It targets industrial automation controllers requiring deterministic real-time I/O, secure firmware updates, and multi-protocol connectivity.

For engineers reviewing the R5F564MLGGFP#V1 datasheet, R5F564MLGGFP#V1 pinout, R5F564MLGGFP#V1 application, or R5F564MLGGFP#V1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 176-pin LFBGA package (PLQP0176KB-A), -40°C to +105°C G-grade temperature rating, dual Ethernet with PTP hardware timestamping, on-chip AES/SHA encryption, and support for IEC60730 Class B safety compliance via built-in self-test features.

Technical Context

The R5F564MLGGFP#V1 implements the RXv2 CPU core with 240 DMIPS performance at 120 MHz, single-precision IEEE-754 FPU, and dual multiply-accumulate units. Its memory subsystem includes 4 MB zero-wait-state code flash, 64 KB reprogrammable data flash (100k cycles), 512 KB SRAM, and 32 KB ECC-protected RAM for safety-critical data.

Peripherals are clocked across four domains: ICLK (up to 120 MHz for CPU), PCLKA (up to 120 MHz for ETHERC/USBA/AES), PCLKB (up to 60 MHz for timers/SCI/USBb), and PCLKC/PCLKD (60 MHz for dual 12-bit ADC units). The device integrates ELC for hardware event chaining, eliminating CPU intervention for timer-triggered ADC sampling or PWM dead-time generation.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating frequency and CPU architecture of the R5F564MLGGFP#V1?

The R5F564MLGGFP#V1 operates at a maximum frequency of 120 MHz using the RXv2 32-bit CISC Harvard architecture with 5-stage pipeline. It delivers 240 DMIPS performance and includes single-precision IEEE-754 floating-point unit, two MAC units, and 32-bit multiplier with one-cycle execution. This architecture enables deterministic real-time response in motion control and industrial communication stacks.

Does the R5F564MLGGFP#V1 support IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol, and how is it implemented?

Yes, the R5F564MLGGFP#V1 includes dedicated hardware for IEEE 1588 via the EPTPC (PTP controller for Ethernet) module linked to both Ethernet MACs. It provides hardware timestamping of ingress/egress frames with sub-microsecond resolution, independent of CPU load. The implementation supports PTP version 2 (IEEE 1588-2008) and integrates with the ETHERC and EDMAC peripherals for zero-copy timestamp insertion and extraction.

What are the memory resources available on the R5F564MLGGFP#V1, and how are they used in practice?

The R5F564MLGGFP#V1 integrates 4 MB of zero-wait-state code flash for application and bootloader storage, 64 KB of data flash rated for 100,000 erase/write cycles for parameter logging or calibration data, 512 KB of general-purpose SRAM, and 32 KB of ECC-protected RAM for safety-critical variables. In practice, the data flash retains metering logs across power cycles, while ECC RAM stores PID coefficients and fault history in medical or industrial safety applications.

How does the R5F564MLGGFP#V1 support functional safety standards like IEC60730?

The R5F564MLGGFP#V1 includes multiple hardware features for IEC60730 Class B compliance: oscillation-stop detection, hardware CRC calculator, windowed independent watchdog timer (IWDTa), self-diagnostic A/D converter test modes, register write protection, and memory protection unit (MPU). These reduce software validation burden and eliminate need for external safety monitors in many industrial control designs.

What package type and thermal specifications apply to the R5F564MLGGFP#V1?

The R5F564MLGGFP#V1 uses the PLQP0176KB-A package: a 176-pin LFBGA with 24 × 24 mm body size and 0.5 mm ball pitch. It is rated for the industrial G-grade temperature range of –40°C to +105°C, qualified per JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3, and supports reflow soldering per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020. This package enables high I/O density while maintaining thermal reliability in enclosed industrial enclosures.
