Mouser Electronics, Inc., the authorized global distributor with the newest electronic components and industrial automation products, is now shipping the new RA8T2 motor control microcontrollers (MCUs) from Renesas Electronics. The RA8T2 MCUs are high-end, highly precise MCUs for motor control in industrial applications.
The Renesas RA8T2 motor control MCUs, available from Mouser, deliver system control with synchronous communication using Ethernet or EtherCAT, all on a single chip. These MCUs enable high-speed operation of the Arm® Cortex-M85 core and integrate large-capacity (1MB high-speed MRAM and 2MB SRAM) memory, ensuring superior real-time performance with high precision for demanding industrial applications.
The dual-core option (Arm Cortex-M85 + Arm Cortex-M33 core) allows users to build energy-efficient motor control applications with the main core performing real-time control, while the other core manages system control and high-speed communication, significantly improving parallel operation performance. Optimized digital and analog peripherals and functions feature two 16-bit ADCs with 23 analog channels, a 2-channel 12-bit DAC, advanced communication peripherals with dual gigabit Ethernet ports, an EtherCAT slave controller, CAN FD, plus enhanced security features with an RSIP-E50D cryptographic engine, secure debug, and DML support.
Mouser also stocks the Renesas MCK-RA8T2 flexible motor control kit, a comprehensive development platform designed to streamline the development of motor control applications. The kit includes a CPU board, inverter board, communication board, and a BLDC motor, offering a ready-to-use hardware setup. The MCK-RA8T2 features an on-board debugger that enables direct MRAM programming of the RA8T2 MCU via a PC connection, allowing users to quickly load and test sample programs. With the capability to control up to two motors (with an additional inverter board) and integrated support for EtherCAT slave communication, the MCK-RA8T2 kit enables the development of industrial and automation applications.
