Design Platform Integrates Software, Firmware, and Hardware Development

Renesas 365, powered by Altium, is a virtual design environment that unifies software, firmware, and hardware dev workflows to improve efficiency and accelerate design.

Designed to streamline electronics system development from silicon selection to system lifecycle management, Renesas 365, powered by Altium, eliminates inefficiencies, connects teams, enables solution discovery, and ensures digital continuity, connecting Altium’s cloud platform with Renesas’ embedded compute, analog & connectivity, and power portfolio.

By integrating hardware, software, and lifecycle data into a single digital environment, it will simplify workflows, accelerate time-to-market, ensure digital traceability and real-time insights, and improve decision-making from concept to deployment.

Renesas 365 ensures that every silicon component is application-ready and optimized for software-defined products, for silicon that seamlessly integrates with the broader system. It enables engineers to find components and complete solutions from Renesas’ portfolio for faster and more accurate system design. Providing a multidisciplinary cloud-based development environment, it ensures real-time collaboration across hardware, software, and mechanical teams.

In this video, Leigh Gawne, VP of R&D for Digital Industries at Renesas, demonstrates how the new platform helps simplify the design of a self-balancing robot.
