RSKRL78G1G User Circuitry 5. User Circuitry Reset Circuit A reset control circuit is not fitted to the RSK, as the MCU is capable of voltage and power-on detection. Resets are handled internally, and the reset switch is connected directly to the RESET pin on the MCU. Clock Circuit A clock circuit is fitted to the RSK to generate the required clock signal to drive the MCU, and associated peripherals.
RSKRL78G1G User Circuitry Potentiometer A single-turn potentiometer is connected as a potential divider to analog input ANI0 (Port P20, Pin 41). The potentiometer is fitted to offer an easy method of supplying a variable analog input to the microcontroller. It does not necessarily reflect the accuracy of the controller’s ADC.
Table 5-5: Pmod™2 Header Connections (PMOD2) USB Serial Port A USB serial port implemented in another Renesas low power microcontroller (RL78/G1C) is fitted on the RSK to the microcontroller UART1. Multiple options are provided to allow re-use of the serial interface.
RSKRL78G1G User Circuitry Simplified I The RL78/G1G features one Simplified I C interface modules. IIC00 is connected to a 16Kbit EEPROM (Electronically-Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory). Specific details of the EEPROM device and the connections can be found in the board schematics. On board EEPROM only supports single device on bus.
