Renesas R5F563NFDGFC#V0

Overview

R5F563NFDGFC#V0 from Renesas is a 100 MHz 32-bit RXv1 CPU-based microcontroller in the RX63N Group, featuring integrated Ethernet MAC (10/100 Mbps), full-speed USB 2.0 host/function/OTG, three CAN channels, 2 MB on-chip flash, 256 KB SRAM, 32 KB data flash, 12-bit and 10-bit A/D converters (21 + 8 channels), dual 10-bit D/A outputs, hardware AES encryption (DEU), and RTC with battery backup - deployed in industrial gateways requiring deterministic real-time control and networked I/O.

For engineers reviewing the R5F563NFDGFC#V0 datasheet, R5F563NFDGFC#V0 pinout, R5F563NFDGFC#V0 application, or R5F563NFDGFC#V0 equivalent, this MCU delivers verified Ethernet MAC + USB + CAN coexistence, IEEE 802.3-compliant MII/RMII interface, 176-pin LQFP package with 134 general-purpose I/Os (18 × 5-V tolerant), and IEC60730 safety support including CRC, self-diagnostic A/D, and oscillation-stop detection.

Technical Context

The R5F563NFDGFC#V0 implements the RXv1 core with Harvard architecture, 5-stage pipeline, and variable-length instructions enabling ultra-compact code density. It integrates dedicated DMA controllers - DMAC (4 channels), EXDMAC (2 channels), and EDMAC (1 channel for Ethernet) - to offload CPU bandwidth during high-throughput peripheral transfers.

Its clock system supports multiple independent domains: ICLK (up to 100 MHz for CPU), PCLK (up to 50 MHz for peripherals), FCLK (50 MHz for FlashIF), and BCLK (50 MHz for external bus), each configurable via PLL or internal oscillators (HOCO/LOCO). The MPU enforces memory protection across 8 regions with configurable access attributes.

The R5F563NFDGFC#V0 operates at a maximum frequency of 100 MHz and delivers 165 DMIPS of processing performance using the 32-bit RXv1 CPU core. It includes a single-precision IEEE-754 floating-point unit and a 32×32-bit hardware multiplier that executes in one CPU clock cycle - enabling efficient signal processing and control loop execution in real-time industrial applications.

Does the R5F563NFDGFC#V0 support Ethernet connectivity, and what interface standards does it implement?

Yes, the R5F563NFDGFC#V0 integrates a full IEEE 802.3-compliant Ethernet MAC supporting both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps operation in full- and half-duplex modes. It implements MII (Media Independent Interface) and RMII (Reduced MII) standards, with dedicated EDMAC hardware to offload frame transmission/reception - allowing the R5F563NFDGFC#V0 to serve as the primary network interface in industrial gateways without external PHY dependency beyond level-shifting.

What are the memory resources available on the R5F563NFDGFC#V0?

The R5F563NFDGFC#V0 provides 2 MB of on-chip flash memory (100 MHz, zero-wait-state access), 256 KB of SRAM (100 MHz, zero-wait), and 32 KB of reprogrammable data flash rated for 100,000 erase/write cycles. This memory configuration supports dual-bank firmware updates, large protocol stack buffers, and real-time data logging - all without external memory expansion.

How does the R5F563NFDGFC#V0 support functional safety standards like IEC60730?

The R5F563NFDGFC#V0 includes multiple hardware features certified for IEC60730 Class B compliance: oscillation-stop detection, clock frequency measurement (MCK), CRC calculator with three polynomial options, independent watchdog timer (IWDT), self-diagnostic A/D converter test, and memory protection unit (MPU). These capabilities enable developers to meet safety requirements without adding external supervisory ICs - reducing BOM cost and board space.

What is the package type and thermal specification of the R5F563NFDGFC#V0?

The R5F563NFDGFC#V0 is housed in a 176-pin LQFP package (PLQP0176KB-A), measuring 24 mm × 24 mm with 0.5 mm pitch and an exposed thermal pad. It is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C (D version), with thermal resistance θJA ≈ 32°C/W under standard JEDEC conditions - enabling reliable operation in enclosed control cabinets without forced airflow.
