Product details
Overview
AC16DGM-AZ from Renesas Electronics is a 16-bit microcontroller development board designed for evaluation and prototyping of the RL78/G13 family MCUs. It supports on-chip debugging via E1 emulator, features an integrated USB interface for programming and communication, and includes onboard LEDs, push buttons, and expansion headers for peripheral interfacing. It is used in industrial control and sensor node development.
For engineers reviewing the AC16DGM-AZ datasheet, AC16DGM-AZ pinout, AC16DGM-AZ application, or AC16DGM-AZ equivalent, key considerations include its E1 debugger integration, RL78/G13 MCU support, USB-based programming capability, and compatibility with Renesas' CS+ and e² studio IDEs.
Technical Context
The AC16DGM-AZ serves as a hardware platform to evaluate RL78/G13 microcontrollers, providing direct access to core signals including reset, clock, SWD/I/O pins, and power rails. It implements the E1 on-chip debugging interface with built-in level-shifting circuitry to match target voltage ranges from 1.6 V to 5.5 V.
It includes a USB 2.0 Full-Speed interface (12 Mbps) for host connection, a 3.3 V LDO regulator for stable MCU supply, and configurable jumpers to isolate or route debug signals. The board does not contain a main MCU - it is a debugger/programmer adapter board intended to connect to external RL78/G13 target boards.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Debugger Interface | E1 on-chip debugging interface compliant with RL78 architecture; enables real-time trace, breakpoint, and memory inspection. |
| Target Voltage Range | 1.6 V to 5.5 V - supports wide-voltage RL78/G13 variants without external level shifters. |
| USB Interface | USB 2.0 Full-Speed (12 Mbps); provides power, debug communication, and virtual COM port functionality. |
| Onboard Regulation | 3.3 V LDO output (up to 200 mA); powers debugger logic and supplies optional target bias when enabled. |
| Expansion Headers | 2×14-pin 2.54 mm pitch headers; expose SWD, reset, VDD, VSS, and user I/O for custom target connection. |
| Compatibility | Designed exclusively for RL78/G13 group MCUs; not compatible with RL78/G14, G1A, or other RL78 sub-families. |

FAQ
What is the AC16DGM-AZ used for?
The AC16DGM-AZ is a dedicated E1 debugger and programming adapter board for RL78/G13 microcontrollers. It enables on-chip debugging, flash programming, and real-time monitoring via USB. Unlike standalone evaluation kits, the AC16DGM-AZ does not include a mounted MCU - it connects to external RL78/G13 target hardware. Its design focuses on reliability and voltage flexibility across diverse prototype configurations.
Does the AC16DGM-AZ include a microcontroller?
No, the AC16DGM-AZ does not include an integrated microcontroller. It is a debugger interface board intended to connect to external RL78/G13-based target systems. The board provides signal conditioning, voltage translation, USB bridging, and debug protocol handling - all centered around supporting external RL78/G13 devices during development.
Which software tools support the AC16DGM-AZ?
The AC16DGM-AZ is natively supported by Renesas' CS+ Integrated Development Environment and e² studio (with Renesas GCC or CC-RL toolchains). It appears as an E1 debugger device under Windows/Linux and requires no additional drivers beyond those included with the IDEs. Firmware updates for the debugger itself are delivered via Renesas' E1 Firmware Updater utility.
Can the AC16DGM-AZ be used with RL78/G14 or other RL78 families?
No, the AC16DGM-AZ is specifically designed and validated for the RL78/G13 family only. Renesas documentation explicitly states that it lacks compatibility with RL78/G14, G1A, G1F, or other RL78 derivatives due to differences in debug protocol timing, pin mapping, and voltage tolerance requirements. Using it with non-G13 devices may result in communication failure or unreliable operation.
What is the maximum target supply voltage the AC16DGM-AZ can handle?
According to Renesas' official documentation, the AC16DGM-AZ supports target supply voltages from 1.6 V to 5.5 V. This range is enforced through onboard level-shifting circuitry and voltage detection logic. Operation outside this window - especially above 5.5 V - risks damage to the debugger interface and invalidates functional behavior, even if physical connection appears intact.
