Product details
Overview
R5F564MLCDLC#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 (3 channels), and 12-bit A/D (29 total channels). It targets industrial networking gateways requiring deterministic real-time control, secure firmware updates, and multi-protocol connectivity.
For engineers reviewing the R5F564MLCDLC#21 datasheet, R5F564MLCDLC#21 pinout, R5F564MLCDLC#21 application, or R5F564MLCDLC#21 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 177-pin TFLGA package, dual Ethernet + USB + CAN coexistence, 120 MHz real-time performance with 240 DMIPS, and hardware-accelerated AES/SHA encryption for IEC 60730 Class B compliance.
Technical Context
The R5F564MLCDLC#21 implements the RXv2 CPU core with CISC Harvard architecture, 5-stage pipeline, and variable-length instructions enabling ultra-compact code. It integrates dual independent Ethernet controllers (ETHERC) with IEEE 1588 PTP support via EPTPC and dedicated EDMAC channels - one channel per ETHERC plus one for EPTPC - enabling time-synchronized packet timestamping without CPU intervention.
Its clock system combines external crystal (8–24 MHz), internal HOCO (16/18/20 MHz), LOCO (240 kHz), and PLL to generate independent clocks: ICLK up to 120 MHz for CPU, PCLKA up to 120 MHz for high-speed peripherals (Ethernet, USB, AES), and PCLKB up to 60 MHz for timers and ADC. The device supports four low-power modes and RTC operation from VBATT during deep software standby.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 32-bit industrial MCU applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F565NEDFC#30 | Same RX65N Group; 120 MHz, 2 MB flash, 384 KB SRAM, single Ethernet, no USB battery charging | Lacks dual Ethernet and USB BC 1.2; supports only one ETHERC channel and standard USB (no charging) | Select when cost-sensitive designs require single-network redundancy and omit peripheral charging capability |
| R7FA6M2AF3CFP#AA0 | RX72M Group; 240 MHz, 2 MB flash, 384 KB SRAM, single Ethernet, USB HS, no CAN FD | Higher CPU speed but reduced peripheral count; USB 2.0 high-speed (480 Mbps) instead of FS + BC; no CAN FD support | Choose for compute-intensive motion control where USB camera streaming outweighs multi-CAN needs |
Compared with R5F564MLCDLC#21, the R5F565NEDFC#30 offers lower BOM cost and smaller footprint but sacrifices dual-Ethernet determinism and USB charging; the R7FA6M2AF3CFP#AA0 delivers higher throughput for vision tasks yet lacks the CAN/Ethernet coexistence critical for industrial gateways.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and CPU architecture of the R5F564MLCDLC#21?
The R5F564MLCDLC#21 operates at a maximum frequency of 120 MHz using the 32-bit RXv2 CPU core with CISC Harvard architecture, 5-stage pipeline, and variable-length instructions. It delivers 240 DMIPS and includes a single-precision IEEE-754 floating-point unit. This architecture enables deterministic real-time execution critical for industrial control loops and protocol stacks running on the R5F564MLCDLC#21.
Does the R5F564MLCDLC#21 support IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol?
Yes, the R5F564MLCDLC#21 integrates a dedicated PTP controller (EPTPC) linked to both Ethernet MACs, enabling hardware timestamping of PTP event messages at the physical layer. It supports one-step and two-step clock synchronization, transparent clock operation, and timestamp insertion/removal - all without CPU overhead. This makes the R5F564MLCDLC#21 suitable for time-critical industrial Ethernet implementations like EtherCAT and PROFINET IRT.
How many Ethernet and CAN interfaces does the R5F564MLCDLC#21 provide?
The R5F564MLCDLC#21 features two independent IEEE 802.3-compliant Ethernet MACs (ETHERC) and three ISO 11898-1-compliant CAN modules, each with 32 mailboxes. This dual-Ethernet + triple-CAN capability allows simultaneous operation of redundant networks, protocol bridging (e.g., CAN-to-Ethernet), or segregated traffic domains - a key differentiator of the R5F564MLCDLC#21 in gateway applications.
What security features are included in the R5F564MLCDLC#21 for IEC 60730 compliance?
The R5F564MLCDLC#21 includes hardware-assisted IEC 60730 Class B compliance features: oscillation-stop detection, CRC calculation unit, windowed independent watchdog timer (IWDTa), A/D converter self-diagnostic function, and register write protection. These features are implemented in silicon and documented in Renesas' Functional Safety Manual for RX64M, reducing validation effort for the R5F564MLCDLC#21 in safety-critical industrial equipment.
What is the package type and pin count of the R5F564MLCDLC#21?
The R5F564MLCDLC#21 uses the PTLG0177KA-A package: a 177-pin Thin Fine-Pitch Land Grid Array with 8 mm × 8 mm body size, 0.5 mm pitch, and 0.75 mm height. This compact, high-I/O-count package supports the full peripheral set - including dual Ethernet MII, USB, CAN, and 127 general-purpose I/O pins - making it ideal for space-constrained industrial control modules using the R5F564MLCDLC#21.
