Product details
Overview
HD4074618FS from Renesas Electronics is a 4-bit single-chip microcontroller with 8,192-word × 10-bit PROM, 1184-digit × 4-bit RAM, 30 I/O pins (including 10 high-current outputs), integrated DTMF generator, LCD controller/driver (32 segments × 4 commons), and dual oscillator support (400/800 kHz main + 32.768 kHz watch crystal). It targets embedded telecom and appliance control systems requiring low-power operation and on-chip human-interface peripherals.
For engineers reviewing the HD4074618FS datasheet, HD4074618FS pinout, HD4074618FS application, or HD4074618FS equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package mapping to FP-80B/TFP-80, confirmed DTMF/LCD/timer functionality, and two validated alternative parts for ZTAT™-capable 4-bit MCU migration paths.
Technical Context
The HD4074618FS implements the HMCS400 architecture with a 10-bit instruction word width, 14-bit program counter, and 16-level subroutine stack supporting CAL/RTN/RTNI instructions. Its CPU executes instructions at 10 µs (fOSC = 400 kHz) or 5 µs (fOSC = 800 kHz) cycle time, with dedicated ALU, W/X/Y/V registers, and status/carry flags.
It integrates three independent timer/counters (A/B/C), a clock-synchronous 8-bit serial interface (SCK/SI/SO), six interrupt sources (two external INT0/INT1, four internal), and a voltage comparator with two analog inputs (COMP0/COMP1) and reference pin (VCref). The DTMF circuit generates standard row/column tones via TONER/TONEC outputs using VTref as reference.

Applications
| Telecom Keypad Interface | Appliance Control Panel |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: DTMF tone generation and keypad scanning in cordless phone base stations or intercom systems.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 4-bit microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| HD404618FS | Mask ROM (8192-word × 10-bit), no field-programmability | Suitable for high-volume, fixed-function deployments where firmware never changes | Select HD404618FS when production volume justifies mask ROM NRE cost and firmware stability is guaranteed |
| HD4074618H | Identical PROM core but in FP-80A package (different lead pitch and thermal profile) | Requires PCB redesign due to FP-80A mechanical dimensions and soldering profile vs. FP-80B | Choose HD4074618H only if existing board uses FP-80A footprint or thermal constraints favor FP-80A's construction |
Compared with HD404618FS and HD4074618H, the HD4074618FS uniquely combines ZTAT™ PROM flexibility with FP-80B packaging - making it optimal for mid-volume, firmware-evolving applications where rework avoidance and rapid iteration outweigh mask ROM cost savings.

FAQ
What is the memory configuration of the HD4074618FS?
The HD4074618FS contains 8,192-word × 10-bit PROM for program storage and 1184-digit × 4-bit RAM organized into data area ($040–$2CF), LCD display buffer ($050–$06F), interrupt control bits ($000–$003), register flags ($020–$023), special function registers ($004–$01F, $024–$03F), and 64-digit stack area ($3C0–$3FF). This structure supports both general-purpose data handling and dedicated peripheral control without external memory.
Does the HD4074618FS support external crystal oscillators?
Yes, the HD4074618FS supports two oscillator configurations: a main system oscillator (400/800 kHz) via OSC1/OSC2 pins for ceramic resonator or external clock input, and a precision 32.768 kHz watch crystal via X1/X2 pins for real-time clock and low-power watch mode operation - both are fully functional and documented in the Rev. 6.0 datasheet.
How does the HD4074618FS implement DTMF generation?
The HD4074618FS implements DTMF generation using an on-chip digital tone synthesizer that outputs row and column frequencies simultaneously on TONER and TONEC pins, referenced to VTref. It conforms to ITU-T Q.23 specifications and requires no external filtering or amplification - the generated tones meet telephone network requirements when driven into standard line impedance.
What are the power management capabilities of the HD4074618FS?
The HD4074618FS provides four distinct low-power modes: Stop (CPU halted, RAM retained), Standby (all clocks stopped), Watch (32.768 kHz active only), and Subactive (DTMF and LCD controllers active while CPU sleeps). Each mode is entered via specific instruction sequences and offers measurable current reduction - down to µA-range in Watch mode - enabling multi-year battery life in portable applications.
Can the HD4074618FS drive an LCD display directly?
Yes, the HD4074618FS integrates a full 32-segment × 4-common LCD controller/driver with dedicated V1/V2/V3 bias supply pins and COM1–COM4/SEG1–SEG32 outputs. It drives static or multiplexed LCDs directly from on-chip RAM without external drivers, supporting up to 128 segments with software-configurable duty cycle and bias voltage levels.
