With this attractively priced starter kit you get everything you need for your first handson experiments with the new R32C/111 32-bit microcontroller. The power supply is drawn from your computer via the USB connection, which simplifies things rather nicely.
The starter kit consists of an R32C carrier board (a microcontroller module equipped with the R32C/111 chip) and a software CD-ROM containing the necessary development tools.
As with the earlier R8C/13 ‘Tom Thumb’ project in Elektor Electronics (November 2005 through March 2006), the R32C carrier board is an in-house-development of Glyn, an authorised distributor for Renesas in Germany.
