Renesas R5F56609CGFN#30

Overview

R5F56609CGFN#30 from Renesas is a 32-bit RXv3 core MCU operating at up to 120 MHz, delivering 709 CoreMark performance, with 1 Mbyte on-chip code flash, 128 Kbytes SRAM, and 32 Kbytes data flash. It integrates CAN FD (ISO 11898-1:2015), 12-bit A/D (24 channels), dual 12-bit D/A, 4-channel analog comparator, RTC, and remote control signal receiver - deployed in industrial motor control and automotive body electronics.

For engineers reviewing the R5F56609CGFN#30 datasheet, R5F56609CGFN#30 pinout, R5F56609CGFN#30 application, or R5F56609CGFN#30 equivalent, key selection criteria include CAN FD compliance, 120-MHz real-time deterministic execution, IEC60730 safety support (MPU, CRC, self-diagnostic A/D), 5-V tolerant I/O, and sub-clock oscillator–enabled RTC operation.

Technical Context

The R5F56609CGFN#30 implements the RXv3 CPU core with single-cycle instruction execution, IEEE 754-compliant single-precision FPU, and 16 register banks for fast context switching. Its clock system supports independent domain scaling: ICLK up to 120 MHz for CPU, PCLKA up to 120 MHz for MTU3a/RSPI/SCI10–11, PCLKB up to 60 MHz for TMR/CMT/CMTW, and ADCLK up to 60 MHz for S12ADH.

Peripheral coordination is managed via the Event Link Controller (ELC), enabling 83 internal event signals to trigger module actions (e.g., MTU3a PWM output → A/D conversion start) without CPU intervention - critical for low-latency motor control and real-time sensor fusion in deep software standby mode.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating frequency and CoreMark score of the R5F56609CGFN#30?

The R5F56609CGFN#30 operates at a maximum frequency of 120 MHz and achieves 709 CoreMark performance. This benchmark reflects its RXv3 CPU core efficiency with single-cycle instruction execution, on-chip FPU, and optimized memory subsystem - validated under no-wait conditions for both 1-Mbyte code flash and 128-Kbyte SRAM. The R5F56609CGFN#30 sustains this performance across its full industrial temperature range (–40°C to +105°C).

Does the R5F56609CGFN#30 support CAN FD, and what standard does it comply with?

Yes, the R5F56609CGFN#30 integrates a CAN FD module compliant with ISO 11898-1:2015, supporting both standard and extended frames. It delivers FD data rates up to 5 Mbps in the data phase while maintaining backward compatibility with classical CAN. The R5F56609CGFN#30 uses dedicated differential CTX0/CRX0 pins and includes hardware message filtering, TX/RX FIFOs, and error confinement - enabling robust communication in automotive and industrial networks.

What analog peripherals are integrated into the R5F56609CGFN#30?

The R5F56609CGFN#30 integrates a 12-bit S12ADH A/D converter with 24 input channels, two 12-bit R12DAb D/A converters (0–AVCC0 output), four-channel CMPC analog comparators, and an on-die temperature sensor (±1.0°C accuracy). The R5F56609CGFN#30 supports A/D self-diagnosis, analog input disconnection detection, and D/A outputs usable as comparator references - enabling closed-loop analog control without external components.

How does the Event Link Controller (ELC) function in the R5F56609CGFN#30?

The ELC in the R5F56609CGFN#30 enables 83 internal peripheral events (e.g., MTU3a compare match, TMR overflow, A/D completion) to directly trigger actions in other modules - such as starting an A/D conversion or toggling a GPIO - without CPU interrupt or software overhead. This hardware interconnect reduces latency, lowers power in sleep modes, and ensures deterministic timing for real-time control loops in the R5F56609CGFN#30.

What safety and reliability features does the R5F56609CGFN#30 provide for IEC60730 compliance?

The R5F56609CGFN#30 includes multiple hardware features for IEC60730 Class B compliance: memory protection unit (MPU), Trusted Memory (TM) for code protection, CRC calculator (CRCA), clock frequency accuracy measurement circuit (CAC), oscillator stop detection, register write protection, and self-diagnostic A/D functions. These features are documented in the R5F56609CGFN#30 datasheet and enable systematic fault detection - reducing software certification effort for household and industrial appliances.
