Arm® Cortex®-M4-based Renesas Synergy ™ microcontroller and new GUI support enable richer features on resource-constrained devices
Arrow Electronics has extended its convenient and flexible ARIS (Arrow Renesas IoT Synergy) platform for developing Internet of Things (IoT) devices by introducing the ARIS-EDGE-S3, which packs extra compute performance and the opportunity to add a compact user interface for richer interactions.
Teaming the latest Arm® Cortex®-M4-based 48MHz Renesas Synergy ™ S3A3 Group of microcontrollers with rich context sensing and the multi-protocol wireless subsystem proven in other ARIS-EDGE boards, the new ARIS-EDGE-S3 lets developers add extra sophistication to connected objects. They can also connect a small-form-factor TFT-display, and take advantage of tools and software to create a graphical user interface for an extra level of user interactivity.

The on-board sensors include the Bosch Sensortec BNO055 9-degrees-of-freedom (9-DOF) application specific sensor node (ASSN)absolute orientation sensor, which contains a MEMS accelerometer and gyroscope, a geo-magnetic sensor, and a 32-bit microcontroller running Bosch Sensortec BSX3.0 FusionLib software. This sensor is widely used in robotics, augmented and virtual reality, drones, gaming, and other industrial applications. Also on-board, the BME280 environmental sensor from Bosch Sensortec combines temperature, humidity and pressure sensing, while a separate MEMS microphone and an ambient light sensor further extend contextual awareness.

Furthermore, Arrow and Renesas jointly work with Draupner Graphics to add the highly efficient TouchGFX ™ GUI-solution to the kit in the 2nd quarter of 2018. TouchGFX is ideal for battery-operated, portable products, as it enables extremely stylish GUI whilst keeping resource requirements low enough to often use the S3A3 microcontroller in single-chip mode, which in turn keeps power consumption and cost very low.
Amir Sherman, Arrow’s Director of Engineering Solutions & Embedded Technology, EMEA, comments: “The new ARIS-EDGE-S3 is a great example of how Arrow gives customers a serious head-start. Great hardware, the massive Renesas Synergy Software package as well as Draupner Graphics’ amazing GUI solution empower our customers to get the job done faster and with better results.”
