Chapter 3. Power Supply
3.1. Requirements
This RSK operates from a 5V power supply.
A diode provides reverse polarity protection only if a current limiting power supply is used.
All RSK boards are supplied with an E10A debugger.
All RSK boards have an optional centre positive supply connector using a 2.0mm barrel power jack.
Warning
The RSK is neither under nor over voltage protected. Use a centre positive supply for this board.
3.2. Power – Up Behaviour
When the RSK is purchased the RSK board has the ‘Release’ or stand alone code from the example tutorial code pre-programmed into the
Renesas microcontroller. On powering up the board the user LEDs will start to flash. After 200 flashes, or after pressing a switch the LEDs
will flash at a rate controlled by the potentiometer.
