Secure Bootloader for RH850
Embien has been working with Renesas on its RH850 devices for a long time developing various solutions for the powerful MCU. Our expert team developed a Secure Bootloader for RH850 to ensure that the firmware is valid and is from a trusted source before running it. The RH850 Secure Bootloader (RH850 SBL) also allows download of new firmware over channels like CAN, UART etc. so that it can be readily integrated to any custom application and Firmware upgrade functionality immediately provided.
The SBL is highly optimized for RH850 devices that leverages the internal secure core to run the validation before the firmware is run by the application core. The bootloader is validated by some of the advanced techniques that the customer can use it with 100% confidence.
