Product details
Overview
R4F24248NVFAU from Renesas Electronics is a 16-bit single-chip microcontroller in the H8S/2400 Series, featuring an H8S CPU core, 512 KB on-chip Flash memory, 32 KB RAM, and integrated peripherals including TPU, SCI, WDT, and CPG. It operates at up to 33 MHz, supports 5 V operation, and targets industrial control and embedded instrumentation applications requiring deterministic real-time response.
For engineers reviewing the R4F24248NVFAU datasheet, R4F24248NVFAU pinout, R4F24248NVFAU application, or R4F24248NVFAU equivalent, key selection criteria include Flash endurance (10,000 write/erase cycles), operating temperature range (−40°C to +85°C), and compatibility with H8S/2424 Group development tools and software libraries.
Technical Context
The R4F24248NVFAU implements the H8S CPU architecture with 24-bit address space, supporting both normal and advanced operating modes. It integrates a clock pulse generator (CPG) with internal oscillator and PLL options, enabling flexible clock source configuration for system timing control.
Peripheral subsystems include a 16-bit Timer Pulse Unit (TPU) with input capture/output compare functions, multiple Serial Communication Interfaces (SCI) supporting asynchronous communication, and a watchdog timer (WDT) with windowed timeout capability - all directly memory-mapped and controllable via special function registers (SFRs).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R4F24248NVFAV | Same die, identical Flash/RAM/peripherals, but packaged in 100-pin PQFP (0.65 mm pitch) instead of LQFP | Requires PCB footprint redesign; not suitable for high-density layouts optimized for fine-pitch LQFP | Select R4F24248NVFAV only when legacy PQFP assembly infrastructure is in place and thermal performance requirements are less stringent |
| R4F24244NVFAU | Same package and pinout, but with 256 KB Flash and 16 KB RAM - otherwise identical peripheral set and timing specs | Lower memory capacity limits firmware complexity and data logging depth; suitable for cost-sensitive fixed-function controllers | Choose R4F24244NVFAU where application code size remains below 200 KB and no runtime firmware updates are required |
Compared with R4F24248NVFAU, R4F24248NVFAV offers identical functionality in a legacy PQFP package requiring different board layout, while R4F24244NVFAU provides a memory-reduced variant with full pin compatibility - both serve distinct cost, layout, and scalability trade-offs without altering core real-time control capabilities.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the R4F24248NVFAU?
The R4F24248NVFAU supports a maximum CPU clock frequency of 33 MHz when using the on-chip PLL with an external crystal input. This yields a 30.3 ns instruction cycle time for critical real-time tasks. Operation at this speed requires stable 5 V supply and proper decoupling per Renesas hardware design guidelines. The R4F24248NVFAU maintains full peripheral functionality-including TPU and SCI-at maximum clock rate.
Does the R4F24248NVFAU include hardware debug support?
Yes, the R4F24248NVFAU integrates on-chip debugging circuitry compatible with Renesas E8 and E8a emulator systems. Debug signals (DCK/DIO) are assigned to dedicated pins and support non-intrusive breakpoints, real-time register/memory inspection, and flash programming. No external JTAG adapter is required, and the R4F24248NVFAU retains full debug capability even when operating in low-power stop mode with selected wake-up sources enabled.
What is the Flash memory endurance specification for the R4F24248NVFAU?
The R4F24248NVFAU specifies 10,000 write/erase cycles for its 512 KB on-chip Flash memory, with data retention guaranteed for 20 years at 85°C. Each 1 KB block can be erased independently, enabling efficient firmware updates and parameter storage. The R4F24248NVFAU also includes built-in ECC logic that corrects single-bit errors and detects double-bit errors during read operations - essential for maintaining firmware integrity in mission-critical applications.
Can the R4F24248NVFAU operate from a 3.3 V supply?
No, the R4F24248NVFAU is specified exclusively for 4.5 V to 5.5 V operation and is not 3.3 V tolerant. Its I/O structure, internal regulators, and Flash programming voltage requirements are designed for 5 V systems. Attempting to power the R4F24248NVFAU at 3.3 V will result in undefined behavior, failure to execute instructions, or inability to program Flash. For 3.3 V designs, consider Renesas' RX or RA families instead of the R4F24248NVFAU.
Is the R4F24248NVFAU pin-compatible with other H8S/2424 Group members?
Yes, the R4F24248NVFAU shares identical pin assignment, electrical characteristics, and peripheral register mapping with other 100-pin LQFP variants in the H8S/2424 Group - including R4F24244NVFAU and R4F24240NVFAU. This allows direct substitution within the same footprint for memory- or feature-scaling purposes, provided software accounts for differences in Flash size, RAM size, or peripheral enablement. The R4F24248NVFAU maintains full functional compatibility across this group.
