Renesas S5D3 Synergy MCUs, Now at Mouser Electronics, Deliver Advanced Security for Industrial IoT

March 14, 2019 - Mouser Electronics, Inc., the authorized global distributor with the newest semiconductors and electronic components, is now stocking the S5D3 Synergy™ Microcontroller Group from Renesas Electronics. Providing a new tier to the established S5 microcontroller series, the S5D3 microcontrollers are built on a highly efficient 40nm process, offering enhanced security, wide connectivity, and software support. The entry-level microcontrollers target a broad range of Internet of Things (IoT), industrial, building automation, smart metering, and home and office equipment with capacitive touch human-machine interfaces (HMIs).

The Renesas S5D3 Synergy microcontrollers, available from Mouser Electronics, incorporate a 120 MHz high Arm^® Cortex^®-M4 core with floating point unit, plus 512 Kbytes of flash and 256 Kbytes of SRAM. The S5D3 devices integrate a secure cryptographic engine (SCE7) with key protection that safeguards the microcontroller boot code and IoT endpoint device communication with a root of trust, eliminating the need for external security functions and reducing BOM cost. The microcontrollers are software- and pin-compatible with other Renesas Synergy microcontrollers, sharing a common set of peripherals and facilitating design scalability and efficient platform-based product development.

The S5D3 microcontrollers feature two 12-bit analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), a 2-channel 12-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC), high-speed 6-channel comparator, temperature sensor, and a 6-channel programmable gain amplifier (PGA). The devices also offer a scalable set of 13 independent 32-bit general-purpose timers, capacitive touch sensing unit, and communications interfaces such as USB, CAN, I²C, SPI, SDHI, and SSI.

The Renesas Synergy Platform provides developers with immediate access to a complete embedded platform, starting with an application programming interface (API) to leverage a full software framework that is built around the best-in-class Express Logic X-Ware™. This software framework, the Synergy Software Package (SSP), relieves developers from creating and maintaining low-level software repeatedly for each of their embedded projects.
