The RX140 microcontrollers in the Renesas RX100 series feature the highest processing performance and low supply current. This makes them suitable for a wide range of home appliance, industrial and building automation applications. The RX140 with the RXv2 core can achieve a maximum operating frequency of 48 MHz, which is approximately double the performance of the previous RX130 operating at 32 MHz.
Compared to the RX130, the CPU consumes 56 µA/MHz during operation and 0.25 µA in standby mode, a power consumption reduction of over 30%. Low-power modes (sleep mode) also enable additional low-power modes for applications that require intermittent operation.
Equipped with third-generation touch IP, capacitive touch sensors offer significantly improved noise and water resistance for a wider range of uses, including applications where accuracy is affected by noise or moisture. Peripheral functions have also been expanded to include CAN functionality to support real-time communications, AES encryption accelerators to reduce security threats such as data eavesdropping and tampering, and a true random number generator.Renesas' RXv2 MCUs with advanced touch keys and security features are ideal for home appliances and industrial applications
