Overview
Description
The RZ/V2H AI MPU evaluation kit (RTK0EF0168C04000BJ) is used to evaluate Renesas' RZ/V2H quad-core vision AI MPU. The kit includes a CPU board and an expansion (EXP) board. It supports RZ/V2H standard software packages and enables easy implementation of software development tasks such as low power consumption AI inference and video streaming. Additionally, this evaluation kit supports optional functions like the image signal processor (ISP), 3D graphics engine (GE3D), and Trusted Secure IP.
