Renesas has expanded its 32-bit RA Family of microcontrollers (MCUs) with a new Group based on the latest Arm Cortex-M33 core.

They are in stock at Anglia Components.

The new 100-MHz RA4E1 Group has what is said to be best-in-class power consumption balanced with high performance and optimised feature integration.

It enables fast design cycles and easy upgrades to other RA Family devices.

The RA4E1 MCUs are the first Entry-Line Group in the 100-MHz RA4 Series. The group includes four different parts, spanning from 48-pin to 64-pin packages, and from 256kB to 512kB of flash memory along with 128kB of SRAM.

These devices use only 60µA / MHz while executing from Flash at 100MHz.

They deliver an optimised combination of innovative peripherals, connectivity options and system cost saving features. The MCUs are ideal for cost-sensitive applications and other systems requiring an optimal combination of performance and low power consumption.

The RA4E1 is built on a highly efficient 40nm process and is supported by an open and flexible ecosystem concept—the Flexible Software Package (FSP) —and is the perfect entry point into the RA Family of microcontrollers.

It is suitable for entry IoT applications requiring value optimized feature and connectivity integration, total system cost reduction and an optimized mixture of high performance with 100 MHz Cortex-M33 Core in combination with lowest active power consumption down to 81µA/MHz running the CoreMark algorithm from Flash.
