Renesas RX65N, RX72N Application Note

Application Note

RX Family

Aeropoint Module Firmware Integration Technology

Introduction

This application note describes the Aeropoint module which uses Firmware Integration Technology (FIT).
This module is hereinafter referred to as “the Aeropoint FIT module”.

Target Device

・RX65N group、RX651group ROM capacity：1.5MB to 2MB

・RX72N group ROM capacity：1.5MB to 4MB

When this application note is applied to other Renesas MCUs, careful evaluation is recommended after
making modifications to comply with the alternate MCU.

Target Compilers

・Renesas Electronics C/C++ Compiler Package for RX Family

For details of the confirmed operation contents of each compiler, refer to “2.7 Adding the FIT Module to Your
Project”.

RX Family Aeropoint Module Firmware Integration Technology

1. Overview

1.1 Aeropoint FIT Module

The Aeropoint FIT module is used as an API, by implementing in a project. Refer to “2.7 Adding the FIT
Module to Your Project” for how to implement the Aeropoint FIT module into a project.

1.2 Overview of the Aeropoint FIT Module

The Aeropoint FIT module enables Aeropoint GUI to be easily implemented in a user’s program with Smart
Configurator by making Aeropoint GUI by CRI Middleware correspond to FIT.

For the details of Aeropoint GUI, refer to the document below.
