Industrial Ethernet Gateway and Sensor System

Overview

Description

The Renesas Ethernet system offers quick-start designs to add industrial Ethernet connectivity to sensors and embedded devices. It supports pre-certified PROFINET®, EtherNet/IP™, and EtherCAT® protocols, reducing development time and complexity. This flexible platform includes a gateway for connecting Modbus RTU/TCP devices to modern Ethernet networks and a sensor module for direct Ethernet integration. Developers can choose between the certified multiprotocol industrial Ethernet module, ideal for quick integration, or the high-performance industrial Ethernet MPU in a system on module (SoM), which eliminates the need for a separate MCU and offers enhanced processing capabilities.

System Benefits​:

  • Provides out-of-the-box support for PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and EtherCAT.
  • Includes a pre-programmed Ethernet module for rapid development.
  • Features integrated dual-port RJ45 and an industrial Ethernet switch.
  • Offers a gateway design to bridge Modbus RTU/TCP to industrial Ethernet.
  • Enables direct Ethernet-connected sensors with the sensor design.
  • The RZ/N2L SoM supports standalone operation with custom peripherals.
