Equipped with 32-bit microcomputer, RX family flagship RX72N is an excellent choice for GUI creation using LCD, HMI development such as voice input/output, and IoT device development using Wi-Fi, BLE or Ethernet. By using LVGL's demo repository with Renesas' ecosystem, you can experience immediately and develop quickly.
The IC is equipped with the third-generation RX CPU core, the RXv3, and an internal networking of peripheral allowing real-time control high-performance with a single chip. The device also has complete security capability, vital for industrial and consumer equipment today.
You can purchase the Renesas RX72N Envision Kit from many distributors. See the sources at https://www.renesas.com/rx72n-envision-kit
