Active production, 160 MHz RXv3 core — what that means for a BOM line
The R5F566TEBDFP#30: Program memory is 512 KB of on-chip flash (512K x 8), backed by 64K x 8 of SRAM. For a motor-drive application running a sensorless FOC algorithm plus a CANopen stack, that leaves enough headroom for a modest bootloader and data-logging buffer without external memory.
73 I/O, CAN, Ethernet — peripheral fit for a control-node MCU
With 73 I/O lines and connectivity that includes CANbus, Ethernet, I²C, SPI, SCI, and LINbus, this part sits comfortably as the central controller in a distributed automation node. The Ethernet port handles real-time industrial protocols (EtherCAT-ready via the RX66T peripheral set), while the CAN channel ties into legacy fieldbus segments without an external transceiver — just a CAN PHY on the board. The data-converter block integrates 22 channels of 12-bit ADC and 2 channels of 12-bit DAC — enough analog front-end for three-phase current sensing (six channels) plus voltage and temperature monitoring, with DACs left for setpoint outputs or trimming.
Packaged in a 100-LQFP (also listed as 100-LFQFP, 14x14 mm body) — a 0.5 mm pitch QFP that routes comfortably on a 4-layer board with a ground plane under the exposed pad for thermal relief.
