AE-CLOUD1 Application Example for Cloud Connectivity

The Renesas Synergy™ AE-CLOUD1 Application Example for Cloud Connectivity is designed to allow the user to connect to Renesas IoT Sandbox and Synergy Enterprise Cloud Toolbox to build cloud based IoT solutions.

The AE-CLOUD1 kit contains the following:

• S5D9 MCU Board with Ethernet and on-board sensors

• Wi-Fi Board using Qualcomm Atheros QCA4002

• Segger J-Link® Lite for Renesas Synergy™

Hardware

• MCU Board: Featuring Renesas Synergy S5D9 MCU Group with Arm® Cortex®-M4F @120MHz with 2MB Flash and 640KB SDRAM. The MCU board also offers 256Mbits serial Nor QSPI Flash, 6-axis digital compass, microphone, barometric pressure, temperature and relative humidity sensors, 10/100Base-T Ethernet port, USB 2.0 Full Speed (Device and 5V Power), 2x Grove connectors (I2C/GPIO, UART/GPIO), and 3x colored LEDs (Red, Yellow, Green).

• Wi-Fi Board: Offering 802.11 b/g/n using Qualcomm Atheros QCA4002 that is supported with the Synergy Wi-Fi Framework.

• Debugger and Cable: Segger J-Link® Lite for Renesas Synergy™ debugger and cable

• USB Cables: 2x A male to Micro B male 1ft cables.

Embedded Software

• Programming at the API level using Synergy Software Package (SSP) with production ready RTOS, middleware, security, frameworks, libraries, and drivers.

Cloud Services

• Support for Renesas IoT Sandbox – a free prototyping environment including cloud-based developer accounts and editable mobile apps for iOS and Android. Renesas IoT Sandbox is a great tool to use if you haven’t yet selected a cloud vendor but you need to quickly develop an IoT prototype.  Build your first prototype in a day.

• Ability to connect to Amazon Web Service, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform in 10 minutes using the Synergy Enterprise Cloud Toolbox application project and associated Renesas cloud dashboard. With this reference design, you can save months on developing your Enterprise cloud connected product.
