Renesas and Technologie Management Gruppe have announced a collaboration to provide comprehensive software support for Renesas' multi-protocol industrial Ethernet solutions. Implementing the Molex PROFINET and EtherNet/IP stacks on the Renesas Industrial Network R-IN devices, TMG offers easy access to these technologies with an accelerated time-to-market.

Five times more efficient in Ethernet packet processing, the Renesas R-IN32M3 multi-protocol industrial Ethernet solutions utilise a revolutionary hardware accelerator design and reduce overall power consumption by 50%. Limiting the impact on overall power dissipation and offering the most robust implementation, EtherCAT and CC-Link IE real-time protocols are implemented in hardware.

The ARM Cortex M3 processor with 1.3MB embedded RAM runs the software based protocols such as EtherNet/IP, PROFINET RT, and Modbus TCP. Highly-integrated, the R-IN devices include Ethernet PHYs, various fieldbus interfaces and multiple peripheral modules.

Providing reliable and robust performance, the Molex software stack solutions are suitable for complex industrial networks in a wide range of advanced manufacturing and automation applications. Molex PROFINET and EtherNet/IP SDKs allow sensor, actuator and PLC manufacturers to efficiently integrate PROFINET and EtherNet/IP into their products.

A Molex technology partner, TMG has vast experience integrating Molex technologies onto a variety of devices, offering comprehensive and high quality implementations of industrial Ethernet technologies.
