Programming Environment

The firmware for the EVAL-ADXL362Z-DB was developed for the Renesas RL78/G13 microcontroller using the Renesas Electronics CubeSuite+ environment. The links below offer downloads and installation instructions for these tools:

Getting Started

Using the Board

Firmware Options

Analog Devices has developed firmware for implementing the following functions via the EVAL-ADXL362Z-DB:

  • Datalogger and GUI (includes real-time data viewer and tilt sensor): logs data onto (supplied) microSD card. ZIP (includes .hex firmware and .exe GUI)
  • Tilt Sensor: shows tilt measurement on E-Ink display. HEX
  • Ultralow Power Motion switch: turns display icons on or off based on presence or absence of motion. HEX
  • Pedometer & fall detector coming soon

Reconfiguring the Board

The EVAL-ADXL362Z-DB firmware can be rewritten using the Renesas Flash Programmer (click here for download links). Instructions for rewriting the firmware are as follows:

  1. Set jumpers: J6, J7, J8, and J9 (between the USB connector and the switch on the DB board) to the 1-2 position. Set jumper J2 to the 2-3 position for USB power.


    :!: We know the jumpers are a pain and we apologize in advance.

    Jumper Position
    J2 1 2 3
    J6 1 2 3
    J7 1 2 3
    J8 1 2 3
    J9 1 2 3
  2. Launch Renesas Flash Programmer V1.03 (download here)
  3. Create new workspace
  4. Input RL78/G13 in filter, select R5F100LJ, input workspace name as below.
  5. Next and select the corresponding COM port for the board.
  6. Next and browse to the desired .hex file
  7. Click “Start”
  8. Configure J6-J9 in position 2-3 for virtual UART
