Envision kit

Simplifies the evaluation of human machine interfaces (HMI).

This is an all-in-one kit which includes a WQVGA TFT-LCD to simplify the development of GUIs. With the sample demonstration which is preinstalled on this kit, you can experience aspects of performance such as the updating of firmware with a dual-bank flash function which makes the best use of the advantages of RX65N, RX651 and RX72N 32-bit MCUs, and the graphics produced by an LCD controller and a 2D drawing engine.
The source code of the sample program can be used for developing products in which RX MCUs are to be used, since it is available on the web for free.
In addition, application software can be designed without having the additional need to purchase an emulator, since an emulator circuit is mounted on the board.
The RX72N version of the kit offers higher performance since the RX72N 32-bit MCU includes the latest version of the RX core and large capacity memory. It also provides an on-board Wi-Fi module, audio DSP, MEMS microphone, Ethernet connector, and SD-card slot as standard items.
