For engineers reviewing the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 datasheet, R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 pinout, R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 application, or R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, package mapping, validated pin functions, and two confirmed alternative parts for industrial IoT node design, secure gateway development, and embedded automation systems.

Technical Context

The R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 implements Armv8-M architecture with TrustZone isolation, supporting secure/non-secure execution environments via dual MPU instances (8 regions each) and hardware-enforced memory partitioning across flash, SRAM, and peripherals. Its clock system integrates PLL, HOCO/MOCO/LOCO oscillators, and CAC for frequency accuracy validation.

Connectivity includes RMII-mode Ethernet MAC (ETHERC/EDMAC), USBFS with internal transceiver, ISO 11898-1 CAN, SDHI (1-/4-bit), QSPI controller, and six SCI channels supporting UART, SPI, I²C, and Manchester modes - all accessible within its 48-pin QFN footprint without external glue logic.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating frequency of the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0?

The R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 features an Arm Cortex-M33 core with a maximum operating frequency of 200 MHz. This is achieved using the on-chip PLL driven by the main clock oscillator (MOSC) or high-speed on-chip oscillator (HOCO). The core operates within its specified voltage range (2.7–3.6 V) and temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C), and the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 datasheet confirms this rating across all supported package variants including the 48-pin QFN.

Does the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 include an integrated Ethernet PHY?

No, the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 integrates only the Ethernet MAC (ETHERC) and DMA controller (EDMAC), not a physical layer transceiver. It supports RMII interface mode and requires an external PHY-LSI connected via RMII0_TXD0/1, RMII0_RXD0/1, REF50CK0, and associated control signals. The R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 datasheet explicitly states "ETHERC channel provides one channel of the MAC layer interface, connecting the MCU to the physical layer LSI (PHY-LSI)".

How many analog input channels does the ADC12 support on the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0?

The R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 implements the ADC12 module with 5 selectable analog input channels, as confirmed in Table 1.13 (Function Comparison) of the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 datasheet. This is fewer than the 11 channels available on the 100-pin variant but matches the 48-pin QFN package's pin count and routing constraints. All 5 channels are accessible on dedicated ANmn pins in the QFN pinout.

Is TrustZone functionality fully implemented on the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0?

Yes, TrustZone security is fully implemented on the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0, enabling hardware-enforced separation between secure and non-secure worlds. It supports secure/non-secure MPU regions, secure/non-secure SysTick timers, and peripheral attribution. However, the SCE9 security co-processor is not functional per datasheet Note 1 - only access control, RNG, and unique ID circuits are guaranteed operational in the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0.

What is the purpose of the VCL and VCL0 pins on the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0?

The VCL and VCL0 pins on the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 are internal LDO output and stabilization pins for the core logic voltage domain. VCL is the output of the internal regulator; VCL0 is its stabilization capacitor connection point. Both must be connected to VSS via a 1–10 µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to the package, as specified in the R7FA6E10D2CNE#BA0 hardware design guidelines. Failure to properly decouple these pins risks unstable core operation or reset anomalies.
