Product details
Overview
HD4074629H from Renesas Electronics is a 16-kword PROM-based HMCS400-series 8-bit microcontroller with integrated DTMF generator, LCD controller/driver (52×4), 4-channel 8-bit A/D converter, and four low-power modes. It operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V and supports 4-MHz ceramic or crystal main oscillator for telephony keypad tone generation and embedded display control.
For engineers reviewing the HD4074629H datasheet, HD4074629H pinout, HD4074629H application, or HD4074629H equivalent, this device is selected for cost-sensitive, low-power DTMF-enabled systems requiring on-chip PROM programmability, LCD drive capability, and mixed-signal integration without external tone generation circuitry.
Technical Context
The HD4074629H implements the HMCS400 CPU core with 1,876-digit × 4-bit RAM, four independent timer/counters (including two PWM-capable outputs), and an 8-bit input capture circuit. Its DTMF generator produces standard row/column tones via dedicated TONER and TONEC pins with VTref reference voltage support.
It integrates a clock-synchronous 8-bit serial interface, eleven interrupt sources (five external with double-edge detection), and LCD segment driver capable of driving up to 52 segments and 4 commons. The MCU supports MCU/PROM mode exclusively - unlike mask-ROM variants - enabling field-programmable firmware deployment.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller-with-DTMF applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| HD404629RH | 16-kword mask ROM; no field-programmable capability; identical pinout and peripheral set. | Suitable only for high-volume, fixed-function deployments where firmware never changes post-production. | Select HD404629RH only when firmware is finalized early and NRE cost amortization justifies mask ROM investment. |
| HD4074629FS | Same PROM architecture and functionality; differs only in FP-100A package (slightly smaller footprint, same pin assignment). | Compatible with HD4074629H in layout but requires requalification for thermal and mechanical performance in high-vibration environments. | Choose HD4074629FS when board space is constrained and FP-100A's 0.5-mm finer pitch is acceptable for assembly process capability. |
Compared with HD404629RH, HD4074629H offers field-programmable flexibility at the cost of higher unit price and single-write limitation; compared with HD4074629FS, it provides identical electrical behavior with enhanced thermal dissipation due to FP-100B's larger pad geometry - critical for sustained LCD drive current.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by HD4074629H?
The HD4074629H supports a maximum main oscillator frequency of 4 MHz using a ceramic resonator or crystal. At this frequency, its minimum instruction cycle time is 1 µs, enabling deterministic timing for DTMF tone generation and real-time interrupt handling. External clock sources up to 4 MHz are also accepted on the OSC1 pin.
Does HD4074629H support in-system programming (ISP)?
No, HD4074629H does not support in-system programming. It uses PROM technology programmed once using an external PROM writer prior to soldering. Programming must occur before mounting on the PCB, and no field updates or rewrites are possible after initial programming.
Can HD4074629H drive a 1/4-bias LCD panel?
Yes, HD4074629H supports 1/4-bias LCD operation through its integrated LCD controller/driver. The device provides four common outputs (COM1–COM4) and up to 52 segment outputs (SEG1–SEG52), allowing direct connection to standard 1/4-bias STN LCD modules without external bias resistors or driver ICs.
What is the purpose of the VTref pin on HD4074629H?
The VTref pin on HD4074629H serves as the reference voltage input for the internal DTMF generator circuit. It must be biased between GND and VCC to ensure accurate amplitude and spectral purity of generated DTMF tones. Typical use connects VTref to a resistor divider from VCC to GND to set nominal 2.5 V reference.
How many interrupt sources does HD4074629H provide, and which are edge-configurable?
HD4074629H provides eleven interrupt sources: five external (INT0–INT4) and six internal. Among external interrupts, three (INT0, INT1, INT2) support double-edge detection via configuration registers ESR1 and ESR2, enabling responsive wake-up from stop mode on keypad press regardless of signal polarity.
