Embedded Target for Renesas CS+

The CS+ integrated development environment provides simplicity, security, and ease of use in developing software through iterative cycles of editing, building, and debugging. You can use the basic software tools for developing software for Renesas MCUs immediately after the initial installation. CS+ is also compatible with Renesas hardware tools including the E1 on-chip debugging emulator (sold separately), which facilitates advanced debugging.

The compiler package for Renesas MCUs produces object code optimized for these MCUs. CS+ simulator with variants for Renesas MCUs, provide instruction set simulator capabilities so developers can test their algorithms, in their final compiled form with simulated hardware.

Embedded Target for Renesas CS+ provides a co-simulation link between Simulink and either the CS+ simulator or actual target hardware. Engineers can develop controller models in Simulink, automatically generate production quality code with Embedded Coder, which is then compiled for the specific Renesas MCU. The compiled code can then be executed in the CS+ simulator (or real hardware) and simulated with the plant model running in Simulink. This allows engineers to perform processor-in-the-loop testing of their algorithms and validate their algorithms with executable code targeting the production MCU.

Embedded Target for Renesas CS+ provides the co-simulation link as an S-function block in Simulink. This S-function provides an interface to the communication link to the instruction set simulator or actual target hardware. Developers can simply replace the controller model from their systems with the PIL Block from ECPILS to execute cooperative simulation with Simulink.

Renesas also provides the Embedded Target for RH850 Multicore for products of the RH850 MCU families.
