Renesas R5F572MNHDFP#30

Overview

R5F572MNHDFP#30 from Renesas is a 32-bit RXv3 microcontroller with 240 MHz CPU, double-precision IEEE-754 FPU, 4 MB on-chip code flash, 1 MB SRAM (including 32 KB ECC RAM), and integrated EtherCAT slave controller - designed for real-time industrial automation systems requiring deterministic motion control, safety-compliant IEC60730 operation, and multi-protocol connectivity.

For engineers reviewing the R5F572MNHDFP#30 datasheet, R5F572MNHDFP#30 pinout, R5F572MNHDFP#30 application, or R5F572MNHDFP#30 equivalent, key selection criteria include EtherCAT slave timing compliance, dual-bank flash for safe firmware updates, 120-kHz IWDT with window function, and support for IEEE 1588 PTP timestamping via EPTPC.

Technical Context

The R5F572MNHDFP#30 implements the RXv3 CPU core with 16 general-purpose 32-bit registers, double-precision FPU (16×64-bit data registers), and collective register bank save for fast context switching. It integrates two independent Ethernet MACs (10/100 Mbps) with MII/RMII interfaces and a Beckhoff-certified EtherCAT slave controller supporting two physical ports.

Clock architecture includes main crystal oscillator (8–24 MHz), PLL for 240 MHz system clock (ICLK), dedicated 120-kHz IWDT oscillator, and independent peripheral clocks (PCLKA up to 120 MHz, PCLKB up to 60 MHz). Real-time capabilities are reinforced by ELC event linking across 137 internal signals, enabling hardware-synchronized timer-triggered ADC conversions and PWM dead-time compensation without CPU intervention.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating frequency and CoreMark score of the R5F572MNHDFP#30?

The R5F572MNHDFP#30 operates at a maximum frequency of 240 MHz and achieves 1396 CoreMark points under benchmark conditions. This performance stems from the RXv3 CPU core's optimized pipeline, double-precision FPU, and efficient memory subsystem - all validated in the official Renesas R01DS0332EJ0120 datasheet. The R5F572MNHDFP#30 sustains this speed across its full temperature range (–40°C to +105°C) with appropriate power supply decoupling and thermal design.

Does the R5F572MNHDFP#30 support EtherCAT slave functionality, and what certification does it hold?

Yes, the R5F572MNHDFP#30 integrates a Beckhoff-certified EtherCAT slave controller (ESC) IP core supporting two physical ports. It complies fully with EtherCAT protocol timing requirements, including distributed clock synchronization and process data exchange. The ESC implementation is verified per ETG.1000 and ETG.1020 specifications - confirmed in Renesas Application Note R01AN3929EU0100 and the R5F572MNHDFP#30 datasheet section 1.1.1.

What flash and RAM configurations are included in the R5F572MNHDFP#30?

The R5F572MNHDFP#30 includes 4 MB of on-chip code flash memory with dual-bank architecture, 32 KB of reprogrammable data flash (rated for 100,000 erase cycles), 1 MB of SRAM (split into 512 KB fast-access and 512 KB expansion banks), 32 KB of ECC-protected RAM, and 8 KB of battery-backed standby RAM. These memory resources are explicitly detailed in Table 1.1 of the R01DS0332EJ0120 Rev.1.20 datasheet.

How does the R5F572MNHDFP#30 support IEC60730 functional safety compliance?

The R5F572MNHDFP#30 provides hardware-assisted IEC60730 Class B compliance through oscillation-stoppage detection, CRC calculation accelerator (CRCA), independent watchdog timer (IWDTa) with window function, self-diagnostic A/D converter test, and register write protection. These features are documented in Section 1.1.12 of the R01DS0332EJ0120 datasheet and enable certified safety firmware without external safety monitors.

What package type and pin count does the R5F572MNHDFP#30 use?

The R5F572MNHDFP#30 uses the PLQP0176KB-C package: a 176-ball Low-Profile Fine-Pitch Ball Grid Array (LFBGA) with 24 mm × 24 mm body size and 0.5 mm ball pitch. This package supports 136 general-purpose I/O pins (19 of which are 5-V tolerant), as specified in Table 1.2 of the R01DS0332EJ0120 datasheet and Renesas packaging document LFBGA-176-001.
