Renesas Electronics Delivers Bluetooth® Smart Wireless Solution to Accelerate Use of Embedded Devices in IoT Applications

RL78/G1D Group of Microcontrollers Extends Battery Life and Provides On-chip Peripheral Circuits that Simplify Antenna Circuit Design
Renesas Electronics Corporation, a premier provider of advanced semiconductor solutions, announced a new wireless solution that supports the Bluetooth® Smart near field wireless communication standard. The new RL78/G1D Group of microcontrollers (MCUs) has been developed by combining the low-power RF Transceiver Technology for Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE), which the company presented at the International Solid-State Circuits Conference (ISSCC) held in February, 2015, with Renesas’ expertise on consumer and industrial MCUs, and on-chip peripheral devices necessary for wireless communication. By employing an evaluation kit and Bluetooth-SIG qualified protocol stack, the new MCUs enable system designers to conduct evaluation of wireless characteristics and initial evaluation of communication behaviors. The new MCUs are also provided with PC GUI tool for easy manipulation of these components. These will enable customers to easily develop Bluetooth Smart applications and reduce the time required for development while making effective use of development environment and software resources.
