Description

GR-MANGO is the Gadget Renesas board for the Renesas RZ Family's RZ/A2M group of microprocessor (MPU) products. The layout is compatible with Raspberry Pi 4, GR-MANGO is an Arm® Mbed™ enabled development platform. Additionally, the Dynamically Reconfigurable Processor (DRP) equipped in the RZ/A2M can perform image processing that is 10 times faster than conventional CPU processing. The library for DRP enables power-saving and high-speed processing of camera images.

Also, GR-MANGO supports real-time OSs (FreeRTOS, Azure RTOS) and various libraries (SSL/TLS, OTA, MQTT, TCP/IP, etc.) for IoT devices provided by major cloud vendors such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft.

In addition, it is equipped with input/output interfaces such as HDMI, audio, Ethernet, USB, and CAN, and can realize high-level IoT systems and embedded AI.
