The RL78/G1C USB Charger Solution Kit (R0K578G1CD010BR) from Renesas Electronics is an evaluation kit containing an RL78/G1C microcontroller with built-in USB host/peripheral function, a charge control IC, serial EEPROM, a character LCD, ambient light and temperature sensors, and more.
Using this kit, development and evaluation of rapid-charging products that use the USB Battery Charging Specification Revision 1.2 (USB BC 1.2) and USB application products can be streamlined.
The kit unlocks development and evaluation of smartphone-USB connectivity operations (auxiliary battery, data transfer), PC-USB connectivity operations (rapid charging, USB mouse, USB storage) and standalone operation (ambient light/temperature sensors, measurement result record, clock). It exploits the power of the RL78/G1C to transfer identification data and control charging of a nickel-hydrogen battery supplied with the kit.
