Renesas R-Car H3ULCB
|
|
####################
|
|
|
|
Overview
|
|
********
|
|
- The H3 Starter Kit board is designed for evaluating the features and performance of the R-CAR H3 device from Renesas Electronics and it is also used for developing and evaluating application software for these R-CAR H3.
|
|
|
|
- The H3 Starter Kit, based on the R-CAR H3 SIP, comes with LPDDR4 @4GB in 2-channel, each 64-bit wide+Hyperflash @64MB, CSI2 interfaces and several communication interfaces like USB, Ethernet, HDMI and can work standalone or can be adapted to other boards, via 440pin connector on bottom side.
|
|
|
|
It is possible to order 2 different types of H3 Starter Kit Boards, one with Ethernet connection onboard and one with Ethernet connection on ComExpress.

|
|
|
|
.. note:: The H3ULCB board can be plugged on a Renesas Kingfisher Infotainment daughter board through COM Express connector in order to physically access more I/O. CAUTION: In this case, power supply is managed by the daughter board.
|
|
|
|
More information about the board can be found at `Renesas R-Car Starter Kit website`_.

|
Hardware
|
|
********
|
|
|
|
Hardware capabilities for the H3ULCB for can be found on the `eLinux H3SK page`_ of the board.

GPIO
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
By running Zephyr on H3ULCB, the software readable push button 'SW3' can be used as input, and the software controllable LED 'LED5' can be used as output.
|
|
|
|
UART
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
H3ULCB board is providing two serial ports, only one is commonly available on the board, however, the second one can be made available either by welding components or by plugging the board on a Kingfisher Infotainment daughter board.
|
|
|
|
Here is information about these serial ports:

|
|
|
|
.. note:: The Zephyr console output is assigned to SCIF1 (commonly used on Kingfisher daughter board) with settings 115200 8N1 without hardware flow control by default.
|
|
|
|
Here is CN04 UART interface pinout (depending on your Kingfisher board version):

|
|
|
|
H3ULCB board provides two CAN interfaces. Both interfaces are available on the Kingfisher daughter board.

I2C
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
H3ULCB board provides two I2C buses. Unfortunately direct access to these buses is not available through connectors.
|
|
|
|
I2C is mainly used to manage and power on multiple of onboard chips on the H3ULCB and Kingfisher daughter board.
|
|
|
|
Embedded I2C devices and I/O expanders are not yet supported. The current I2C support therefore does not make any devices available to the user at this time.
|
|
|
|
PWM
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
ULCB boards provide one PWM controller with a maximum of 7 channels [0..6]. H3ULCB does provide the pwm0 from test pin CP8 only.
|
|
|
|
When plugged on a Kingfisher daughter board, pwm4 channel is available on CN7 LVDS connector.
|
|
|
|
Programming and Debugging
|
|
*************************
|
|
|
|
Build and flash applications as usual (see :ref:`build_an_application` and
|
|
:ref:`application_run` for more details).
|
|
|
|
Supported Debug Probe
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
The "Olimex ARM-USB-OCD-H" probe is the only officially supported probe. This probe is supported by OpenOCD that is shipped with the Zephyr SDK.
|
|
|
|
The "Olimex ARM-USB-OCD-H" probe needs to be connected with a SICA20I2P adapter to CN3 on H3ULCB.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
See `eLinux Kingfisher page`_ "Known issues" section if you encounter problem with JTAG.
|
|
|
|
Configuring a Console
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
Connect a USB cable from your PC to CN04 of your Kingfisher daughter board.
|
|
|
|
Use the following settings with your serial terminal of choice (minicom, putty,
|
|
etc.):
|
|
|
|
- Speed: 115200
|
|
- Data: 8 bits
|
|
- Parity: None
|
|
- Stop bits: 1
|
|
|
|
Flashing
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
First of all, open your serial terminal.
|
|
|
|
Applications for the ``rcar_h3ulcb/r8a77951/r7`` board configuration can be built in the usual way (see :ref:`build_an_application` for more details).
|
|
|
|
.. zephyr-app-commands::
|
|
:zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
|
|
:board: rcar_h3ulcb/r8a77951/r7
|
|
:goals: flash
|
|
|
|
You should see the following message in the terminal:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
*** Booting Zephyr OS build v2.6.0-rc1 ***
|
|
Hello World! rcar_h3ulcb
|
|
|
|
Debugging
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
First of all, open your serial terminal.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example for the :zephyr:code-sample:`hello_world` application.
|
|
|
|
.. zephyr-app-commands::
|
|
:zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
|
|
:board: rcar_h3ulcb/r8a77951/r7
|
|
:goals: debug
|
|
|
|
You will then get access to a GDB session for debug.
|
|
|
|
By continuing the app, you should see the following message in the terminal:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
*** Booting Zephyr OS build v2.6.0-rc1 ***
|
|
Hello World! rcar_h3ulcb
