Introduction
The RH850 family SENT application board is a part of the RH850 Evaluation
Platform and serves as a simple and easy to use platform for evaluating the
features and performance of Renesas Electronics 32-bit RH850 family
microcontrollers with build in SENT I/F (RSENT) as well as the powerful Signal
Conditioner IC ZSSC4161D.
This extension board is especially designed to be used with the following PCBs:

V2
RH850/F1KM-S1 Starter Kit V3
But it also can be used in combination with other Renesas Electronics evaluation
tools like the Piggy Back boards or the different RH850 Family Starter Kit boards.
Main features:
• Build in Signal Conditioner IC ZSSC4161D
• Build in sensor dummy circuit which can be disconnected by jumper settings
• Test point for “SENT DATA”
• Common ground connector for measurement or testing purposes
• Connector for different external sensor circuits
• Four different error types can be simulated by dedicated buttons or jumpers
• Sub-D connector for easy interconnection with the RH850/F1KM-S1 Starter
Kits V3 and the RH850/X2X Mother Board
• The necessary cable for this connection is included in the package
The application board is optimized to work in combination with the RH850/F1KM-
S1 Starter Kit V3 and the related SENT Sample Software, which are described in
the following Application Note.
