With 34Top/s of AI processing, V4H-7 is aimed at Level 2+ and Level 3 automated driving, over-kill for Level 1 and Level 2 automation.
The additions are:
- 27Top/s V4H-5
- 24Top/s V4H-3
- 17Top/s V4M7
- 14Top/s V4M5
- 11Top/s V4M-3
- 9Top/s V4M-2
“We are extending our ADAS offerings to meet the increasing demand for Level 1 and Level 2 solutions for mass-market vehicles,” said Renesas general manager Aish Dubey. “At the same time, we are developing our new 5th Generation SoCs, which will bolster our offerings in ADAS, cockpit, gateway, and infotainment segments.”
V4M and V4H series feature up to four Arm Cortex-A76 cores for up to 81kDMIPS of application processing. There can also be up to three lock-step Cortex-R52 cores for up to 25k DMIPS of ASIL-D real-time processing.
“The new devices are power efficient, providing 9Top/s/W. In a typical full-feature smart camera with an 8Mpixel sensor, V4M consumes ~5W,” claimed Renesas.
All V4 parts are covered by R-Car Open Access (RoX), a platform combining development hardware, operating systems, software and tools for vehicle electronics with secured continuous software updates.
As well as a software development kit, includes an AI workbench.
Samples of V4M and V4H have been supplied to selected automotive manufacturers, and mass production is scheduled for Q1 of 2026.
