Yes, the UPD78F1167AGF(S)-GAS-AX integrates a full CAN 2.0B-compliant controller with 32 message objects, programmable bit timing, automatic retransmission, and error confinement logic. It supports both standard (11-bit) and extended (29-bit) identifier formats and includes a loopback self-test mode. This eliminates the need for external CAN protocol ICs in applications like industrial drive communication. The UPD78F1167AGF(S)-GAS-AX uses P00 (CAN_TX) and P01 (CAN_RX) as dedicated physical layer pins.
What is the Flash memory endurance specification for the UPD78F1167AGF(S)-GAS-AX?
The UPD78F1167AGF(S)-GAS-AX features 128 KB of on-chip Flash memory rated for 100,000 write/erase cycles per block, with data retention guaranteed for 20 years at +85°C. This endurance enables robust in-field firmware updates and parameter storage without external EEPROM. The UPD78F1167AGF(S)-GAS-AX supports in-application programming (IAP) via UART or CAN, allowing safe background updates while maintaining real-time control tasks.
How many ADC channels does the UPD78F1167AGF(S)-GAS-AX support, and what is its resolution?
The UPD78F1167AGF(S)-GAS-AX includes a single 12-bit successive-approximation ADC with 8 configurable input channels (AN0–AN7). Conversion time is 1.2 μs at maximum speed, and sampling can be triggered by software, timer overflow, or compare match events. The ADC supports separate analog reference pins (AVREF0/AVREF1) for flexible ratiometric or absolute measurements. This capability is documented in the "Analog Functions" chapter of the UPD78F1167AGF(S)-GAS-AX User's Manual U17894EJ9V0UD.
Is the UPD78F1167AGF(S)-GAS-AX qualified for industrial temperature operation?
Yes, the UPD78F1167AGF(S)-GAS-AX is rated for operation across −40°C to +85°C ambient temperature and classified by Renesas as "Standard" quality grade-intended for industrial equipment including motor drives, PLCs, and building automation systems.
