Product details
Overview
DF36079LHV from Renesas Electronics is a 16-bit single-chip microcomputer in the H8/36079 Group, featuring the H8/300H CPU core with instruction set compatibility to H8/300. It integrates on-chip ROM (128 KB), RAM (8 KB), and peripheral modules including 3-channel SCI, 16-bit timer/counters, and 8-channel 10-bit ADC - designed for embedded control in industrial equipment and office automation systems.
For engineers reviewing the DF36079LHV datasheet, DF36079LHV pinout, DF36079LHV application, or DF36079LHV equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (LQFP-100), confirmed pin functions (e.g., P10–P17 as 8-bit port, P21/P22 as SCI3 RX/TX), real-time interrupt handling latency (≤1.5 µs), and validated alternatives for legacy H8-based system upgrades.
Technical Context
The DF36079LHV implements the H8/300H CPU with 24-bit address space, supporting up to 16 MB external memory expansion. Its clock system includes selectable internal RC oscillator (1 MHz ±10%), crystal input (1–20 MHz), and PLL multiplication for system clocks up to 20 MHz.
Interrupt handling uses two priority-level registers (IEGR1/IEGR2) and four flag registers (IRR1/IRR2/IWPR/ABRKSR), enabling nested interrupts with vectorized response. The on-chip peripheral set includes three serial communication interfaces (SCI1–SCI3), each configurable as UART or clock-synchronous mode, with independent baud rate generators.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CPU Core | H8/300H 16-bit RISC core, instruction-compatible with H8/300; enables reuse of existing toolchains and firmware libraries. |
| Memory | 128 KB on-chip ROM (mask-programmed), 8 KB on-chip RAM; eliminates need for external program memory in cost-sensitive designs. |
| ADC | 8-channel 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with sample-and-hold; supports analog sensor interfacing at ≤100 kSPS with internal reference. |
| Timers | Three 16-bit timer/counters (TGRA–TGRD) with capture/compare, PWM output, and external event counting; suitable for motor control timing and pulse measurement. |
| Serial Interfaces | Three independent SCI modules (SCI1–SCI3); SCI3 supports on-board programming via P21/RXD and P22/TXD pins in boot mode. |
| Supply Voltage | 3.0 V to 5.5 V operation; accommodates both 3.3 V and 5 V system rails without level-shifting components. |
| Package | LQFP-100 (14 mm × 14 mm, 0.5 mm pitch); compatible with standard SMT reflow profiles and automated optical inspection. |
Pinout & Package
LQFP-100 package with exposed thermal pad; 100-pin square outline, lead-free and RoHS-compliant per Renesas specification.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC, VSS | Power supply and ground | Dual VCC/VSS pairs (pins 1–2, 99–100) ensure low-noise power delivery to core and I/O sections independently. |
| P10–P17 | 8-bit bi-directional port | Configurable as general-purpose I/O or alternate function (e.g., timer input capture); supports pull-up resistors internally enabled. |
| P21, P22 | SCI3 RX/TX | Dedicated full-duplex UART interface used for factory programming and debug communication; requires no external transceiver. |
| RESET | Active-low reset input | Asynchronous reset with built-in debouncing; triggers hardware initialization and register clearing upon falling edge. |
| CLKIN, CLKOUT | External clock input/output | Accepts 1–20 MHz crystal or CMOS clock source; CLKOUT provides buffered system clock for trace/debug synchronization. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| On-chip mask ROM | 128 KB ROM enables secure, tamper-resistant firmware storage without external flash - ideal for production-volume embedded controllers. |
| Low-voltage detection | Integrated LVD circuit monitors VCC and asserts reset below programmable threshold (e.g., 4.2 V or 3.7 V); prevents erratic operation during brown-out. |
| SCI boot mode | SCI3 (P21/P22) enters on-board programming mode at power-on when BOOT pin is asserted; allows field firmware updates without JTAG emulator. |
| Timer event chaining | 16-bit timers support inter-module linking (e.g., TGRA overflow triggering TGRB start); enables precise multi-stage timing sequences for motion control. |
| Interrupt nesting | Hardware-supported priority levels and automatic context save enable deterministic real-time response to concurrent events (e.g., ADC EOC + UART RX). |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Module | Office Equipment Motor Control |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| HD64F36079L | Same die, identical ROM/RAM/peripherals; differs only in marking and Renesas part numbering convention - DF36079LHV is the later-orderable variant. | No functional difference; fully interchangeable in all H8/36079L-based designs. | Select HD64F36079L only if legacy BOM references require exact historical part number match. |
| H8/36077LF | Smaller memory (64 KB ROM, 4 KB RAM), reduced peripheral count (2 SCI, 6-channel ADC); same CPU core and pin-compatible LQFP-100 footprint. | Suitable for cost-optimized variants where firmware size <64 KB and fewer analog inputs are required. | Choose H8/36077LF when scaling down feature set while retaining PCB layout and software compatibility. |
Compared with DF36079LHV, HD64F36079L offers identical functionality under an older naming scheme, whereas H8/36077LF provides a memory- and peripheral-reduced alternative with shared pinout - enabling design reuse across product tiers without layout changes.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the DF36079LHV?
The DF36079LHV supports a maximum system clock frequency of 20 MHz, achievable via internal PLL multiplication of an external crystal (e.g., 4 MHz input ×5). This frequency is sustained across the full 3.0–5.5 V supply range and commercial temperature grade (0°C to +70°C), enabling deterministic instruction execution at 20 MIPS.
Does the DF36079LHV support in-system programming without a JTAG debugger?
Yes, the DF36079LHV supports on-board programming via SCI3 using the P21 (RXD) and P22 (TXD) pins in boot mode, triggered by asserting the BOOT pin at power-on. This capability enables field firmware updates using standard UART tools - no JTAG emulator or additional hardware is required for basic reprogramming of the DF36079LHV.
What are the key differences between DF36079LHV and H8/36077LF?
The DF36079LHV features 128 KB ROM and 8 KB RAM versus 64 KB ROM and 4 KB RAM in the H8/36077LF; it also adds a third SCI channel and two extra ADC input channels. Both share the same LQFP-100 package, H8/300H core, and peripheral register map - making the DF36079LHV a direct upward-compatible upgrade path within the same PCB layout.
Is the DF36079LHV qualified for automotive applications?
No, the DF36079LHV is classified as a "Standard" quality grade device per Renesas documentation and is intended for computers, office equipment, communications gear, and industrial robots - not for automotive, medical, or safety-critical systems. It lacks AEC-Q100 qualification, extended temperature range support, or fault-tolerant design features required for vehicle use.
How does the low-voltage detection (LVD) function operate on the DF36079LHV?
The DF36079LHV includes an integrated low-voltage detection circuit that monitors VCC and generates a reset when voltage drops below a user-selectable threshold (e.g., 4.2 V or 3.7 V). Configuration is done via the LVDCR register, and the LVD status is readable in LVDSR - allowing firmware to initiate safe shutdown before brown-out corruption occurs in the DF36079LHV.
