Low-power Industrial Ethernet Communication Chips from Renesas
Renesas has revealed the introduction of the new R-IN32M3 series of industrial Ethernet communication chips with support for multiple communication protocols in response to the rapid adoption of industrial Ethernet communication technology. Samples of the first products in R-IN32M3 series, the R-IN32M3-CL and R-IN32M3-EC, will be available in January 2013. Mass production of the R-IN32M3 series is scheduled to begin in June 2013 and is expected t...
Renesas Enhances RX MCU Family Scalability for High-performance Motor Control
Renesas today announced the expansion of the lineup of the RX63T group of microcontrollers. The new RX63T MCUs have higher pin counts and larger memory versions. They also expand the functions that they feature, such as USB 2.0, a 10-bit D/A converter, and faster ADC with a minimum conversion time of 0.5 microseconds, and increase the number of channels of timers and serial I/Fs.
IAR Systems introduces new product edition for the smaller memory versions of Renesas RX MCUs
IAR Systems today announced the availability of a new product edition tailored for small applications development using IAR Embedded Workbench for RX. The Baseline edition is targeted at developers working with smaller memory Renesas RX MCUs and is offered at a price substantially reduced from that of the full edition.
CC-Link widens partner product development options, reduces time to market
Product time-to-market for the CC-Link IE Field gigabit open industrial Ethernet standard will now be even shorter than ever before, following the announcement of support for the network by two major semiconductor industry players. Renesas and Altima will both showcase solutions for CC-Link IE Field at the SPS/IPC/Drives 2012 fair in Nuremberg, Germany on the CC-Link Partner Association booth (6-122).
Cadence's Encounter RTL Compiler adopted by Renesas Micro Systems
Cadence Design Systems announced today that Renesas Micro Systems has adopted the Cadence Encounter RTL Compiler for synthesis, highlighting a utilization improvement of 15 percent, area reduction of 8.4 percent, quick turnaround time, and cost reduction for complex ASIC designs.
Renesas Electronics Announces Industry's First Low-Power 16-bit Microcontrollers with Integrated
Renesas Electronics today announced the release of the RL78/G1C Group of microcontrollers (MCUs), which are the industry's first 16-bit MCUs that conform to the USB Battery Charging Specification, Revision 1.2 and provide USB host/function interfaces.
Renesas expands RX MCUs with RX63T microcontroller family
Renesas have announced the expansion of the lineup of the RX63T group of microcontrollers. The new RX63T MCUs have higher pin counts and larger memory versions. They also expand the functions that they feature, such as USB 2.0, a 10-bit D/A converter, and faster ADC with a minimum conversion time of 0.5 microseconds (µs), and increase the number of channels of timers and serial I/Fs.
Renesas Expand RL78 Family MCUs with LCD Controller
Renesas has today revealed the introduction of the RL78/L13 Group of low-power microcontrollers with on-chip LCD controller offering up-to 376 segment drive capability in an 80-pin package. These new MCUs are optimal for consumer, health and industrial equipment that are equipped with an LCD panel.
Control and connectivity considerations in the design of smart meters by Jonathan Page, MSC Gleichmann - Part 2
As we saw in the first part of this series of articles, the replacement of traditional electricity, gas, water and other meters with smart meters is being driven by utility companies and governments for a variety of reasons. Lying behind this is the ‘ideal’ of conserving our use of natural resources through the intelligence that comes from having more immediate access to data along with the means to apply appropriate controls.
Renesas achieve PRIME certification for OFDM powerline communication platform
Renesas have announced today that it has received PRIME Alliance certification for its software-configurable OFDM powerline communication platform. The certification comes less than ten months from development start and marks a significant milestone both towards extending Renesas’ solution capability as a leading supplier to the energy industry, and towards the adoption of PRIME as a global communications standard for smart grid.
