中文|[English](README.md)
|
||
|
||
## Introduction
|
||
|
||
Prepare for an exhilarating journey into the realm of the EK-RA8M1 development board! This guide is your treasure map, leading you to a trove of knowledge about the Board Support Package (BSP).

## Instructions for Use
|
||
|
||
The instructions for use are divided into the following two sections:
|
||
|
||
• Quick Start
|
||
|
||
This section is a user guide for newcomers to RT-Thread. By following simple steps, you can run the RT-Thread operating system on this development board and see the experimental results.
|
||
|
||
• Advanced Use
|
||
|
||
This section is for developers who want to enable more development board resources on the RT-Thread operating system. By using the ENV tool to configure the BSP, you can enable more on-board resources and achieve more advanced functions.
|
||
|
||
### Quick Start
|
||
|
||
This BSP currently only provides an MDK5 project. The following tutorial takes the MDK5 development environment as an example to introduce how to run the system.
|
||
|
||
**Compile and Download**
|
||
|
||
• Compile: Double-click the **project.uvprojx** file to open the MDK5 project and compile the program.
|
||
|
||
• Download: Click the Debug button in MDK to download and debug
|
||
|
||
**Running results**
|
||
|
||
After the program is downloaded successfully, the system will automatically run and print system information.
|
||
|
||
Connect the corresponding serial port of the development board to the PC, open the corresponding serial port (115200-8-1-N) in the terminal tool, reset the device, and you can see RT-Thread’s output information. Enter the help command can view the commands supported by the system.

||
|
||

|
||

initialize finsh_system_init:0 done
|
||
|
||
Hello RT-Thread!
|
||
msh >
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Entry function**
|
||
|
||
The entry function of the application layer is in **bsp\renesas\ra8m1-ek\src\hal_entry.c** in `void hal_entry(void)`. Source files that you created can be placed directly in the src directory.
|
||
|
||
```c
|
||
void hal_entry(void)
|
||
{
|
||
rt_kprintf("\nHello RT-Thread!\n");
|
||
|
||
while (1)
|
||
{
|
||
rt_pin_write(LED3_PIN, PIN_HIGH);
|
||
rt_thread_mdelay(500);
|
||
rt_pin_write(LED3_PIN, PIN_LOW);
|
||
rt_thread_mdelay(500);
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||

**ENV Configuration**
|
||
|
||
• How to use the ENV tool: [RT-Thread env tool user manual](https://www.rt-thread.io/document/site/programming-manual/env/env/).
|
||
|
||
This BSP only enables the function of UART9 by default. If you're looking for more advanced functions such as components and software packages, ENV tool for configuration is available.
|
||
|
||
The steps are as follows:
|
||
|
||
1. Open the env tool under bsp.
|
||
2. Enter the `menuconfig` command to configure the project, and save and exit after configuration.
|
||
3. Enter the `pkgs --update` command to update the software package.
|
||
4. Enter the `scons --target=mdk5` command to regenerate the project.
|
||
|
||
**FSP Configuration**
|
||
|
||
* How to Use FSP: [Configuring Peripheral Drivers for RA Series Using FSP](https://www.rt-thread.org/document/site/#/rt-thread-version/rt-thread-standard/tutorial/make-bsp/renesas-ra/RA系列使用FSP配置外设驱动?id=ra系列使用-fsp-配置外设驱动)
|
||
|
||
The current repository's BSP is configured with the minimum footprint enabled by default. Users can enable peripheral configurations through the following steps:
|
||
|
||
1. Open the `env` tool in the BSP directory and use the `scons --target=mdk5` command to generate an MDK project.
|
||
2. Open the `project.uvprojx` file in the BSP directory, select the `Software Components` configuration in the top navigation bar, and open the configuration button next to `RA Configuration` under `Flex Software`. This operation will automatically detect the installed FSP version on the current computer. After selecting the specified version, enter FSP.
|
||

|
||
3. Upon entering FSP, pre-configured peripherals are already present. Click the `Generate Project Content` button to generate the required driver files.

|
||
4. Return to `env`, enable the necessary peripheral configurations, save, and exit.
