New Entry-Level MPUs Enhances Scalability of RZ/G2 Lineup
TOKYO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#AI–Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced the expansion of its RZ/G2 general-purpose 64-bit microprocessors (MPUs), delivering improved AI processing for a wide range of applications. The expanded product lineup includes three new entry-level MPU models built around the latest Arm
® Cortex
®-A55 core: The RZ/G2L, RZ/G2LC, and RZ/G2UL. Together with the existing mid- to high-end RZ/G2E, RZ/G2N, RZ/G2M, and RZ/G2H MPUs, the total of seven RZ/G2 MPUs provide scalability from entry-level to high-end design.
Renesas looks to improve AI processing with Cortex-A55 MCU
Improving AI processing in 64bit general purpose MCUs is the aim Renesas with three new members of its RZ/G2 MCU family.
The entry-level models are built around the Arm Cortex-A55 core.
According to Renesas, the Cortex-A55 CPU core delivers approximately 20% improved processing performance compared with the earlier Cortex-A53 core, and is approximately six times faster “in essential processing for AI applications”. The MCUs also have camera input interfaces, a 3D graphics engine and a video codec, providing support for human-machine interface applications such as multimedia processing, GUI rendering and AI image processing.
