Product details

Overview

M30879FLBFP#U3 from Renesas Electronics is a 100-pin LQFP microcontroller in the M32C/87B group, featuring the M32C/80 CPU core, 512 KB flash ROM + 4 KB data flash, 31 KB RAM, and no CAN module. It operates at up to 32 MHz (VCC1 = 4.2–5.5 V), supports 10-bit A/D conversion across 26 channels in single-chip mode, and targets industrial motor control and office automation systems.

For engineers reviewing the M30879FLBFP#U3 datasheet, M30879FLBFP#U3 pinout, M30879FLBFP#U3 application, or M30879FLBFP#U3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 100-pin LQFP (PRQP0100JB-A) package, absence of CAN interfaces, 26-channel ADC capability, integrated 3-phase motor control timers, and support for external bus expansion with 16-Mbyte address space.

Technical Context

The M30879FLBFP#U3 implements the M32C/80 16-bit CPU core with 108 basic instructions and hardware multiplier (16×16→32-bit). It integrates dual DMAC units (DMAC and DMACII), five 16-bit Timer A modules with PWM and 2-phase encoder input, and six 16-bit Timer B modules for pulse measurement and period capture.

Its peripheral set includes five UARTs (UART0–UART4), one additional UART5, I²C, IrDA, HDLC, and optional IEBus - all without CAN functionality per M32C/87B specification. Power management includes wait and stop modes achieving 45 μA and 0.8 μA current draw respectively at 3.3 V.

Applications

Laser Printer Engine ControlIndustrial PLC I/O Module

Use Scenario: Real-time coordination of laser scanning motor, paper feed stepper, and toner delivery actuators in mid-volume laser printers.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary MCU executing motion control algorithms, managing 26-channel sensor inputs (temperature, position, current), and driving PWM outputs for motor phases.

Use Value: Integrated 3-phase inverter timers eliminate external gate driver logic; 100-pin QFP allows compact PCB layout with dedicated analog and high-speed digital routing.

Use Scenario: Local I/O conditioning and protocol translation in distributed industrial control nodes interfacing with field sensors and actuators.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone controller handling analog input sampling (10-bit ADC), discrete I/O scanning, and Modbus RTU over UART0/UART1.

Use Value: 31 KB RAM buffers multi-cycle scan data; UART peripherals support simultaneous RS-485 and RS-232 links without external transceivers.

Digital Copier Main BoardFactory Automation HMI Controller

Use Scenario: Central control unit managing document scanning, image processing pipeline handoff, and duplex paper path sequencing in networked copiers.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: System-on-chip managing DMA transfers between image sensor FIFO, internal RAM, and external frame buffer via 16-Mbyte external bus interface.

Use Value: External bus supports 8/16-bit data width and up to 7 wait states - enabling direct connection to low-cost SDRAM or NOR flash without glue logic.

Use Scenario: Embedded HMI controller for machine status display, parameter entry, and local alarm handling in CNC tooling stations.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dedicated UI processor running real-time graphics engine, polling touch keys (KI0–KI3), and updating segmented LCD via intelligent I/O PWM outputs.

Use Value: Built-in key input detection and 16-channel waveform generation drive multiplexed LCD segments directly - reducing BOM count by 3+ external drivers.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.

Alternative PartTechnical DifferenceApplication DifferenceSelection Advice
R5F566TEADFP32-bit RX66T core, 128 KB RAM, 1 MB flash, integrated FPU, no native IEBus supportHigher performance for servo loop computation; lacks IEBus required in legacy Japanese office equipmentSelect when migrating to modern 32-bit architecture with C++ toolchain support and no IEBus dependency
M30879FLAFPSame M32C/87A family, identical package and pinout, but includes 1-channel CAN 2.0B controllerEnables CAN-based fieldbus communication in motor drives where distributed node messaging is requiredChoose if CAN connectivity is needed and board layout must remain unchanged - pin-compatible upgrade path

Compared with R5F566TEADFP and M30879FLAFP, the M30879FLBFP#U3 provides optimal cost/performance for CAN-free industrial control where IEBus or legacy UART protocols dominate, while maintaining full software compatibility within the M32C/87 family.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating frequency and supply voltage range for the M30879FLBFP#U3?

The M30879FLBFP#U3 operates at up to 32 MHz when VCC1 is 4.2–5.5 V, with minimum instruction execution time of 31.3 ns. At lower voltage, it supports 24 MHz operation with VCC1 = 3.0–5.5 V. VCC2 must be 3.0 V to VCC1. These ratings are specified in the Renesas REJ03B0127-0151 datasheet Rev. 1.51.

Does the M30879FLBFP#U3 include a CAN controller?

No, the M30879FLBFP#U3 belongs to the M32C/87B subgroup, which explicitly excludes CAN functionality. Tables 1.5–1.7 and Note 5 in Figure 1.2 confirm that M32C/87B devices have zero CAN channels - unlike M32C/87 (2 channels) or M32C/87A (1 channel).

How many A/D converter channels does the M30879FLBFP#U3 support, and what is their resolution?

The M30879FLBFP#U3 supports 26 channels of 10-bit A/D conversion in single-chip mode, and 10 channels in memory expansion or microprocessor mode. All channels include sample-and-hold circuitry, as documented in Table 1.4 under "A/D Converter" for the 100-pin package.

What package type and pin count does the M30879FLBFP#U3 use?

The M30879FLBFP#U3 uses a 100-pin plastic QFP package with part code PRQP0100JB-A (JEDEC MS-026AC), 0.65 mm lead pitch, and 14 mm × 20 mm body dimensions. This is confirmed in Table 1.7 and Figure 1.1 of the Renesas datasheet REJ03B0127-0151.

Is on-chip debug supported for the M30879FLBFP#U3, and what capabilities does it provide?

Yes, the M30879FLBFP#U3 supports full on-chip debug including real-time program trace, hardware breakpoints, memory inspection, and in-system flash reprogramming. These features are enabled via the dedicated debug interface and are listed under "Debug functions" in Table 1.4 of the official Renesas documentation.
