Renesas launches first-generation 32-bit RISC-V CPU core

 


【Lansheng Technology News】Renesas Electronics recently announced the successful design, testing and launch of a 32-bit CPU core based on the open standard RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA). As the first manufacturer in the industry to independently develop CPU cores for the 32-bit general-purpose RISC-V market, Renesas has created an open and flexible platform for the Internet of Things, consumer electronics, healthcare and industrial systems.


The new RISC-V CPU core will expand Renesas’ existing 32-bit microcontroller (MCU) IP product lineup, including the proprietary RX product family and the RA product family based on the Arm® Cortex®-M architecture.


RISC-V is an open ISA that is rapidly gaining popularity in the semiconductor industry because of its flexibility, scalability, high energy efficiency, and open ecosystem. Currently, many MCU suppliers have established joint investment alliances to accelerate the development of RISC-V products, and Renesas has successfully independently developed a new RISC-V core.


This versatile CPU can serve as a main application controller or as an auxiliary core in SoCs, on-chip subsystems, or even deeply embedded ASSPs. Following its previous launch of 32-bit voice control and motor control ASSP products and the RZ/Five 64-bit general-purpose microprocessor (MPU) based on a CPU core developed by Andes Technology Corp., Renesas has become a leader in the emerging RISC-V market .


Renesas RISC-V CPU's CoreMark/MHz performance reaches an astonishing 3.27, far exceeding similar architectures in the industry, and includes extensions that can improve performance while reducing code volume.


Renesas is providing samples based on the new core to some customers, and plans to launch the first RISC-V-based MCU and related development tools in the first quarter of 2024. Details of the new MCU products will also be announced at that time.

What are the Benefits of Power Optimizers?

Image
  Power optimizer for solar panels is a DC/DC converter that is connected to each solar panel in the PV system, turning them into smart modules. By constantly monitoring the maximum production capacity of each individual solar module, optimizers can increase your PV plant energy production – potentially increasing revenue and shortening system payback time. Simply put, the main benefit of power optimizer is that it maximizes the performance of each panel individually. What are the benefits of power optimizers and why are they needed? When installing solar panels, the panels are connected into groups or arrays. In the case of roof-mounted and in-roof panels, there are usually 12-20 solar panels in one group. If the productivity of one of these panels decreases (shadows from trees and clouds, dust, bird droppings, failures of PV components and other factors), then the productivity of the whole group decreases. Defective or shaded panels may produce 15 to 25 percent less solar energy ...

What is a Power Conditioner?

Image
  Looking to protect your sensitive and expensive electronics? Surge protection is a great start, but power conditioners also offer valuable protection for components in entertainment and sound systems, as well as home office devices. What does a power conditioner do that a surge protector can’t? Surge protectors are a great defense against damaging voltage spikes. However more than surges and spikes can effect certain sensitive electronic devices. Radio frequency interference (RFI), electro-magnetic interference (EMI) and voltage fluctuations can also effect sound, entertainment, and office devices, causing a reduction in sound and picture quality. How does it work? Power conditioners act as a buffer between the outlet and your system, smoothing out voltage fluctuations as well as radio and electromagnetic interference that can effect system performance. Initially used in industrial, research and laboratory applications, not long after the introduction of home computer systems, th...
