RZ/A2M is suitable for applications using HMI (Human Machine Interface), among others, cameras. It corresponds to the MIPI camera interface which is widely used in mobile devices and incorporates DRP (Dynamically Reconfigurable Processor) which processes the input image at high speed. In addition to installing two Ethernet channels, security is enhanced by a cryptographic hardware accelerator. The network connection becomes safe and secure, and it can be applied to image recognition application of a wide range of systems from home electronics to industrial equipment.

| IBIS/BSDL | IBIS standard simulation data is required for high-speed board design and can be used to run simulations to examine and troubleshoot issues such as waveform reflection, ringing, and so on, before producing the actual board. BSDL is a data input format supported by most IEEE 1149.1 (JTAG)-compliant tools. The automatic test pattern generation (ATPG) and automatic test equipment functions of these tools facilitate testing. |
