2.0 Introduction

The Renesas HEW Target Server (HTS) Demo Kit is a low-cost development environment for evaluating M16C family microcontrollers (MCU) and Renesas software development tools.

The kit comes with a complete software development tool chain for Renesas MCUs, including High- performance Embedded Workshop (HEW), which consists of Integrated Development Environment (IDE), Graphical User Interface (GUI) and Software Debugger; NC30WA C-compiler, assembler and linker; and Flash Development Toolkit (FDT) programming software.

The HTS Demo Kit features on-board in-circuit debugging and programming support, eliminating the need for an external In-Circuit Debug (ICD) unit. All that is required for in-circuit debugging and programming with the HTS Demo Kit is a USB connection to a PC and the included development tool software.

A real-time, source-level debug environment is implemented using the HEW software debug interface in conjunction with the HTS Demo Kit board. The Flash Development Toolkit Programmer software allows in-system programming of the HTS Demo Kit board’s M16C/26A Flash MCU.

The HTS Demo Kit board features an M16C/26A group MCU, switch, LEDs, photo sensor, serial external Flash and audio amplifier circuit for user experiments. Example application code and peripheral device initialization code are provided on CD-ROM.

This manual provides the technical details of the HTS Demo Kit hardware. The Quick Start Guide provides details on the software installation and usage of the debugging environment.
