Product details
Overview
R5F5631DCDBG#U0 from Renesas is a 100 MHz 32-bit RX CPU-based microcontroller in the RX631 Group, featuring 1.5 Mbytes of on-chip flash memory, 128 Kbytes of SRAM, and 32 Kbytes of data flash. It integrates a 12-bit A/D converter (21 channels), 10-bit A/D converter (8 channels), dual 10-bit D/A converters, Ethernet MAC (not present in RX631 Group), USB 2.0 host/function/OTG, CAN, multiple SCI/I²C/RSPI interfaces, and hardware AES encryption. It targets industrial control systems requiring deterministic real-time response and secure firmware updates.
For engineers reviewing the R5F5631DCDBG#U0 datasheet, R5F5631DCDBG#U0 pinout, R5F5631DCDBG#U0 application, or R5F5631DCDBG#U0 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, package mapping to PLBG0176GA-A (176-pin LFBGA), functional differentiation from RX63N Group (no Ethernet controller), and validated alternative parts for migration or second-sourcing.
Technical Context
The R5F5631DCDBG#U0 implements the RXv1 CPU core with CISC Harvard architecture, 5-stage pipeline, and IEEE-754 single-precision FPU delivering 165 DMIPS at 100 MHz. It supports little-endian data arrangement and includes MPU, JTAG/FINE debug interfaces, and four low-power modes including deep software standby with RTC battery backup.
Its peripheral set excludes Ethernet MAC and EDMAC (distinguishing it from RX63N), but retains full USB 2.0 host/function/OTG (1 port each), three CAN channels (ISO 11898-1 compliant), 13 SCI channels (with LIN/Smart Card modes), four I²C interfaces (1 FM+), and parallel data capture unit (PDC) - all synchronized to PCLK up to 50 MHz.

This core enables deterministic real-time execution for industrial control tasks while supporting compact code density through variable-length instructions.
Does the R5F5631DCDBG#U0 include an Ethernet MAC controller?
No, the R5F5631DCDBG#U0 belongs to the RX631 Group and explicitly excludes the Ethernet MAC and EDMAC peripherals. That functionality is reserved for the RX63N Group (e.g., R5F563NDCDBG#U0). The R5F5631DCDBG#U0 retains USB 2.0 host/function/OTG, CAN, SCI, I²C, and RSPI for wired connectivity instead.
What package type and pin count does the R5F5631DCDBG#U0 use?
The R5F5631DCDBG#U0 is packaged in the PLBG0176GA-A: a 176-pin Low-Profile Fine-Pitch Ball Grid Array with 13 × 13 mm body size and 0.8 mm ball pitch. This LFBGA package supports 133 general-purpose I/O pins, 18 of which are 5-V tolerant, and includes dedicated power/ground balls for noise-sensitive analog sections.
How much on-chip memory does the R5F5631DCDBG#U0 provide?
The R5F5631DCDBG#U0 integrates 1.5 Mbytes of on-chip flash memory (zero-wait-state at 100 MHz), 128 Kbytes of SRAM (zero-wait-state at 100 MHz), and 32 Kbytes of reprogrammable data flash rated for 100,000 erase/write cycles. These memory resources support complex firmware, real-time data buffering, and secure key storage.
Is hardware encryption supported on the R5F5631DCDBG#U0?
Yes, the R5F5631DCDBG#U0 includes a dedicated Data Encryption Unit (DEU) supporting AES-128/192/256 encryption and decryption in ECB and CBC modes. This hardware accelerator offloads cryptographic operations from the CPU, enabling secure firmware updates, encrypted data logging, and TLS stack acceleration without compromising real-time performance.
