Next-generation home appliances, industrial, and automotive systems require MCUs that deliver faster processing speeds to support the increasing diversity and performance of functions provided by these types of motor-based systems. The new CC-RL C compiler improves performance by three times compared to the existing Renesas compiler.

Additionally, the interrupt response performance time is improved by six times, which ultimately provides customers significantly higher performance in application systems. The CC-RL C compiler also enables longer operating times for battery-operated home appliances and industrial equipment such as healthcare equipment and fire detectors, offering a combination of high performance and reduced power consumption for RL78 MCU-based design.

The new compiler is ideal for users working with the e2 studio (eclipse embedded studio) integrated development environment (IDE), which is being adopted on a global scale. The CC-RL C compiler will be available in both standard and professional versions, with MISRA-C functions in the professional edition.

Renesas Electronics continues to strengthen its robust MCU ecosystem, providing innovative MCU solutions, including IDE tools like the new the new CC-RL C compiler, to increase efficiency in customer development activities while improving performance and reliability to add higher value in user application systems.

Features:

－ Three-times improved MCU processing performance by employing the latest optimization technology

－ Reduced MCU power consumption and 10 percent smaller code size

－ MISRA-C guideline checking functions
