SIM225 is End of Life — see the SIM252 for new designs.
With a resistive touch 4.3” 480×272 16-bit color LCD powered by the Renesas RX63N MCU, the SIM225 was a breakthrough product using “direct drive” technology for cost-effective and modern HMI experiences. It is still supported by v5.1 of our proprietary SHIPEngine firmware and the SHIPTide development tools.
Standard high-speed UART and power connectivity are provided by Serious 7-pin connectors — perfect for simple attachment to existing systems. Some variants have 26 pin expansion connectors enabling easy custom daughter-card development for more complex connectivity.
