As far as I know the only reference boards are from Hitachi:
  ftp://ftp.hitachi.com/netshare/capp01/Cayman/
I have one, through SuperH, but whether they are 'available' I don't know.

ST50 is ST's name for parts with an SH5 core. Currently there are none,
all SH5 based parts have been fabed by Hitachi.
