Renesas Synergy™ Platform
Getting Started with USBX™ HID Keyboard
(Device)
Introduction
This application note describes how to install, build, and run an example HID keyboard device application on a Renesas
Synergy development board using the Renesas e
application also includes the following key elements to demonstrate how they work together in a typical design:
ThreadX® RTOS, USBX device class, USBX device driver for the Renesas Synergy Platform, and a sample HID
keyboard device application
Goals and Objectives
The goal of this application note is to help you install, build, and run the example application.
The example application demonstrates HID keyboard device connectivity on the PE-HMI1, DK-S7G2, DK-S3A7, or
SK-S7G kit. It takes you through all the necessary steps with the Renesas Synergy Platform including using an example
application in the Renesas e
illustrates the use of a USB HID keyboard device class as a serial communications device connected through a serial
port (COM port) on a PC.
Prerequisites
The reader of this application note is assumed to have some experience with the Renesas e
example, before you perform the procedure in this application note, you should follow the procedure in your board's
Quick Start Guide to build and run the Blinky project. By doing so, you will become familiar with e
and ensure that the debug connection to your board is functioning properly.
Required Resources
The example application targets Renesas Synergy S7G2 and S3A7 devices. To build and run the example application,
you will need:
•
A Renesas Synergy DK-S7G2, SK-S7G2, PE-HMI1, or DK-S3A7 board
•
A PC running Microsoft® Windows® 7 with the following Renesas software installed:

You can download the required Renesas software from the Renesas Synergy Gallery
(https://synergygallery.renesas.com). The PC must also have a USB 2.0 port and connection to the Internet.
Time Required
You can install, build, and run the example application in under 30 minutes. The high-level steps involved are:
1. Connect to the target board.
2. Import, configure, and build the project.
3. Run the example application.
