FAQ

What is the maximum operating frequency and core type of the R5F563NKDGFP#V0?

The R5F563NKDGFP#V0 operates at a maximum frequency of 100 MHz and uses the 32-bit RX CPU core with CISC Harvard architecture, 5-stage pipeline, and variable-length instruction set. It delivers 165 DMIPS and includes a single-precision IEEE-754 floating-point unit. This core enables deterministic real-time execution critical for industrial control loops and protocol stack timing in the R5F563NKDGFP#V0.

Does the R5F563NKDGFP#V0 support Ethernet connectivity, and what interface standards does it implement?

Yes, the R5F563NKDGFP#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) physical layer interfaces per IEEE 802.3u, and includes Magic Packet™ wake-on-LAN detection. The dedicated EDMAC peripheral handles descriptor-based packet transfers, reducing CPU load in the R5F563NKDGFP#V0.

What safety and security features are built into the R5F563NKDGFP#V0 for industrial applications?

The R5F563NKDGFP#V0 includes hardware-level IEC60730 Class B compliance features: oscillation-stoppage detection, hardware CRC calculator (with three polynomials), independent watchdog timer (IWDT), and self-diagnostic A/D converter test. It also provides AES-128/192/256 encryption/decryption (ECB/CBC modes) via the DEU module. These features directly support functional safety and secure firmware update requirements in the R5F563NKDGFP#V0.

What are the memory resources available on the R5F563NKDGFP#V0?

The R5F563NKDGFP#V0 includes 2 MB of on-chip flash memory (accessible at 100 MHz with zero wait states), 192 KB of SRAM (also zero-wait), and 32 KB of reprogrammable data flash rated for 100,000 erase/write cycles. The flash supports background programming/erasing operations, enabling live firmware updates without halting application execution in the R5F563NKDGFP#V0.

Which package and pin count does the R5F563NKDGFP#V0 use, and what are its thermal characteristics?

The R5F563NKDGFP#V0 uses the PLQP0100KB-A package: a 100-pin LQFP with 14 × 14 mm body size, 0.5 mm pin pitch, and exposed thermal pad. It is rated for industrial temperature range (-40 to +85°C) and operates from a single 2.7–3.6 V supply. Its low-power design draws only 500 µA/MHz in active mode, making thermal management straightforward in the R5F563NKDGFP#V0.
