Easily implement industrial ethernet and TSN on various industrial systems

Renesas RZ/N2L product image

Easily implement Industrial Ethernet and TSN on industrial systems without major changes to its internal configuration, using the RZ/N2L MPU that is optimized as a dedicated networking companion chip. The RZ/N2L is equipped with an TSN-compliant 3-port Gigabit Ethernet switch and EtherCAT® slave controller, supporting major industrial Ethernet protocol networks. This high level of integration delivers significant cost savings on the BoM, reducing PCB component count to enable compact designs. 

 

Key features

  • Easily implement industrial Ethernet, TSN on industrial systems
  • Support Major Industrial Ethernet Multi-Protocols and TSN
  • Remote I/O, sensor hub, inverter, and gateway supported on a single chip
  • Easy-to-use development environment including starter kit and software

 

Additional features

  • Arm® Cortex®-R52 CPU Core (maximum operating freqency at 400MHz)
  • A tightly coupled memory (256KB) directly connected to CPU
  • 3-port Gigabit Ethernet switch supporting next-generation network standard TSN and EtherCAT® salve controller. Support EtherCAT(R), PROFINET RT/IRT, EtherNet/IP(TM), and next-generation TSN
  • Host interface allows application CPU to directly connect to RZ/N2L, and access at high speed. Application CPU can directly access to the shared RAM of RZ/N2L.Add industrial Ethernet features to industrial equipment without major system change
  • ELC (Event Link Controller) can be operated without the support of CPU processing.Realize synchronized operation with low latency to the time synchronization in TSN network.
