Event Summary

MathWorks has announced new Hardware Support Packages that directly connect Model-Based Design and simulation to execution on Renesas' RH850/U2A microcontroller for automotive applications and the RA6T2 microcontroller for industrial controls. These integrations with MATLAB and Simulink enable engineering teams to automate build, flashing, and on-target execution, eliminating many manual integration steps. This collaboration aims to provide a consistent Model-Based Design workflow across both automotive and industrial programs, reducing integration effort and accelerating deployment. The RH850/U2A is widely used in automotive electronic control units for EV motor control and ADAS, while the RA platform is optimized for industrial and robotics applications. The initiative is part of the MathWorks Connections program, designed to improve interoperability and reduce time to market.
