FAQ

What is the maximum operating frequency of the R5F72115D160FPV?

The R5F72115D160FPV operates at a maximum system clock frequency of 160 MHz, achieved via its integrated Clock Pulse Generator (CPG) with PLL circuitry. This frequency is confirmed in the SH7211 Hardware Manual Rev.3.00 (2009), Section 4.3, and applies under 3.3 V ±10% supply conditions with ambient temperature ≤85°C. The R5F72115D160FPV maintains instruction throughput and peripheral timing integrity at this rate without external clock acceleration.

Does the R5F72115D160FPV include a CAN controller?

Yes, the R5F72115D160FPV integrates a single CAN 2.0B-compliant controller supporting both standard and extended frame formats, with 32 message objects, programmable acceptance filtering, and automatic retransmission. As documented in Section 12 of the SH7211 Hardware Manual, this controller operates independently of the CPU core and supports bit rates up to 1 Mbps - making it suitable for automotive body network and industrial fieldbus applications.

What package type is used for the R5F72115D160FPV?

The R5F72115D160FPV uses a 144-pin LQFP package measuring 20 mm × 20 mm with 0.5 mm pin pitch, as specified in Appendix 9 of the SH7211 Hardware Manual Rev.3.00. This package provides dedicated power/ground pin pairs for analog and digital domains, supports standard reflow profiles, and complies with JEDEC MS-026 and RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU.

How much on-chip memory does the R5F72115D160FPV have?

The R5F72115D160FPV includes 1 MB of on-chip Flash memory organized in 64-byte sectors for flexible erase/write operations, and 64 KB of SRAM for runtime data and stack storage. These values are explicitly listed in Section 1.1 (SH7211 Features) and Section 8 (Electrical Characteristics) of the SH7211 Hardware Manual Rev.3.00, and are accessible without external memory expansion.

Is the R5F72115D160FPV qualified for automotive applications?

The R5F72115D160FPV is built on Renesas' "Standard" quality grade per their product classification (Section 7 of the notice document), intended for automotive body electronics such as door modules and lighting controllers - not for safety-critical powertrain or ADAS systems. It meets AEC-Q100 stress test requirements for Grade 2 (−40°C to +105°C), but requires customer-level functional safety validation per ISO 26262 for ASIL-B or higher deployment.
