MUNICH, Germany and TOKYO, Japan ― Renesas Electronics announced the RAA270205 4x4-channel, 76-81GHz high-definition transceiver, a MMIC (monolithic microwave integrated circuit) transceiver designed for imaging radar, long-range forward-looking radar, 4D radar, and corner and central-processing radar architectures commonly known as  “satellite” automotive radar systems.

MUNICH, GERMANY & TOKYO, JAPAN. Renesas Electronics Corporation is expanding its low-power WAN product line as part of its strategy to deliver connectivity devices used for smart cities, smart homes, medical devices and industrial applications. The RYZ024A supports Cat-M1 and NB-IoT internet connectivity independent of a gateway, consuming 1µA (microamp) in power savings mode. The RYZ024A supports extended discontinuous reception (eDRX) with an extended voltage range of 2.2V to 5.5V, making it suitable for battery-powered applications.

OTTAWA, Canada – GaN Systems announced that the company’s power transistors are now powering Renesas Electronics’ new automotive 48V/12V Bidirectional DC/DC Converter to provide power density improvements. Renesas’ converter utilizes GaN Systems’ GS61008P, a 100V enhancement mode GaN-on-silicon power transistor designed to enable a 46% reduction in system size.

TOKYO-- Renesas Electronics Corporation announced that its 8A34001 System Synchronizer for IEEE 1588 has been integrated in the AMD Zynq® UltraScale+™ RFSoC DFE ZCU670 Evaluation Kit and reference design for 5G New Radio (5G NR).

The embedded community has been talking a lot about AI at the Edge. Apparently, it’s not just talk, as Renesas recently acquired Reality AI. That acquisition lets them leverage a large customer base as well as provides access to what the company is calling a "leading-edge toolset and series of AI models."

TOKYO, Japan. Renesas Electronics introduced the R9A02G020, a 32MHz, 32-bit CPU core industrial first plug-and-play RISC-V MCU, for improved motor control.

IAR Systems announced the latest version of the complete development toolchain IAR Embedded Workbench® for Arm v. 9.30, which fully supports the Renesas’ RZ/T2 and RZ/N2 series MPUs, based on Arm® Cortex®-R52.
