1. Introduction
The Renesas Peripheral Driver Library (RPDL) is a unified API for controlling the peripheral modules on the
microcontrollers made by Renesas Electronics.
Figure 1-1: System configuration, with all peripherals supported by RPDL
Figure 1-2: System configuration, with middleware taking direct control of some peripherals
The library is packaged as:
a) A binary file containing all of the peripheral driver functions,
b) Header files containing the information that the user needs to call any of the functions from their own
application code and
c) Interrupt handlers supplied as source code.
For best use of this library, it is required that the user will have the following documents as a minimum:
i. The schematic
ii. The MCU hardware manual
iii. This RPDL API User’s manual
The binary file is produced using the Renesas RX C compiler. It should be usable by another linker that
conforms to the Renesas Application Binary Interface.
RPDL has not been designed to be compatible for use with an RTOS.
The coding standards and naming conventions are specified by Renesas.
