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.
