Low-power MCUs simplify sensorless BLDC motor control
Renesas Electronics hasannounced the RL78/G1F Group of multi-function MCUs, adding 20 members to its low-power RL78 family. Featuring enhanced peripheral functions and compatibility across the RL78/G1x Series of MCUs, the devices simplify sensorless BLDC motor control and deliver precision operation at faster rotational speeds with high accuracy for energy-efficient home appliances and electric power tools.
Dev kit speeds development of Renesas MCUs
Synopsys has expanded its Virtualizer Development Kit (VDK) portfolio for Renesas' RH850 MCU with a virtual prototype for the RH850/P1x series targeting chassis ECUs. The latest virtual prototype builds upon the existing VDK for Renesas RH850 MCUs, which includes support for the F1x, E1x and C1x series MCUs.
32-bit MCUs shipments forecast to grow at a rate of 10%
According to findings from the 2015 edition of Semicast’s study of 32-bit MCUs, revenues are forecast to grow at a rate of more than 10% a year from 2014 to 2020. Measured in units, Semicast Research forecasts the market to grow even faster, at more than 20% a year over the same period, with annual shipments heading towards 18bn in 2020.
