Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE: 6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced the new RZ/N Series of industrial networking communication microprocessors (MPUs) that simplifies network-based application development. The RZ/N Series is ideal for use in industrial network devices such as network switches, gateways, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), operator terminals, and remote I/O units. The RZ/N brings together multiple industrial networking technologies within a single chip, enabling system manufacturers to develop systems supporting a variety of industrial network protocols and network redundancy protocols in less time. Renesas also delivers broad ecosystem support to facilitate system manufacturers’ software development by offering a general application programmable interface (API) that provides a unified support for network protocol stacks implemented by industry-leading Renesas partners, in addition to compiler and OS environments.The RZ/N lineup comprises three product groups for scalability: the RZ/N1D Group for high-end applications, the RZ/N1S Group for mid-range applications, and the RZ/N1L Group for low-end applications.
