  • Page 25 (3) There is insufficient bus power to run the ICD and target board. Bus power can supply up to 100mA to both ICD and SKP boards. Renesas SKP boards were designed so that the combination of ICD and SKP board will be under 100mA limit. If your target board is a non-Renesas SKP board, change S1 to TRGTPWRD and connect an external power supply to your target board.
  • Page 26 (4) The target MCU is damaged. Try a different target board and see if a target connection can be established. You may have a damaged MCU on your target board. RTA-FOUSB-MON User’s Manual Rev 1.8 25 / 29 August 2003...
  • Page 27 (1) Unplug the USB cable and disconnect the target board from the ICD. (2) Open the ICD. Renesas recommend that you open from the USB connector side. (3) Shunt JP1 with a 2.54mm (.100 mil) jumper and shunt or a bent paper clip. This will then configure the ICD to run in boot mode when it is powered up.
