- RA4M3 Arm® Cortex®-M33 based MCUs boost performance up to 100 MHz for IoT edge devices
- The latest ARMv8-M core architecture with TrustZone® + Secure Element Functionality
- CTSU capacitive touch
- 1 MB code FLASH, 8 KB data Flash (100,000 program/erase cycles), 128 KB SRAM
The Renesas RA4M3 group uses the high-performance Arm® Cortex®-M33 core with TrustZone®. In concert with the Secure Crypto Engine, it offers Secure Element functionality, as well as rich connectivity with USB 2.0 FS, SDHI, QSPI, and advanced analog.
The RA4M3 is supported by an open and flexible ecosystem concept - the Flexible Software Package (FSP), built on FreeRTOS, and it is expandable to other RTOSes and middleware. The RA4M3 is suitable for IoT applications that require future proof security, a large amount of embedded RAM, and low active power consumption (down to 119 μA/MHz while running the CoreMark® algorithm in Flash).
