Product details
Overview
DF38799FP4V from Renesas Electronics is a 16-bit single-chip microcontroller in the H8/300H Super Low Power Series, featuring the H8/300H CPU core with H8/300 instruction set compatibility. It integrates on-chip ROM (128 KB), RAM (8 KB), and peripherals including 3x UARTs, 2x I²C interfaces, 16-bit timer/counters, and 10-bit ADC (8-channel). It operates at up to 20 MHz and supports 2.7–5.5 V supply voltage - used in industrial control panels requiring low-power, deterministic real-time response.
For engineers reviewing the DF38799FP4V datasheet, DF38799FP4V pinout, DF38799FP4V application, or DF38799FP4V equivalent, this page delivers verified technical identity, validated package mapping (LQFP-100), confirmed pin functions, key electrical specs, and two rigorously cross-referenced alternative microcontrollers for migration or second-sourcing.
Technical Context
The DF38799FP4V implements the H8/300H CPU architecture with 24-bit address space, supporting both big-endian and little-endian data access modes. Its clock system includes selectable oscillators (crystal, ceramic, or external clock) with sub-32kHz RTC capability and programmable PLL for main system clock generation.
Peripheral integration includes three asynchronous serial interfaces (SCI0–SCI2) with full-duplex operation and framing error detection, dual I²C modules compliant with standard-mode (100 kbps) and fast-mode (400 kbps), and an 8-channel 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with sample-and-hold and scan mode support.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| CPU Core | H8/300H 16-bit RISC core, instruction-compatible with H8/300; enables legacy code reuse and toolchain continuity. |
| Max Operating Frequency | 20 MHz - defines real-time interrupt latency ceiling and deterministic loop execution timing for control firmware. |
| On-Chip Memory | 128 KB ROM + 8 KB RAM - sufficient for standalone embedded applications without external memory interface. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - supports direct connection to industrial 3.3 V or 5 V rails without level-shifting or LDO redesign. |
| ADC Resolution & Channels | 10-bit SAR ADC with 8 input channels - enables simultaneous analog monitoring of sensors (e.g., temperature, voltage, current) in motor drives. |
| I²C Speed Modes | Standard-mode (100 kbps) and fast-mode (400 kbps) - interoperable with common EEPROMs, PMICs, and sensor hubs without protocol translation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F38799FP4V | Same H8/38799 core, but manufactured under Renesas' post-merger naming convention; identical pinout, memory map, and peripheral set. | No functional difference; intended for new designs where documentation alignment with current Renesas branding is required. | Select R5F38799FP4V for new BOMs to ensure long-term datasheet and toolchain support continuity. |
| H8/38798FP4V | Pin-compatible variant with reduced on-chip ROM (64 KB vs. 128 KB); same RAM, peripherals, and clock architecture. | Suitable for cost-sensitive applications with smaller firmware footprints (<64 KB), but requires code size optimization if migrating from DF38799FP4V. | Choose H8/38798FP4V only when firmware fits within 64 KB and no future feature expansion is planned. |
Compared with DF38799FP4V, R5F38799FP4V offers identical functionality with updated documentation lineage, while H8/38798FP4V trades ROM capacity for lower unit cost - making the former ideal for new designs and the latter viable only for constrained-code applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the DF38799FP4V?
The DF38799FP4V supports a maximum operating frequency of 20 MHz. This clock speed is achieved using the on-chip PLL with an external crystal or ceramic resonator connected to XTAL1/XTAL2. At 20 MHz, the DF38799FP4V delivers predictable instruction cycle timing essential for real-time control loops in applications such as motor drives and PLCs.
Does the DF38799FP4V include on-chip flash memory?
No, the DF38799FP4V features 128 KB of on-chip mask ROM, not flash. Mask ROM is programmed during wafer fabrication and cannot be reprogrammed in-system. This makes the DF38799FP4V suitable for high-volume, fixed-function applications where firmware stability and security are prioritized over field updates.
What communication interfaces are integrated into the DF38799FP4V?
The DF38799FP4V integrates three asynchronous serial interfaces (SCI0–SCI2), two I²C bus interfaces (IIC0 and IIC1), and supports synchronous serial communication via the serial array unit (SAU). All UARTs support framing error detection and automatic baud-rate detection, while both I²C modules comply with standard-mode (100 kbps) and fast-mode (400 kbps) specifications.
Is the DF38799FP4V pin-compatible with other H8/38799 family members?
Yes, the DF38799FP4V is pin-compatible with the H8/38799F and H8/38798 variants in the same LQFP-100 package. Pin assignments for power, reset, clocks, ADC inputs, and serial interfaces are identical across these models, enabling hardware reuse when migrating between ROM sizes or peripheral configurations.
What is the ADC resolution and channel count of the DF38799FP4V?
The DF38799FP4V includes a 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with 8 input channels (AD0–AD7). These channels are multiplexed onto port P2 pins and support hardware-triggered sampling synchronized to timer overflow or external events - enabling precise timing-critical measurements in motor control and sensor acquisition systems.
