It says that, within a year, it will offer MCUs supporting LoRaWAN, adding the compact nature of its MCU packages will simplify their integration into systems and reduce board area, compared to conventional packaging methods. Based on these technologies, Renesas intends to deliver a total ‘wireless network solution’, combining wireless MCU and software.
One of the first families likely to feature LoRaWAN functionality is the low-power RL78 MCU range.
