Customers can now design and debug software for Renesas embedded processors in VS Code, complementing Renesas’ own e2 Studio IDE

Beijing, China, August 1, 2023 - Renesas Electronics, a global supplier of semiconductor solutions, today announced that its customers can now use Microsoft® Visual Studio Code (VS Code) to develop for the full range of Renesas microcontrollers (MCUs) and microprocessors (MPUs) . Renesas has developed tool extensions for all of its embedded processors and published them on the Microsoft VS Code website, enabling a large number of designers who are accustomed to using this popular integrated development environment (IDE) and code editor to work in their familiar development environment.

VS Code IDE simplifies and accelerates code editing across multiple platforms and operating systems. By providing support for VS Code, Renesas now enables more designers to create efficient embedded solutions using Renesas products. VS Code complements Renesas' own powerful and flexible e2 studio IDE, which is used by thousands of designers around the world.

Renesas now supports customers using Visual Studio Code to develop and debug embedded software for its 16-bit RL78 and 32-bit RA, RX, and RH850 MCUs, as well as 64-bit RZ MPUs and R-Car family SoCs. Renesas embedded processors target applications such as automotive, IoT, industrial automation, home appliances, and healthcare.

“As a global MCU supplier, Renesas has a large and loyal customer base, many of which develop applications using our powerful e2 studio IDE,” said Akiya Fukui, Vice President and Head of the Software Development Division at Renesas. “By providing support for VS Code, more designers will be able to develop embedded applications using Renesas processors.”

“We welcome Renesas, a leader in the embedded processor market, to the Visual Studio Code community,” said Marc Goodner, Principal Product Manager, Microsoft . “The millions of developers using VS Code can now access Renesas’ broad and highly productive MCU and MPU product line.”

Users can download VS Code for free, including access to the source code. They can create a source code repository with the Github pull request extension, and then use VS Code to view and edit the source code. They can also take advantage of evolving extensions and use a simple user interface or a flexible command interface.

Availability

The tool extensions for Renesas MCUs and MPUs are available today on the Microsoft VS Code website.
