator products include the High-performance Embedded Workshop integrated development environment and an emulator-debugger that runs under it.
|
[ E1 and E20 On-Chip Debugging Emulators ] - Easy connection. Allows debugging of an RX MCU while mounted on the system board.
- Powered by USB bus. No dedicated power supply needed.
- Also functions as a flash programmer.
- Environmentally friendly. All materials in components and package are RoHS compliant.
|  E1 Emulator
Learn more
Basic debugging functions at an affordable price. Also provides on-chip trace function.
|
|  E20 Emulator
Learn more
More fully featured than the E1. Enables more advanced debugging with more powerful trace functions, real-time RAM monitoring, and more. (For RX600 Series)
|
| E20 Debug MCU Board for Debugging that Leaves User Pins Free
With an on-chip debugger, some user pins must be used for connections to the debugger. A debug MCU board, in contrast, leaves all the user pins free while enabling the full functionality of the E20. There are also high-capacity trace and real-time RAM monitoring functions that work even with MCUs that have no trace signals.  |
[ E100 Full-Spec Emulator ]
Learn more about this product More advanced functions such as high-capacity trace, real-time profiles, and C0/C1 coverage, combined with an easy-to-use GUI. If already in use with earlier MCUs, simply change the MCU unit for compatibility with RX MCUs. |  |
