Product Overview

The Renesas Demo Kit for SH7216 (YRDKSH7216) is intended as a user-friendly introductory and demonstration tool for the SH7216 microcontroller. The board also provides a useful platform for evaluating the Renesas suite of development tools for coding and debugging, using High-performance Embedded Workshop as well as programming the device using the on-board E10A-USB emulator.

The Renesas Demo Kit for SH7216 may be connected to the host PC using the on-board E10A-USB on chip debugging interface.

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.

The Renesas Demo Kit for SH7216 is also the hardware platform that is included in a special SH7216-specific edition of Micrium’s book on the µC/OS-III Real Time Kernel. The book and board combo targets serious programmers and college students who need to understand and create programs based on the timesaving features of a real-time kernel. Part I of the text covers the internals of the new µC/OS-III real-time kernel. The emphasis is on the internals, features, API calls, and where and how to use an RTOS, all presented in a clear and useful way, and accompanied by a wealth of diagrams. Part II provides specific examples for using µC/OS-III on the new Renesas SH7216 microcontroller.
