1. Board Overview
The FPB-RA2E1, a Fast Prototyping Board for the RA2E1 MCU Group, enables users to seamlessly
evaluate the features of the RA2E1 MCU group and develop embedded systems applications using Flexible
Software Package (FSP) and the e
2
studio IDE. Users can use on-board features along with their choice of
popular ecosystems add-ons to bring their big ideas to life.
The key features of the FPB-RA2E1 board are categorized in two groups (consistent with the architecture of
the board) as follows:
MCU Native Pin Access
• R7FA2E1A92DFM MCU (referred to as RA MCU)
• 48 MHz, Arm
®
Cortex
®
-M23 core
• 128 KB Code Flash, 4 KB Data Flash, 16 KB SRAM
• 64-pin, LFQFP package
• Native pin access through 2 x 32-pin male headers
• MCU current measurement point for precision current consumption measurement
• Multiple clock sources - Low-precision (~1%) clocks are available internal to the RA MCU. RA MCU
oscillator and sub-clock oscillator crystals, providing precision 20.000 MHz and 32,768 Hz reference
clocks can be fitted to the board
System Control and Ecosystem Access
• Two 5 V input sources
 USB (Debug, Full Speed)
 External power supply (using 2-pin header [not fitted])
• Built-in E2 Emulator On-Board programmer/debugger (SWD)
• User LEDs and buttons
 Two User LEDs (green)
 Power LED (green) indicating availability of regulated power
 Debug LED (green) indicating the debug connection
 One User button
 One Reset button
• Two popular ecosystem expansions
 Two Digilent Pmod
TM
(SPI, UART) connectors
 Arduino
TM
(Uno R3) connector
• MCU boot configuration jumper
