4.2 A Toolkit Expansion
The SPB Demonstration Platform is a new addition to the support tools that Renesas provides. It
does not replace any existing tool, and complements the various popular Renesas Starter Kits
(RSKs). Rather, it is an innovative product for introducing new users to the values and benefits of
the Renesas solutions for embedded systems. Figure 4 provides some perspective on the position
the SPB holds relative to other support tools.

5. Conclusion
The SPB offers much more functionality than that of an evaluation board, but doesn’t have
anywhere near as much cost and complexity as a development board. It’s particularly effective
because it both demonstrates software development tools to the user in an engaging way, and lets
the user perform their own application-specific evaluation.
The Renesas SPB Demonstration Platform gives engineers a unique tool for software and
hardware evaluation platform — a tool designed to deliver long-term value and benefits.
Customers can use it now and then download new features as they become available to enhance
their level of knowledge and understanding of various aspects of embedded system design and
debug.
