RA6M4 Evaluation Kit
4+
####################
5+
6+
Overview
7+
********
8+
9+
The Renesas RA6M4 group uses the high-performance Arm® Cortex®-M33
10+
core with TrustZone®. Secure element functionality providing better
11+
performance, unlimited secure key storage, key management, and lower
12+
BOM cost, as well as the integrated Ethernet MAC with individual DMA
13+
ensures high data throughput. The RA6M4 is suitable for IoT applications
14+
requiring Ethernet, future proof security, large embedded RAM, and low
15+
active power consumption down to 99uA/MHz running the CoreMark®
16+
algorithm from Flash.
17+
18+
The key features of the EK-RA6M4 board are categorized in three groups as follow:
19+
20+
**MCU Native Pin Access**
21+
22+
- 200MHz Arm Cortex-M33 based RA6M4 MCU in 144 pins, LQFP package
23+
- Native pin access through 4 x 40-pin male headers
24+
- MCU current measurement points for precision current consumption measurement
25+
- Multiple clock sources - RA6M4 MCU oscillator and sub-clock oscillator crystals,
26+
providing precision 24.000 MHz and 32,768 Hz reference clock.
27+
Additional low precision clocks are avaialbe internal to the RA6M4 MCU
28+
29+
**System Control and Ecosystem Access**
30+
31+
- USB Full Speed Host and Device (micro-AB connector)
32+
- Three 5 V input sources
33+
34+
- USB (Debug, Full Speed)
35+
- External power supply (using surface mount clamp test points and power input vias)
36+
37+
- Three Debug modes
38+
39+
- Debug on-board (SWD)
40+
- Debug in (ETM, SWD and JTAG)
41+
- Debug out (SWD)
42+
43+
- User LEDs and buttons
44+
45+
- Three User LEDs (red, blue, green)
46+
- Power LED (white) indicating availability of regulated power
47+
- Debug LED (yellow) indicating the debug connection
48+
- Two User buttons
49+
- One Reset button
50+
51+
- Five most popular ecosystems expansions
52+
53+
- Two Seeed Grove system (I2C/Analog) connectors
54+
- One SparkFun Qwiic connector
55+
- Two Digilent Pmod (SPI and UART) connectors
56+
- Arduino (Uno R3) connector
57+
- MikroElektronika mikroBUS connector
58+
59+
- MCU boot configuration jumper
60+
61+
**Special Feature Access**
62+
63+
- Ethernet (RJ45 RMII interface)
64+
- 32 Mb (256 Mb) External Quad-SPI Flash
65+
- 64 Mb (512 Mb) External Octo-SPI Flash

105+
Programming and Debugging
106+
*************************
107+
108+
Applications for the ``ek_ra6m4`` board target configuration can be
109+
built, flashed, and debugged in the usual way. See
110+
:ref:`build_an_application` and :ref:`application_run` for more details on
111+
building and running.
112+
113+
Flashing
114+
========
115+
116+
Program can be flashed to EK-RA6M4 via the on-board SEGGER J-Link debugger.
117+
SEGGER J-link's drivers are avaialbe at https://www.segger.com/downloads/jlink/
118+
119+
To flash the program to board
120+
121+
1. Connect to J-Link OB via USB port to host PC
122+
123+
2. Make sure J-Link OB jumper is in default configuration as describe in `EK-RA6M4 - User's Manual`_
124+
125+
3. Execute west command
126+
127+
.. code-block:: console
128+
129+
west flash -r jlink
130+
131+
Debugging
132+
=========
133+
134+
You can use Segger Ozone (`Segger Ozone Download`_) for a visual debug interface
135+
136+
Once downloaded and installed, open Segger Ozone and configure the debug project
137+
like so:
138+
139+
* Target Device: R7FA6M4AF
140+
* Target Interface: SWD
141+
* Target Interface Speed: 4 MHz
142+
* Host Interface: USB
143+
* Program File: <path/to/your/build/zephyr.elf>
144+
145+
**Note:** It's verified that we can debug OK on Segger Ozone v3.30d so please use this or later
146+
version of Segger Ozone
147+
