The Renesas RA8T2 motor control MCU has up to 1MB of high-speed MRAM

Renesas Electronics launched a new high-end motor control MCU, the RA8T2. It is based on a 1 GHz Arm Cortex-M85 processor with an optional 250 MHz Arm Cortex-M33 processor, to deliver a high performance level to address real-time control of high-end motors in industrial equipment, robots, and other systems.

The RA8T2 has an integrated 1MB high-speed MRAM, in addition to 2MB SRAM (including 256KB TCM for the Cortex-M85 and 128KB TCM for the M33). The RA8T2 Group MCUs are available now, along with the FSP software.
