Preface
Thank you for purchasing this user system interface cable (HS2238ECN61H) for the Renesas’s
original microcomputer H8S/2237, H8S/2238R series.
The HS2238ECN61H is a user system interface cable that connects an H8S/2633 series E6000
emulator (HS2633REPI61H or HS2633EPI61H; hereinafter referred to as the emulator) to the IC
socket for a TFP-100G package for the H8S/2237, H8S/2238R series MCU on the user system.

Section 2 Connection Procedures
2.1 Connecting User System Interface Cable to Emulator Station
WARNING
Always switch OFF the user system and the emulator
product before the USER SYSTEM INTERFACE CABLE is
connected to or removed from any part. Before connecting,
make sure that pin 1 on both sides are correctly aligned.
Failure to do so will damage the user system and the
emulator product or will result in PERSONAL INJURY. The
USER PROGRAM will be LOST.
To connect the cable body to the emulator station, make sure the user system and emulator station
are turned off.

2.2 Connecting User System Interface Cable to User System
WARNING
Always switch OFF the user system and the emulator
product before the USER SYSTEM INTERFACE CABLE is
connected to or removed from any part. Before connecting,
make sure that pin 1 on both sides are correctly aligned.
Failure to do so will damage the user system and the
emulator product or will result in PERSONAL INJURY. The
USER PROGRAM will be LOST.
To connect the cable head to the user system, follow the instructions below.

2.2.1 Installing IC Socket
1. Confirming the location of IC socket
5
UTIONCA
After confirming the location of pin 1 on the IC socket,
apply epoxy resin adhesive to the end of the four projections
at the bottom of the IC socket, and fasten it to the user
system.
Use the guide pins provided to determine where to install the IC socket, as shown in figure 3.

2. Solder the IC socket for a TFP-100G package to the user system.
CAUTION
Be sure to completely solder the leads so that the solder
slops gently over the leads and forms solder fillets. (Use
slightly more solder than the MCU.)

2.2.2 Inserting Cable Head
6
UTIONCA
Check the location of pin 1 before inserting.
Align pin 1 on the IC socket for a TFP-100G package on the user system with pin 1 on the user
system interface cable head, and insert the user systeminterface cable head into the IC socket on the
user system, as shown in figure 4.
2.2.3 Fastening Cable Head
CAUTION
1. Check the location of pin 1 before inserting.
2. Use the screwdriver provided for tightening screws.
3. The tightening torque must be 0.054 N•m or less.
If the applied torque cannot be accurately measured,
stop tightening when the force required to turn the screw
becomes significantly greater than that needed when first
tightening. If a screw is tightened too much, the screw
head may break or an IC socket contact error may be
caused by a crack in the IC socket solder.
4. If the MCU does not operate correctly, cracks might have
occurred in the solder. Check conduction with a tester
and re-solder the IC socket if necessary.

Fasten the user system interface cable head to the IC socket for a TFP-100G package on the user
system with the four screws (M2 x10 mm) provided. Each screw should be tightened a little at a
time,alternating betweenscrews on opposing corners. Take special care, such as manually securing
the IC socket soldered area, to prevent the soldered IC socket from being damaged by
overtightening the screws or twisting the components.
