We have released three converter boards* for the R8C/2A, R8C/2B, R8C/2C, and R8C/2D MCU groups.
*Used together with the emulation probe--R0E521000EPB00--or the compact emulator--R0E521000CPE00--for the R8C/Tiny MCU series.


1. Outlines
   Three converter boards for the R8C/2A, R8C/2B, R8C/2C, and R8C/2D groups 
   connect the R0E521000EPB00 emulation probe or the R0E521000CPE00 compact 
   emulator with target MCUs of the R8C/2A, R8C/2B, R8C/2C, or R8C/2D 
   group to emulate them.
   The product types of these converter boards are listed below. 
   For details of the specifications of the boards, see the user's manuals 
   of them. The Web pages shown below will be opened from February 20 on.

   For general descriptions of the R0E521000EPB00 emulation probe and the 
   R0E521000CPE00 compact emulator, see their datasheets on the Web sites 
   for the emulation probe, and this page for the compact emulator.
  
   To emulate any MCU of the R8C/2A, R8C/2B, R8C/2C, and R8C/2D groups, 
   you need a firmware file and an MCU files (containing information 
   specific to the MCU). 
   MCU file is included in a latest emulator debugger. (Updated Jul. 5, 2007)
