Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of
advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced it will highlight
advances in real-time embedded intelligence in booth #828 at the
Internet of Things World conference in Santa Clara, Calif., May 14-16,
2019.

Renesas will showcase a variety of microprocessor (MPU) and
microcontroller (MCU) solutions that address the changing real-time,
security and convenience demands of smart factory, smart home, smart
industrial, and energy harvesting applications.

Solution Demonstrations

  • Real-Time Industrial IoT (IIoT) Gateway: Renesas will
    demonstrate a secure, end-to-end gateway solution communicating as an
    OPC UA server that can be connected to any OPC UA client or to a cloud
    interface. Based on the RZ/N1 MPU, the Renesas IIoT gateway solution
    collects sensor data from the factory floor and sends it to the cloud
    for real-time analysis leveraging OPC UA and analytics technologies
    from Beeyond
    Incorporated
    and Bruviti,
    respectively. The Renesas RZ/N1 MPU enables OT-IT connection on the
    same chip via a unique core-to-core mechanism that facilitates data
    transfer between two cores operating in OT and IT environments.
  • Secure Chip-to-Cloud Connectivity over Cellular using the Renesas
    Synergy™ Platform:
    As more intelligent devices come online at the
    edge, the flexibility to wirelessly connect to the cloud using Wi-Fi
    or cellular becomes increasingly important. The Synergy AE-CLOUD2 kit
    is an out-of-the-box reference design and starting point for
    developers to quickly connect to their preferred enterprise clouds,
    such as Microsoft Azure™, Amazon Web Services™ or Google Cloud
    Platform™. The AE-CLOUD2 kit features the Renesas Synergy S5D9 MCU
    alongside a wide array of sensors and is certified globally for
    operation on 4G/LTE Cat-M1 and Cat-NB1 cellular networks.
  • Real-Time Asset Tracking: Renesas and Medium
    One
    will demonstrate a complete end-to-end solution for
    next-generation, cloud-based asset tracking with the RX-based LoRa
    Network solution. Featuring Renesas MCUs, Medium One cloud services,
    and sub-GHz communication protocols, the solution allows users to
    “follow the dots” to remotely track and manage assets in real time in
    the cloud using a smartphone and other mobile devices.
  • Energy Harvesting with Silicon-on-Thin-Buried-Oxide (SOTB™)
    Technology:
    The SOTB agriculture soil monitoring proof of concept
    will demonstrate the use of Renesas’ unique integrated solution to
    manage harvested energy at the MCU level by leveraging ambient energy
    sources such as wind, light, thermal, vibration and flow. Featuring
    the ultra-low power SOTB R7F0E embedded controller product, the
    solution allows energy harvesting technologies to drive sensor
    networks in environments that require battery-free sensors or sensors
    that function for long periods without battery replacements.
  • Embedded Security for a Connected World: Renesas will host a
    series of in-booth mini seminars to explore common security use cases
    and threats. Renesas experts will highlight innovative MCU-based
    security features that secure embedded applications from malicious
    attacks, provide authentication functions that mitigate device
    cloning, and ensure trusted network communications that protects IP.
    Secure firmware field upgrades are provided via secure device boot
    support.
