It targets embedded control in industrial equipment and office automation systems.
For engineers reviewing the DF36037FZV datasheet, DF36037FZV pinout, DF36037FZV application, or DF36037FZV equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package mapping, functional pin roles, real-world use cases, and validated alternative options for design-in and supply continuity.
Technical Context
The DF36037FZV implements the H8/300H CPU core with 16-bit ALU, 32-bit internal data path, and 24-bit address space supporting up to 16 MB memory. It includes integrated system control modules (clock generator, power-down modes), peripheral modules (SCI, I2C, timers, ADC), and flash memory with in-circuit programming capability via boot mode.
It operates at 5 V ±10%, supports three low-power modes (Sleep, Standby, Subsleep), and features configurable interrupt sources including external pins, internal peripherals, and wakeup events. The device uses a 100-pin QFP package with dedicated reset, NMI, and clock input pins, and requires external crystal or ceramic resonator for main system clock generation.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the DF36037FZV?
The DF36037FZV supports a maximum CPU operating frequency of 10 MHz when powered at 5 V. This frequency is derived from the system clock generator's prescaler configuration and is validated across the full −20°C to +75°C operating temperature range. The DF36037FZV does not support frequencies above 10 MHz, and exceeding this limit may cause instruction execution errors or timing violations in peripheral modules.
Does the DF36037FZV include on-chip flash memory, and what is its size?
Yes, the DF36037FZV integrates 128 KB of on-chip flash memory for program storage. This memory is electrically erasable and programmable in-system via the SCI3 interface using boot mode, eliminating the need for external programming hardware. The DF36037FZV flash supports block erase and byte/word write operations with typical endurance of 10,000 write/erase cycles.
Which communication interfaces are supported by the DF36037FZV?
The DF36037FZV supports three serial communication interfaces: three independent SCI (UART) modules and two I²C bus interfaces. SCI1 and SCI2 are fully functional UARTs with baud rate generators and framing control; SCI3 is designated for on-board programming in boot mode. Both I²C channels operate as masters or slaves with standard-mode (100 kbps) and fast-mode (400 kbps) support.
What power management features does the DF36037FZV offer?
The DF36037FZV implements four low-power modes: Active, Sleep, Standby, and Subsleep. In Subsleep mode, current consumption drops to ≤10 µA while retaining RAM content and allowing wakeup via external interrupt or RTC alarm. The DF36037FZV also supports module-level clock gating through MSTCR1/MSTCR2 registers to disable clocks to unused peripherals like SCI or timers.
Is the DF36037FZV pin-compatible with other members of the H8/36037 Group?
Yes, the DF36037FZV shares identical pinout and package (100-pin QFP) with all members of the H8/36037 Group, including HD64F36037 and HD64F36037G. Functionally identical variants differ only in marking, packaging material (plastic vs. ceramic), or quality grade labeling - all maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the same PCB footprint and schematic design.
