"We are glad to team up with Express Logic as a new software alliance partner for this innovative ecosystem support programme," said Bernd Westhoff, RX product manager at Renesas Electronics Europe. "The Express Logic software solutions, combined with the scalable 32bit RX MCU platform, creates an ideal base for any customer application."

"Renesas' customers can take advantage of the RX ecosystem support programme and gain access to our leading RTOS products free of charge."
