Overview
R5F564MGCDLC#21 from Renesas is a 120-MHz 32-bit RXv2 microcontroller with integrated FPU, 4 MB code flash, 512 KB SRAM, IEEE 1588-compliant dual Ethernet MAC, full-speed USB 2.0 with battery charging, CAN, SD host interface, and hardware AES/SHA encryption - designed for industrial gateways, networked PLCs, and real-time edge controllers requiring deterministic timing and secure connectivity.
For engineers reviewing the R5F564MGCDLC#21 datasheet, R5F564MGCDLC#21 pinout, R5F564MGCDLC#21 application, or R5F564MGCDLC#21 equivalent, this MCU delivers verified 240 DMIPS performance, on-chip ECC-protected RAM, dual-channel Ethernet with PTP timestamping, and IEC60730-compliant safety features - critical for functional safety certification in industrial automation and smart infrastructure designs.
Technical Context
The R5F564MGCDLC#21 implements the RXv2 CPU core with Harvard architecture, 5-stage pipeline, and variable-length instructions enabling ultra-compact code density. It integrates dual Ethernet MACs (ETHERC) with dedicated EPTPC for IEEE 1588-2008 PTP timestamping and EDMAC for descriptor-based DMA offload - supporting precise time synchronization in distributed control systems.
Its clock system combines external crystal oscillators (8–24 MHz), internal HOCO/LOCO, and PLL to generate independent clocks: ICLK up to 120 MHz for CPU execution, PCLKA up to 120 MHz for high-speed peripherals (Ethernet, USB, AES), and PCLKB up to 60 MHz for timers and ADC - enabling mixed-criticality scheduling without clock domain conflicts.
