Renesas RA Family

5.4 Connectivity

5.4.1 USB Full Speed

The USB micro-AB connection jack (J11) connects the RA MCU USB Full Speed interface to an external
USB interface, allowing communications for testing and use of the RA MCU firmware. This connection can
be configured as a USB device.
Connect a USB type-A female to micro-B male cable to J11. USB device cables can be connected to the
USB Full Speed port using this cable.

5.4.2 I3C

The Arduino, mikroBUS, Grove, Qwiic, and Pmod 1 connectors connect the RA MCU I3C interface to
2
external I3C or I C devices allowing communications between devices.
2
I C bus pull-ups R11 and R41 are controlled by P206 and P205. When the bus is configured as I
these two pull-ups should be enabled by driving P205 and P206 high. When configured as I3C, then P205
and P206 should be set to high impedance (input). If P205 and P206 are required for other purposes, then
they can be isolated by cutting trace-cut jumpers E63 and E73 respectively.
