Product details
Overview
HD407A4369 from Renesas Electronics is a 4-bit ZTAT™ PROM-based microcontroller in the HMCS400 family, featuring 16,384-word PROM, 512 × 4-bit RAM, an 8-bit 12-channel A/D converter, and four low-power modes (standby, stop, watch, subactive). It operates with a minimum instruction cycle time of 0.47 µs at 8.5 MHz and targets embedded control applications requiring rapid prototyping and production-ready firmware loading.
For engineers reviewing the HD407A4369 datasheet, HD407A4369 pinout, HD407A4369 application, or HD407A4369 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions for FP-64B/DP-64S packages, real-world use cases in industrial sensing and appliance control, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and packaging differences.
Technical Context
The HD407A4369 integrates a 4-bit CPU core with 14-bit program counter, 10-bit stack pointer, and dual ALU architecture supporting bit-manipulation instructions (SEM/SEMD, REM/REMD, TM/TMD) for efficient I/O and interrupt handling. Its memory subsystem includes PROM-programmable 16-kword × 10-bit ROM and 512-digit × 4-bit RAM mapped across dedicated register, data, and stack regions.
It implements three independent timers (A/B/C), one input capture timer (TOC), one event counter (EVNB), an 8-bit clock-synchronous serial interface (SCK/SI/SO), and alarm output (BUZZ), all synchronized to a selectable system clock derived from either main oscillator (up to 8.5 MHz) or 32.768-kHz subclock (X1/X2).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 4-bit microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| HD40A4369 | Same 16-kword ROM capacity and 0.47 µs instruction cycle, but uses mask ROM instead of PROM; no field-programmable capability | Requires upfront mask design; unsuitable for iterative development or small-batch customization | Select HD40A4369 only for high-volume production where firmware is fixed and NRE cost amortization justifies mask ROM |
| HD404369 | Same architecture and pinout, but slower 0.8 µs instruction cycle (fOSC = 5 MHz); uses standard ROM, not ZTAT™ PROM | Lacks field-programmability and high-speed timing; limited to cost-sensitive, non-upgradable designs | Choose HD404369 when budget constraints outweigh need for rapid prototyping or firmware updates |
Compared with HD407A4369, HD40A4369 offers identical speed and I/O but requires mask ROM commitment, while HD404369 trades programmability and performance for lower unit cost - making HD407A4369 the optimal choice for development agility and production flexibility.

FAQ
What is the programming method for HD407A4369 PROM?
The HD407A4369 uses ZTAT™ (Zero Turnaround Time) PROM technology compatible with standard 27256 EPROM programmers. Firmware is written externally using a PROM writer before soldering; no on-chip programming circuitry or bootloader is present. This enables fast debug-to-production cycles without mask ROM lead times. HD407A4369 does not support in-circuit reprogramming.
Does HD407A4369 support 3.3 V operation?
Yes, HD407A4369 operates across a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 6.0 V, fully supporting 3.3 V nominal systems. The A/D converter's AVCC and AVSS pins must be tied to the same 3.3 V rail as VCC, with a 0.1 µF bypass capacitor between AVCC and AVSS if noise isolation is required. All I/O pins are 3.3 V tolerant in this configuration.
How many interrupt sources does HD407A4369 have, and how are they prioritized?
HD407A4369 has seven interrupt sources: two external (INT0, INT1), three timer-based (timer A/B/C), one A/D conversion complete, and one serial interface. Priority is fixed in hardware: reset > INT0 > timer A > INT1 > timer B > A/D > timer C > serial. Each source has dedicated mask (IMx) and flag (IFx) bits in the RAM-mapped interrupt control area ($000–$003).
What is the function of the BUZZ pin on HD407A4369?
The BUZZ pin (D3) is a dedicated square-wave output capable of driving piezoelectric buzzers or indicator LEDs directly. Its frequency and duty cycle are controlled by timer C and the BUZZ enable bit in the miscellaneous register (MIS). HD407A4369 does not require external oscillators or drivers for basic audible alerts - simplifying bill-of-materials in appliance and industrial HMI designs.
Can HD407A4369 operate without an external crystal?
Yes, HD407A4369 can operate using only its internal ceramic-resonator-compatible oscillator (OSC1/OSC2) or even an external clock signal applied to OSC1. The 32.768-kHz subclock (X1/X2) is optional and only required for watch mode or real-time clock functions. For basic operation, a 4–8.5 MHz ceramic resonator suffices - eliminating crystal BOM cost and layout complexity.
