Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today laid out plans for its next-generation system on chips (SoCs) and microcontrollers (MCUs) targeting all major applications across the automotive digital domain.

Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today introduced the world’s most powerful microcontrollers (MCUs), delivering breakthrough performance of over 3000 CoreMark points, and fully deterministic, low latency, real-time operation that satisfies customers’ most demanding application needs. The new RA8 Series MCUs are the industry’s first to implement the Arm® Cortex®-M85 processor, enabling the new devices to deliver industry-leading 6.39 CoreMark/MHz1 performance. This level of performance will allow system designers to use the RA MCUs in applications that previously required microprocessors (MPUs). The new series is part of Renesas’ popular RA Family of MCUs based on Arm Cortex processors. Existing designs built for other RA devices can easily be ported to the new RA8 MCUs.
