Celebrate the RX Family's 10th Anniversary
RX turns 10! Renesas celebrates this major milestone highlighting major achievements – industry-leading 32-bit proprietary core MCU (highest performance 5.82 CoreMark/MHz in this class) with more than 600 million units shipped since launched. We continue to expand RX 32-bit MCU lineup and solutions with top class power efficiency and good system cost performance ratio, aligning with the growing market. Together with the next-generation RX core which has higher performance with well-balanced power efficiency, RX MCU will support the realization of a future cloud society and a human-robot society based on timely release of robust security technology. We are celebrating throughout 2020 by showcasing our most innovative products and solutions in key applications, starting with wireless connectivity that is increasingly important in the digital age. Thank you for sharing the RX journey with us; we are excited for more to come!

Autonomous Security
With the rapid advances in technology, security is essential for both industrial and consumer products. Autonomous security is required to protect important data such as software and keys from security threats throughout the product lifecycle (development environment, secure provisioning, key management, secure operation and secure firmware update). Implement security effectively by using the Renesas MCUs, which reside in the core of IoT devices. Learn more about RX Security Solutions now.
