- Users using versions 4.03.11 and 4.03.12 must upgrade.
It has been discovered that in version 4.03.11, the countermeasure for using VDD:3.3V in the 38Dx group below is not applied to some product types.
It has been discovered that a program error occurs when writing to the 8-bit QzROM in version 4.03.12.
*The firmware version of the EFP-RC can be displayed by pressing the "←" key while the EFP-RC menu is displayed.
- Added MCU type 36 R8C/LX-SLP
- Modified QzROM writing routine
A phenomenon was found where writing failures occurred when VDD was set below 3.3V during writing to the 38Dx group, so the writing routine was modified. Additionally, this modification reduces the writing speed to approximately 2/3 of the original speed.
