PEmicro has announced the addition of support for Renesas' RH850 devices to PEmicro's diverse line of embedded systems tools.

Renesas' RH850 is a family of high-performance, low power automotive microcontrollers. PEmicro's powerful Cyclone for Renesas stand-alone programmer now supports these and many other families of Renesas devices.

Current users of compatible PEmicro products can update their product firmware to add support for these devices. The corresponding programming algorithms can be downloaded from PEmicro's online support center.

BOSTON – September 25, 2013 - P&E Microcomputer Systems announced support for a group of Renesas' RX family of devices in Rev. C of the Cyclone for Renesas® In-Circuit Flash Programmer. P&E has implemented support for Renesas' RX600 devices and will continue to add support for other RX devices in the near future. RX is a range of 32-bit Renesas microcontrollers that feature high performance and code efficiency while also offering low power consumption and new/enhanced peripherals. The latest version of P&E's Cyclone for Renesas adds RX to existing support for RL78, R8C, M16C and M16C/80, M32C, H8 and H8S/Tiny devices.

P&E Launches Cyclone Programmer For Renesas Devices FAQs Get Help Buy at P&E P&E Website P&E Launches Cyclone Programmer For Renesas Devices The power of P&E's Cyclone programmers is now available for Renesas! P&E's Cyclone for Renesas is a flexible, affordable in-circuit flash programming solution for Renesas devices that excels in a demanding production environment. After configuration, operation is as simple as one touch. The Cyclone for Renesas includes these features: LCD Menu Display Support For Multiple Images Control Of Multiple Cyclones Optional CompactFlash Support Support is currently available for the R8C, M16C, and H8 families. A complete listing of supported devices is available here. Please contact us for information about support for other devices. The Cyclone for Renesas includes an extremely useful LCD Menu Display that greatly enhances the Cyclone's stand-alone capabilities. The LCD Menu Display allows the user to: Configure the Cyclone without a PC Quickly view and select from multiple programming images Easily perform programming operations in stand-alone mode Get direct feedback about programming results No need to swap programming images! The internal memory of the Cyclone for Renesas manages multiple images. Load several different programming images onto the Cyclone and choose between them using either the PC software or the LCD Menu on the unit itself. The Cyclone's memory can also be expanded with optional CompactFlash activation. Automation can yield a big increase in productivity. P&E includes software with the Cyclone for Renesas that allows the user to automate control of a single Cyclone via a command-line executable or a .dll. NOW AVAILABLE - P&E has introduced the Cyclone Automated Control Package, which allows users to manage multiple Cyclones simultaneously. Any supported devices can be programmed in parallel, even if they are different devices with different data. Please visit P&E's website for information on the Cyclone Automated Control Package (available separately). Expand the memory of your Cyclone for Renesas with P&E's new Compact Flash support. Store more images and larger images while adding flexibility and efficiency by reducing your need to be connected to the PC. P&E's new CompactFlash Activation License activates the Manage Images Utility on the Cyclone interface so that it can be used with CompactFlash cards. Learn More About The Cyclone For Renesas
