Renesas DF2215TE16V

Overview

DF2215TE16V from Renesas Electronics is a 16-bit single-chip microcomputer in the H8S/2215 Group, featuring an H8S/2000 CPU core, 256 KB on-chip flash memory (F-ZTAT™), 16 KB RAM, USB 1.1 interface, and integrated 10-bit A/D converter with 8 channels. It operates at up to 24 MHz via on-chip PLL and supports industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It is used in embedded control systems requiring real-time I/O handling and USB connectivity, such as industrial HMIs and sensor gateways.

For engineers reviewing the DF2215TE16V datasheet, DF2215TE16V pinout, DF2215TE16V application, or DF2215TE16V equivalent, key selection criteria include its F-ZTAT flash reprogrammability, USB transceiver integration, 10-bit A/D resolution with sample-and-hold, TPU-based PWM generation, and support for both normal and advanced CPU operating modes.

Technical Context

The DF2215TE16V implements the H8S/2000 CPU architecture with sixteen 16-bit general-purpose registers, 32-bit internal data paths, and upward object-level compatibility with H8/300H instructions. It includes a programmable PLL supporting 13–24 MHz operation and dual clock domains (main and USB 48 MHz).

On-chip peripherals include a 16-bit Timer Pulse Unit (TPU) with 8 channels, two SCIs, watchdog timer, DTC (Data Transfer Controller), and USB module with built-in transceiver and serial interface engine (SIE). The A/D converter supports single- and continuous-conversion modes with external trigger capability.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating frequency of the DF2215TE16V?

The DF2215TE16V supports a maximum system clock frequency of 24 MHz using the on-chip PLL in ×2 multiplication mode with an 8 MHz crystal input. Its USB module operates at a fixed 48 MHz derived from the PLL, meeting full-speed USB 1.1 timing requirements. The CPU executes instructions at this rate with deterministic cycle counts per instruction as defined in the H8S/2000 Software Manual.

Does the DF2215TE16V include an integrated USB transceiver?

Yes, the DF2215TE16V integrates a full-speed USB 1.1 transceiver with differential drivers and receivers on USB_DP and USB_DM pins. It requires no external PHY or termination resistors, simplifying layout and reducing BOM. The USB module includes a serial interface engine (SIE) that handles token, handshake, and data packet processing autonomously.

Can the DF2215TE16V's A/D converter operate with separate analog and digital supply voltages?

No - the DF2215TE16V requires AVCC = VCC for A/D operation, as explicitly stated in the hardware manual notes. Using AVCC > VCC risks damage or invalid conversion results. Both supplies must be within 2.7 V to 3.6 V and share a common ground (AVSS = VSS). AN0 and AN1 inputs are only functional under this condition.

What flash technology does the DF2215TE16V use, and how many write/erase cycles does it support?

The DF2215TE16V uses Renesas' F-ZTAT™ (Flash Zero Turn-Around Time) single-power flash, rated for 10,000 write/erase cycles per sector and data retention of 20 years at +85°C. It supports block erase and byte/word programming via on-chip command interface, enabling in-system updates without external programming hardware.

Is the DF2215TE16V pin-compatible with other members of the H8S/2215 Group?

Yes - the DF2215TE16V shares the same 120-pin TFP package and pin assignment with all H8S/2215 variants including HD64F2215T, HD64F2215TU, and R5F22215TDFP. Signal names, I/O types, and electrical characteristics are consistent across these parts, enabling drop-in replacement where flash configuration and temperature grade align.
