Experience a new level of intelligent performance with our new System-on-Module, integrating the versatile graphical capabilities with a 0.5 TOPS on-chip NPU and high-speed communication interfaces. This powerful combination delivers exceptional processing capabilities for HMI and Edge computing applications!

Advanced Multimedia

The RZ/G3E SOM features high-end dual display graphic capabilities with both 3D and 2D engines and hardware accelerator for H.264 1080p60 and H.265 4Kp30 video decoding and encoding.

With MIPI-DSI, LVDS and parallel RGB display outputs, MIPI-CSI camera inputs, flexible audio interfaces and comprehensive communication features, the RZ/G3E is ideal for industrial, user interface (HMI) and multimedia applications.

Ethos-U55 NPU

These capabilities are perfectly complemented by the on-chip Ethos-U55 NPU delivering 0.5 TOPS AI acceleration – suitable for entry level vision AI applications, voice AI and sensor data base AI applications.
The Ethos-U55 is controlled by the Cortex-M33 offloading the Cortex-A55 from the AI operations.

Renesas Technology

The module is based on Renesas’ energy efficient RZ/G3E application processor which has up to 4x Cortex-A55 cores capable at running up to 1.8 GHz and one Cortex-M33 core running up to 200 MHz – 21.6K DMIPS in total!

Temperature Range

The SOM is available in industrial and commercial temperature ranges, -40 to +85 / 0 to 70 degrees Celsius, respectively.

Compact form factor

82×50 mm, using the proven MXM3 connector.

Scalable Solution – Edge Compute/AI

There is a version of the board; RZ/G3E DX-M1 SOM, with the DX-M1 25 TOPS AI Booster mounted – allowing you to scale seamlessly from Edge Compute to Edge AI applications!

Note: The product picture is not correct. The DX-M1 AI Booster is not mounted on this board.
