The CPU board has an EtherCAT slave controller (ESC) and is connected to the ESC module of the microprocessor.
External Bus The RZ/T2M features an external data bus, which is connected to various devices on the CPU board. Details of the devices connected to the external data bus are listed in Table 5-23 below. Further details of the devices connected to the external bus can be found in the board schematics.
Renesas Starter Kit+ for RZ/T2M User Circuitry 5.18 C Bus (Inter-IC Bus) The RZ/T2M features three I C (Inter-IC Bus) interface modules. Channel 0 of the IIC is connected to a 16Kbit EEPROM. Channel 0 of the IIC is also multiplexed with I C for EtherCAT and can also be used as EEPROM for EtherCAT.
When modifying a link resistor, always check the related option links to ensure there is no possible signal contention or short circuits. Because many of the MPU’s pins are multiplexed, some of the peripherals must be used exclusively. Refer to the RZ/T2M Group User’s Manual: Hardware and CPU board schematics for further information. Jumper Settings Three types of jumpers are provided on the CPU board.
