Features

  • Based on Renesas' RA6M3 Family of microcontrollers with Renesas analog and power management products
  • Firmware development supported by Renesas' e2 studio, Flexible Software Package (FSP) and FreeRTOS
  • Supports direct interfacing to analog fuel level senders in truck tanks
  • Possesses 9 Degrees-of-Freedom (9DOF), sensor for driver behavior analysis and monitoring
  • Designed to resist power fluctuations: overvoltage, overcurrent, reverse polarity protection
  • Undervoltage cut-off to avoid draining a vehicle's battery
  • Logs locations while out of communications coverage
  • Avoids "hung system" phenomena, which plagues other products
  • Firmware Over-the-Air (FOTA) upgrade
  • Can be used for non-fleet IoT applications, as a communications adaptor board
