Built around a RX CISC-type CPU core, the eight 32-bit devices deliver 1.65MIPS/MHz processing performance, they incorporate up to 2Mbytes of on-chip flash, and provide legacy, enhanced and new peripheral functions with 0.5mA/MHz product power for applications such as high-end office equipment and digital consumer products.
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 systems for high-end office equipment, digital consumer products and similar applications that run large-scale programs rapidly while achieving high performance levels. They deliver strong 1.65 MIPS/MHz processing performance while operating at speeds up to 100MHz. The MCUs are efficient, consuming only 0.03mA/MHz CPU core current.
RX610 MCUs have up to 2Mbytes of on-chip flash memory that can be accessed at 100MHz in a single clock cycle to maximize code execution. They also provide 32Kbytes of data flash memory with a background operation (BGO) function that enables data to be written at the same time a program is executing.
The chips, which come in 144-pin LQFP and 176-pin BGA packages, integrate an extensive range of built-in legacy, enhanced and new peripheral functions for system design flexibility. RX610 MCUs also achieve low-power consumption operation with 0.5mA/MHz product power.
