  • Choose from Renesas Electronics recommended devices

From toothbrushes to tumble dryers, pumps to power trains, and cameras to climate control, electric motors are all around us. Designers of these applications are able to choose from a wide range of motors that all impose different requirements on microcontrollers. When choosing a microcontroller supplier for motor control applications it is becoming increasingly important that a wide range of different microcontroller variants is available. Due to increasingly stringent government legislation on environmental issues, greater efficiency is also demanded from motors, which is driving designers to develop more and more complex motor control techniques. This, combined with shrinking market windows, is imposing shorter and shorter development cycles on designers.

Renesas Electronics motor control solutions are designed to enable high quality systems to be developed, while enabling shorter development cycles. From simple to use 8-bit low pin count microcontrollers for low-end motor control to 32-bit microcontrollers running at over 100MHz for complex algorithms. Motor control specific ASSPs are also available and Renesas Electronics has one of the widest ranges of devices available - each with different performance levels, memory sizes, A/D converter specifications, and inverter timer features. With over 900 general purpose and motor control specific devices from which to choose, you are sure to find a device to leave your competition behind.

To make it easier to choose the right device simply browse through our motor control mall and find your application. You'll be given a system level diagram and detailed examples of circuit diagrams based on Renesas Electronics microcontrollers.
