32-bit MCU with Arm® Cortex®-M Core
RENESAS RA FAMILY
The Renesas RA Family is a new 32-bit MCU family built on the Arm® Cortex®-M core architecture.
Offering a wide range of performance and features, the Renesas RA Family meet the scalability, power
consumption and performance needs of nearly any embedded systems end-product.
Delivering the Ultimate Promise of IoT with Software Flexibility
Strong Security Arm Core
Secure Crypto Engine (SCE) IP
An extra layer of embedded hardware security providing tamper detection
and resistance to side-channel attacks
All built on top of Arm’s v8-M TrustZon
Based on Arms next-generation Cortex-M23/M33 processor cores, and
Cortex-M4 core
Flexible Software Solution Best-in-Class Peripheral IP
Supported by an open and exible ecosystem concept, the Flexible
Software Package (FSP) uses FreeRTOS as a base
Can be replaced and expanded by any other RTOS or middleware
