4.0 System Connectivity
Figure 4-1 shows the system connectivity for the Mini R8C SKP.
4.1 Host Computer Requirements
The minimum requirement to be able to use the software that comes with the kit is a PC with an
available USB port and Microsoft Windows 98, ME, 2000, or XP operating system.
4.2 Mini R8C Board
The Mini R8C board provides a compact evaluation and development environment for the
R8C/Tiny series of MCU. It has two switches (pushbutton and slide) and LED’s for user interface.
It also has a CdS cell and thermistor on board.
4.3 In-Circuit Debugger
The ICD provides a plug-and-play debugging and programming interface to the Mini R8C board
by using the host computer’s Universal Serial Bus (USB). The USB port also provides power to
the Mini R8C board and ICD thereby eliminating the need for an external power supply.
NOTE:
The ICD can be used to connect to other boards (i.e. customer target boards) with an R8C or
M16C Flash MCU. For details, please see ICD User’s Manual included with the kit (Start > All
Programs > RENESAS-TOOLS > SKP8CSKP > Document Descriptions).
4.4 Development Tools
Aside from SKP documentation and sample code, the SKP installer program also installs the
development tools. Please see the quick start guide on how to run the SKP installer.
