Renesas (Renesas) announced in October this year in Taiwan and mainland China launched Renesas Synergy platform. Renesas Synergy is a integrated platform, rich resources and complete the attached full integration software, can be expanded microcontroller (MCU) series, and a unified development tools can assist in embedded system developers, faster launch innovative application of Internet of things device products.

Synergy platform key is at the heart of the Synergy software suite (SSP), is provided by the company examination qualified, support, warranty and is responsible for the maintenance. SSP contains real-time operating system (RTOS), middleware, and communication protocol, etc., and are available through an application programming interface (API) to access, let users do not have to handle details of some lower order.

Developers can in API level, immediately began to MCU software development, so that the resources and manpower to focus on their product differentiation, rather than repeatedly cost on each common products or similar design program. In addition, system developers can also reduce overall holding cost, and eliminate many disorder impeding the ability of a new design.

When developers to use this platform, can choose to use any kind of professional software development environment, two kinds of environment provide a complete step by step guidance and function code. One for the IAR Embedded Workbench, is the development of the world's most widely used tool chain, has been integrated into Synergy platform; Second is acclaimed for quite a long time, the basement of development tools for the Eclipse e2 studio.
