RS Components (RS) is now offering the RX72N Envision Kit from Renesas Electronics.

Optimised for HMI development in the IoT, the RX72N Envision Kit offers a sophisticated and integrated platform for developing applications that require a graphical user interface (GUI). With a fully integrated WQVGA LCD with capacitive touch-sensing, developers can quickly develop HMIs for IoT applications.

The kit is based on the RX72N 32-bit microcontroller (MCU), the flagship member of Renesas’ RX MCU family. The RX72N MCU features Renesas’ third-generation RX CPU core, the RXv3, which has been designed to deliver improved performance and faster interrupt response.

Hardware accelerators for trigonometric calculations increase the speed of motor control applications, while the integrated TFT LCD controller and 2D drawing engine make full use of the kit’s display.

Trusted Secure IP, an integrated security hardware IP, provides a cryptography engine to realise AES, RSA, ECC as well as secure key management to protect customers’ important keys and IDs. Furthermore, the RX72N enables both wired and wireless network connections necessary for IoT applications via integrated Ethernet controllers and various serial interfaces for wireless module connection.
