Renesas Electronics launches 10 new successful product portfolios including automotive grade

These fully tested solutions demonstrate the strength of Renesas’ related product portfolio,

Includes electric vehicle charging, automotive dashboard control and other applications

March 2, 2023, Beijing, China - Renesas Electronics, a global semiconductor solutions provider, today announced the launch of 10 new "successful product portfolios" that combine Renesas' wide range of products - including electric vehicle (EV) charging, Applications include instrument panel control and low-voltage frequency converter functions for traction motors.

Renesas’ “Success Portfolio” of technically proven design excellence enables users to realize their design concepts with a high-level platform, shortening product development cycles and reducing the overall risk of bringing designs to market. Renesas has now launched more than 300 "successful product portfolios" for a wide range of users and markets.

In November 2022, Renesas announced the establishment of a unified global sales and marketing organization, merging teams from its Automotive Electronics Solutions Business Unit (ABU) and Internet of Things and Infrastructure Business Unit (IIBU) to accelerate cross-business divisions. cooperation. The new organizational structure allows Renesas to take advantage of scale by promoting cross-selling opportunities and broader user coverage. The newly launched "Successful Product Portfolio" is the first solution to combine automotive-grade and non-automotive products.

Chris Allexandre, senior vice president and chief sales and marketing officer of Renesas Electronics, said: "These 'successful product portfolios' are excellent examples of Renesas fully leveraging synergies from its new organizational structure. By integrating Renesas' technology, market and customer expertise, With our extensive experience, we can deliver solutions at the best value for huge, fast-growing opportunities in all geographies.”

The 10 new “Successful Product Portfolios” include the following solutions:

OCPP Interface Card (OIC) for smart electric vehicle chargers

The Open Charging Protocol (OCPP) is used for communication between connected charging stations and connected charging management systems. Today, charging stations can connect to OCPP, but with this new solution, stand-alone EV chargers will also be able to connect to OCPP servers to authorize vehicles, remotely manage charger configurations, get real-time alerts, and more. This gives users and manufacturers the flexibility to use any charger with any EV system supporting multiple charging technologies. This "successful product portfolio" includes Renesas' Bluetooth® low energy, Wi-Fi and MCU products.

　3kW off-board electric vehicle charger

High-power off-board chargers are functional modules that support battery pack solutions. This charger combination operates over a universal input range and uses a high-end MCU to control power factor correction (PFC) and manage zero-voltage switching (ZVS). This "successful product portfolio" includes Renesas' MCU, analog, power supply and PWM controller products.

Connected Android Dashboard

This type of connected cockpit design provides developers with all the modules and peripherals needed for complete cockpit application development. This custom board comes with multiple wireless connectivity options such as Wi-Fi, LTE, GPS, and more. Information from outside the vehicle can be fed via dual CAN/FD communication channels. It supports three display connections and multiple launch options, supports Android-based infotainment systems, and dashboard applications via FreeRTOS. This "successful product portfolio" includes Renesas' R-Car automotive system-on-chip (SoC), power management devices, timing products, Wi-Fi, modules and Bluetooth products.

Other “successful product portfolios” include:

　Charging and communication units for electric vehicle charging piles

Vehicle control unit

Low - cost TFT instrument panel equipped with telematics system

Low voltage inverter for 2/3 wheel traction motor control

Automotive telematics box module

High -performance electric vehicle charging wall box solution

　Portable electric vehicle charger

Availability and further information

In addition to the existing "Successful Product Portfolio" of more than 300 models, the new Renesas Electric Vehicle "Successful Product Portfolio" also includes block diagrams, product information, as well as sample acquisition and product purchase information.
