Introduction

RZ/N1 is a family of scalable ARM® based industrial Ethernet switches. Due to the integrated performant ARM® Cortex®-A7 CPU, they are ideal choice for building products such as Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC), complex remote-IO slaves, industrial switches, gateways or operator terminals.

RZ/N1 Family consists of three devices, out of which the RZ/N1S, is an industrial ethernet communication System on Chip with a 3 or 5-ports, depending on the respective chosen package 324BGA/196BGA.

This guide shall assist you to quickly start with your evaluation of the RZ/N1S device on the related Solution Kit board(s) and the Solution Kit software and documentation. It represents a short guide for the first time users with the instructions for the first startup of the board.

In addition to this document, please be aware of the extensive documentation on RZ/N1 devices, evaluation boards and software that you may find in the Solution Kit Documentation directory.

The Solution Kit boards can solely be used for evaluation purposes. It is not allowed to use the boards for commercial purposes.

1. Overview

The following chapters will help you setup the hardware and software environment and run a sample application on your RZ/N1L evaluation board.

• The Solution Kit is being actively updated and new versions of it are iteratively released

• Current version of Solution Kit is providing a snapshot of the latest software and documentation

versions at the release time

The CONNECT IT! ETHERNET RZ/N1S Solution Kit is based on the RZ/N1S, a 3/5-port, industrial Ethernet communication SoC in a 324BGA / 196BGA package. RZ/N1D features two independent blocks integrated in a single package – a communication block based on the proven multi-protocol R-IN Engine, as well as an application block and a variety of peripherals. In contrast to the RZ/N1D, RZ/N1S includes only a single ARM® Cortex®-A7 CPU without an external DDR interface, but with 6MB internal SRAM. Please refer to the RZ/N1S device documentation for further differences. Also, the RZ/N1S Solution Kit contains everything you need for fast evaluation and rapid prototyping of multiple industrial Ethernet protocols.

The RZ/N1S Solution Kit contains

• RZ/N1S CPU Development Board

• IAR I-jet Lite debugger (incl. 20pin flat ribbon and USB-micro/A cable)

• USB Cable Micro / Type-A

• DVD RZ/N1x-DB Solution Kit for all RZ/N1x devices / boards

Additionally, one can order the RZ/N1-EB Expansion Board separately, that provides the user with the possibility to use an expanded range of functionalities and RZ/N1S interfaces. RZ/N1-EB kit contains:

• RZ/N1-EB Expansion Board

• Power Supply 24V/750mA

• Power Supply Primary Adapters Euro/UK/JPN-US

The expansion board has no stand-alone capability and requires an RZ/N1D or RZ/N1S CPU board.

1. JTAG Debug Connector

This connection is required for software development purposes, to be able to run and debug the software on the target. The IAR Debugger cable has one unused key pin, therefore pin 7 of the CN7 connector should be cut or bent, as shown below. After this step, you can attach your I-jet debugger to the board via JTAG cable.

Figure 2-2: Connector CN10 with removed pin 7

2. Power connector and serial-over-USB

The board is powered via USB connector CN6. Please make sure that the jumper CN14 is ON. Please connect the board to your PC via USB cable to the connector CN6. The same interface is used for serial UART communication with the board, so if you have a windows PC, after connecting the board via USB, you should be able to see a new device registered with 4 new USB Serial COM ports. You may use any of the terminal emulator on your PC to open a serial port connection to the board. The board uses the 3rd port for UART output at 115200,8,n,1. On Linux PCs, if you have no other serial-over-USB devices attached, this is accessed using /dev/ttyUSB2, provided you do not have any other USB devices attached.

Figure 2-4: Power connector and serial over USB

If the board is not recognized by Windows, please install the FTDI driver that you may find under …\YCONNECT-IT-RZN_V1.x\Tools\FTDI.

If the required 3.3V are supplied to RZ/N1S, the green LED24 will be lit and stay ON.
