Renesas Technology Announces RX610 First RX Family Microcontrollers for Embedded Systems Markets

The RX610 is the first RX Family microcontroller (MCU) products built around the new RX CPU that is destined to become the mainstay of the company’s business in serving global embedded systems markets. The RX CPU implements a complex instruction set computer (CISC) architecture that integrates and significantly extends the capabilities of Renesas’ existing 16-bit and 32-bit MCU products, while providing compatibility that protects customer designs that use existing Renesas MCUs. The eight devices in the 32-bit RX610 Group are advanced 32-bit solutions for high-end office equipment, digital consumer products and similar applications that must run large-scale programs rapidly while achieving high performance levels. RX610 MCUs have up to 2MB of on-chip flash memory that can be accessed at 100 MHz in a single clock cycle to maximize code execution. They also provide 32 KB of data flash memory with a background operation (BGO) function that enables data to be written at the same time a program is executing…
