RZ/A2M MPUs with DRP Technology
The RZ/A2M MPUs feature Renesas’ proprietary Dynamically Reconfigurable Processor (DRP) technology that can accelerate image processing 10X or more and was winner of Electronic Products’ 2018 Product of the Year Award. RZ/A2M innovation also includes 4 MB of on-chip SRAM, MIPI camera interface, a two-channel Ethernet interface, and hardware security features for crypto acceleration and establishing a Root of Trust.
RZ/G2 64-bit MPUs
The RZ/G2 64-bit Arm® Cortex®-A57 and Cortex®-A53-based MPUs deliver industry-leading high performance, advanced graphics capabilities, and high-bandwidth ECC memory interfaces with super long-term Linux support.
RZ/A MPUs – The Power of an MPU, the Simplicity of an MCU
The RZ/A MPUs combine a 32-bit Arm® Corex® A9 CPU with up to 10 MB of on-chip SRAM and ability to execute code in-place (XIP) from QSPI flash which greatly simplifies board design and reduces system cost. Coupled with their high-bandwidth 128-bit wide parallel data bus, the RZ/A MPUs support faster graphics, digital audio signal processing, device control, and more.
