2. Hardware overview
The Motor Control kit is a single board inverter, based on the new RX series microcontroller RX62T. The hardware
includes a low-voltage MOSFETs power stage, and a communication stage.
The ordering part name of the kit is: YROTATE-IT-RX62T. The latest updates of the kit material are available on the

To obtain the maximum flexibility, the reference board includes:
•
A complete 3-phase inverter on-board with a low voltage motor, so it becomes easy to test the powerful
sensorless algorithm on the RX62T
•
USB communication with the PC via a H8S2212 microcontroller
•
Connectors for hall sensors and encoder connections
•
Compatibility with the existing Motor Control Reference Platforms MCRP05/06 power stage available at
Renesas.
To achieve these aims, an independent communication stage was implemented, based on the Renesas
microcontroller H8S2212, which performs the USB to serial conversion.
The two serial lines RX and TX are fully insulated
