Renesas RA4E1 MCU Group
RA4E1 microcontrollers - 100MHz Arm® Cortex®-M33, the first entry-line product of the RA4 series
The RA41 if based on an 100 MHz Arm® Cortex®-M33 core, offers 512 kB code flash memory and 128 kB SRAM, and provides USB 2.0 Full-Speed, SDHI, Quad SPI, safety features, and advanced analog with one ADC unit.
The RA4E1 group is built on a highly efficient 40nm process and is supported by an open and flexible ecosystem concept, called Flexible Software Package (FSP), including FreeRTOS and Azure RTOS, but can be replaced and expanded by any other RTOS or middleware user’s need.
RA4E1 group is suitable for IoT applications requiring many connectivity options, large embedded RAM, 100 MHz performance and low power consumption.
