Product details
Overview
DF36902GFHV from Renesas Electronics is a 16-bit single-chip microcomputer in the H8/36902 Group, featuring the H8/300H CPU core, 64 KB on-chip ROM, 4 KB RAM, and integrated peripherals including UART, I2C, and 16-bit timer/counters. It operates at up to 20 MHz with 5 V supply and targets embedded control in industrial equipment and consumer appliances.
For engineers reviewing the DF36902GFHV datasheet, DF36902GFHV pinout, DF36902GFHV application, or DF36902GFHV equivalent, key selection considerations include its 80-pin QFP package, on-chip RC oscillator trimming capability, sleep/subsleep power-down modes, and compatibility with H8/300H instruction set for legacy code reuse.
Technical Context
The DF36902GFHV implements the H8/300H CPU architecture with full instruction set compatibility to the earlier H8/300, enabling migration of existing firmware. Its clock system supports multiple sources: internal RC oscillator (trimmable to ±1% accuracy), external crystal (1–10 MHz), or external clock input, with programmable prescalers and dynamic clock switching between active and low-power modes.
Peripheral integration includes two asynchronous serial interfaces (UART), one I2C bus interface, four 16-bit timer/counters with input capture/output compare, and 64 general-purpose I/O pins configurable as ports with pull-up resistors and interrupt capability. All peripherals are memory-mapped and controlled via dedicated registers accessible in supervisor or user mode.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| HD64F36902G | Same silicon die and pinout; differs only in mask ROM vs. flash memory - DF36902GFHV uses flash for field updates, HD64F36902G uses OTP ROM | HD64F36902G is suited for high-volume, fixed-function deployments where firmware never changes; DF36902GFHV supports post-deployment updates and development iteration | Select DF36902GFHV when firmware flexibility, security boot, or in-field patching is required. |
| H8/36912F | Higher memory configuration: 128 KB ROM + 8 KB RAM; adds CAN controller and extra UART channel not present in DF36902GFHV | H8/36912F targets automotive body electronics and multi-protocol gateways; DF36902GFHV fits simpler, cost-optimized industrial controls | Choose DF36902GFHV for applications needing only basic serial/peripheral set and lower BOM cost. |
Compared with HD64F36902G and H8/36912F, DF36902GFHV delivers optimal balance of flash-based programmability, 64 KB/4 KB memory, and minimal peripheral set - making it ideal for cost-sensitive, update-capable embedded controllers where CAN or extended memory are unnecessary.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the DF36902GFHV?
The DF36902GFHV operates at a maximum frequency of 20 MHz when supplied with 5 V. This rating is specified under DC characteristics and validated across commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C). The actual achievable frequency depends on clock source stability and PCB layout; for example, using the internal RC oscillator trimmed to ±1% allows full 20 MHz operation without external crystal. DF36902GFHV's timing margins are documented in Section 8 (Electrical Characteristics) of its Hardware Manual Rev. 3.00.
Does DF36902GFHV support in-system programming (ISP)?
Yes, DF36902GFHV supports in-system programming via its on-chip flash memory. The device includes dedicated FLMCR1/FLMCR2 registers and a command sequence defined in the Hardware Manual to erase and program flash sectors without removing the chip from the board. DF36902GFHV requires no external high-voltage supply - programming uses standard VCC (4.5–5.5 V) and is secured by lock bits to prevent unauthorized access. This capability is integral to DF36902GFHV's role in field-upgradable industrial controllers.
What power-saving modes does DF36902GFHV offer?
DF36902GFHV provides three hardware-controlled low-power modes: Sleep (CPU halted, peripherals active), Standby (CPU and most peripherals halted, RAM retained), and Subsleep (deep power-down with only reset and selected interrupts waking the device). Current consumption drops to ≤10 µA in Subsleep mode. These modes are configured via SYSCR1/SYSCR2 registers and are fully documented in Section 6 of the DF36902GFHV Hardware Manual. Each mode preserves specific register states and I/O levels as defined for DF36902GFHV's deterministic restart behavior.
Is DF36902GFHV pin-compatible with other H8/36902 variants?
Yes, DF36902GFHV is pin-compatible with all members of the H8/36902 Group, including HD64336902G and HD64F36902G, sharing the same 80-pin QFP package and identical pin functions. This compatibility is confirmed in the "Pin Arrangement" section (Section 1.3) and "Pin Functions" table (Section 1.4) of the DF36902GFHV Hardware Manual Rev. 3.00. Signal routing, power, and ground connections remain unchanged across variants - only memory type (flash vs. ROM) and marking differ, making DF36902GFHV a direct drop-in upgrade path.
What debug interfaces are supported by DF36902GFHV?
DF36902GFHV supports on-chip debugging via Renesas E7 and E8 emulators using the NMI pin and dedicated debug address space (H'2000–H'2FFF). The Hardware Manual specifies restrictions: NMI is reserved for emulator use, and certain memory regions (e.g., H'F980–H'FD7F) must not be accessed during emulation. DF36902GFHV does not include SWD or JTAG; its debug capability relies entirely on this proprietary emulator interface, which is fully integrated into Renesas' High-Performance Embedded Workshop toolchain.
