+Overview
+********
+
+The EK-RA4C1, an Evaluation Kit for the RA4 Series, enables users to seamlessly evaluate
+the features of the RA4C1 MCU group. The users can use rich on-board features along with
+their choice of popular ecosystems add-ons to bring their big ideas to life.
+
+The key features of the EK-RA4C1 board are categorized in three groups (consistent with
+the architecture of the kit) as follows:
+
+**Renesas RA4C1 Microcontroller Group**
+
+- R7FA4C1BD3CFP MCU (referred to as RA MCU)
+- 80 MHz, Arm® Cortex®-M33 core
+- 512 KB Code Flash, 96 KB SRAM
+- 100 pins, LQFP package
+- Native pin access through 3 x 26-pin headers (not populated)
+- Tamper Detection embedded into J4
+- Segment LCD Board Interface
+- MCU current measurement points for precision current consumption measurement
+- Multiple clock sources – RA MCU oscillator and sub-clock oscillator crystals,
+  providing precision 8.000 MHz and 32,768 Hz reference clocks. Additional low-precision
+  clocks are available internal to the RA MCU
+
+**System Control and Ecosystem Access**
+
+- Two 5 V input sources
+
+   - USB (Debug)
+   - External Power Supply 2-pin header (not populated)
+
+- Three Debug modes
+
+   - Debug on-board (SWD)
+   - Debug in (SWD)
+   - Debug out (SWD, SWO and JTAG)
+
+- User LEDs and buttons
+
+   - Three User LEDs (red, blue, green)
+   - Power LED (white) indicating availability of regulated power
+   - Debug LED (yellow) indicating the debug connection
+   - Two User buttons
+   - One Reset button
+
+- Five most popular ecosystems expansions
+
+   - Two Seeed Grove® system (I2C/Analog) connectors (not populated)
+   - SparkFun® Qwiic® connector (not populated)
+   - Two Digilent PmodTM (SPI, UART and I2C) connectors
+   - Arduino™ (UNO R3) connector
+   - MikroElektronikaTM mikroBUS connector (not populated)
+
+- MCU boot configuration jumper
+- Low Voltage Mode voltage input and operation
+
+**Special Feature Access**
+- 32 MB (256 Mb) External Quad-SPI Flash
+- CAN-FD (3-pin header)
+- External Battery Connector
+- Configuration Switch
+
+Hardware
+********

+Supported Features
+==================
+
+.. zephyr:board-supported-hw::
+
+Programming and Debugging
+*************************
+
+.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::
+
+Flashing
+========
+
+Program can be flashed to EK-RA4C1 via the on-board SEGGER J-Link debugger.
+SEGGER J-link's drivers are avaialbe at https://www.segger.com/downloads/jlink/
+
+To flash the program to board
+
+   1. Connect to J-Link OB via USB port to host PC
+
+   2. Make sure J-Link OB jumper is in default configuration as describe in `EK-RA4C1 - User's Manual`_.
+      Note: SW4-4 needs to be set to OFF
+
+   3. Execute west command
+
+     .. code-block:: console
+
+        west flash -r jlink
