Renesas Electronics Showcases Latest IoT Solutions Enabling Smart City at IoT ASIA 2018

SINGAPORE, March 21,
2018 －Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE: 6723), a premier
supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, will showcase a variety of IoT
solutions and expertise at IoT ASIA 2018, to be held at Singapore
Expo Hall 3 on March 21-22, in Singapore. Demonstrations in booth #D05 will
highlight the company’s high-performance and cost-efficient solutions designed
to enable a smart city. These include the Renesas Synergy™ Enterprise Cloud Toolbox
with AE–CLOUD1 Kit, the RX65N Envision kit for HMI
applications, and a
DCPLC networking demonstration based on the powerline
communication modem solution for  building automation.

•
The Renesas Synergy Enterprise Cloud
Toolbox is a software Application Project that together with the Synergy
AE-CLOUD1 kit provides a reference design and starting point for users to
quickly connect to enterprise clouds such as Microsoft Azure™, Amazon Web
Services™, and Google Cloud Platform. Renesas will highlight the ability to
setup the Synergy Enterprise Cloud Toolbox with AE-Cloud1 kit to run on
Singtel’s Cat-M1 cellular network securely within ten minutes. System
developers can leverage this comprehensive environment to achieve quicker and
easier progress from evaluation stage to development and production stages when
connected to Singtel Cat-M1/NB-IoT services.

•
The RX65N
Envision Kit based on the RX65N Group of
microcontrollers (MCUs) allows
quicker and easier evaluation for cost-efficient Human Machine Interface (HMI)
applications.

The kit displays four different pre-installed
demonstrations: The 2D Drawing Engine demo and the Bouncing Balls demo display
how 2D accelerators enable smoother motion graphics. The Mandelbrot demo shows
how using the floating-point unit (FPU) of the RXV2-core enables much quicker
calculation of the Mandelbrot. The bank swap demo displays firmware updating
using the RX65N MCU’s new dual bank flash with BGO (background operation)
function.

The kit includes all the tools necessary for development,
including board circuit diagrams and demonstration source code, which makes it
ideal to be used as reference during project development. System developers
using the RX65N MCU can benefit from SEGGER emWin GUI software as well as
supporting tools without any additional costs.

•
The DC-PLC
networking demonstration highlights how to simplify and reduce cost for
direct current (DC) network system development by deploying a PLC networking
topology for controlling lighting, air-conditioning, systems, and multiple
environmental sensors in a building automation environment – using a single 24V
DC power cable.
