Renesas RZ/V2N Microprocessor with Advanced Vision AI Technology Now Available at Mouser
Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry’s leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components™, is now stocking the RZ/V2N embedded AI microprocessor (MPU) from Renesas Electronics. The RZ/V2N MPU balances high performance and affordability, allowing more users to deploy vision AI technology in their applications. The versatile RZ/V2N MPU is ideal for AI cameras, roaming robots, aftermarket dashboard cameras, and other applications requiring advanced embedded processing capabilities.
Features
The Renesas RZ/V2N MPU, now available at Mouser, features a proprietary AI accelerator offering 10 TOPS/W power efficiency and up to 15 TOPS AI interface performance. The MPU also includes a quad-core Arm® Cortex®-A55 running at 1.8 GHz, a single Cortex-M33 running at 200 MHz for low power management, and an optional image signal processor (ISP). The RZ/V2N MPU reduces bill of material (BOM) costs by eliminating the need for additional cooling systems, enabling smaller, lighter-end products with longer battery life. With two 4-lane MIPI® CSI-2® camera interfaces, the RZ/V2N MPU can process multiple captured images simultaneously. The two-camera system also improves spatial recognition performance compared to single-camera systems, allowing for more precise human motion analysis and fall detection.
The RZ/V2N MPU features a high-speed LPDDR4/4X memory interface with 32-bit x1 ECC that offers 12.8 GB/s throughput and improved data integrity. Housed in a 15 mm x 15 mm BGA package, the MPU is suitable for a wide range of compact embedded applications. The combined features of the RZ/V2N MPU enable AI functions previously possible only on high-end models, opening up new opportunities for cost-effective AI solutions.
RZ/V2N-EVK
The RZ/V2N-EVK evaluation kit, also available from Mouser, provides a comprehensive development platform for embedded AI applications based on the RZ/V2N MPU. The evaluation kit includes a main board, which includes the target device, and an expansion board. The kit includes 8 GB of memory, ensuring ample processing power for demanding AI tasks, and 64MB of xSPI Flash memory for fast storage. It also features a wide portfolio of connectivity options, offering versatility for various communication needs.
