Renesas R5F564MFHGFP#V1

Overview

R5F564MFHGFP#V1 from Renesas is a 32-bit RXv2 microcontroller operating at up to 120 MHz (240 DMIPS), featuring on-chip FPU, 4 MB code flash, 512 KB SRAM, IEEE 1588-compliant dual Ethernet MAC, full-speed USB 2.0 with battery charging, and CAN v2.0B - deployed in industrial gateways requiring deterministic real-time control, secure connectivity, and multi-protocol edge processing.

For engineers reviewing the R5F564MFHGFP#V1 datasheet, R5F564MFHGFP#V1 pinout, R5F564MFHGFP#V1 application, or R5F564MFHGFP#V1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 177-pin TFLGA package, dual Ethernet + USB + CAN coexistence, 12-bit dual A/D with self-diagnostic, hardware AES/SHA encryption, and IEC60730 safety support for functional safety-critical firmware updates and runtime monitoring.

Technical Context

The R5F564MFHGFP#V1 implements the RXv2 CISC Harvard architecture with 5-stage pipeline, single-cycle 32×32 multiplier, and IEEE-754-compliant FPU - enabling high-precision motor control and sensor fusion. Its clock system integrates PLL, HOCO (16/18/20 MHz), LOCO (240 kHz), and IWDT-dedicated oscillator, with independent PCLKA (120 MHz), PCLKB (60 MHz), and ADCLK domains for peripheral timing isolation.

It supports IEC60730 Class B compliance via oscillation-stop detection, CRC accelerator, IWDTa with window function, register write protection, and A/D self-diagnostic - all mapped to dedicated hardware blocks rather than software emulation. The ELC (Event Link Controller) enables CPU-free inter-module triggering across 119 internal signals, reducing latency in time-critical sequences like PWM dead-time compensation and synchronized A/D capture.

The R5F564MFHGFP#V1 operates at a maximum frequency of 120 MHz and delivers 240 DMIPS performance. This is achieved through the RXv2 CPU core's 5-stage pipeline, single-cycle 32×32 multiplier, and efficient instruction set - enabling real-time execution of complex control algorithms in industrial edge devices where deterministic latency is critical.

Does the R5F564MFHGFP#V1 support IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol hardware acceleration?

Yes, the R5F564MFHGFP#V1 integrates the EPTPC (PTP Controller for Ethernet) block, which provides hardware timestamping for IEEE 1588-2008 frames with sub-microsecond accuracy. This capability is essential for time-synchronized applications such as distributed motion control and substation automation, and it operates independently of CPU load - ensuring consistent timing even under heavy processing demand.

What package type and pin count does the R5F564MFHGFP#V1 use?

The R5F564MFHGFP#V1 uses the PTLG0177KA-A package: an 8×8 mm, 0.5-mm pitch, 177-ball thin fine-pitch land grid array (TFLGA). It provides 127 general-purpose I/O pins (19 × 5-V tolerant), dedicated power/ground balls, and optimized signal routing for high-speed Ethernet and USB interfaces - making it ideal for compact, thermally demanding industrial PCB layouts.

How many Ethernet MAC channels and CAN modules does the R5F564MFHGFP#V1 include?

The R5F564MFHGFP#V1 includes two IEEE 802.3-compliant Ethernet MAC channels (supporting MII/RMII) and three independent CAN modules compliant with ISO 11898-1. Each CAN module supports 32 mailboxes, enabling concurrent handling of multiple CAN buses - a key requirement for industrial gateways bridging factory floor networks and enterprise IT systems.

Is hardware encryption supported on the R5F564MFHGFP#V1, and what algorithms are implemented?
