Keep safety first in your circuit designs!
1. Renesas Technology Corp. puts the maximum effort into making semiconductor products better and
more reliable, but there is always the possibility that trouble may occur with them. Trouble with
semiconductors may lead to personal injury, fire or property damage.
Remember to give due consideration to safety when making your circuit designs, with appropriate
measures such as (i) placement of substitutive, auxiliary circuits, (ii) use of nonflammable material or
(iii) prevention against any malfunction or mishap.

Preface
The H8/3827R Group, H8/3827S Group, H8/38327 Group, and H8/38427 Group are high-
performance single-chip microcomputers that integrate peripheral functions necessary for system
configuration with an H8/300L CPU core.
The on-chip peripheral functions include ROM, RAM, six timers, 14-bit PWM, a serial
communication interface (SCI), an A/D converter, LCD controller/driver, and I/O ports, providing
an ideal configuration as a microcomputer for embedding in sophisticated control systems. PROM
(ZTAT™*
1
), flash memory (F-ZTAT™*
2
), and mask ROM are available as on-chip ROM,
enabling users to respond quickly and flexibly to changing application specifications and the
demands of the transition from initial to full-fledged volume production.
Notes: 1. ZTAT is a trademark of Renesas Technology Corp.
2. F-ZTAT is a trademark of Renesas Technology Corp.
Intended Readership: This manual is intended for users undertaking the design of an application
system using the H8/3827R Group, H8/3827S Group, H8/38327 Group, and
H8/38427 Group. Readers using this manual require a basic knowledge of
electrical circuits, logic circuits, and microcomputers.
Purpose:
The purpose of this manual is to give users an understanding of the hardware
functions and electrical characteristics of the H8/3827R Group, H8/3827S
Group, H8/38327 Group, and H8/38427 Group. Details of execution
instructions can be found in the H8/300L Series Programming Manual,
which should be read in conjunction with the present manual.
Using this Manual:
•
For an overall understanding of the H8/3827R Group, H8/3827S Group, H8/38327 Group, and
H8/38427 Group's functions
Follow the Table of Contents. This manual is broadly divided into sections on the CPU, system
control functions, peripheral functions, and electrical characteristics.
•
For a detailed understanding of CPU functions
Refer to the separate publication H8/300L Series Programming Manual.
Note on bit notation: Bits are shown in high-to-low order from left to right.

Notes: The following limitations apply when using the on-chip emulator for program
development and debugging.
1. Pin P3
2
is reserved for use exclusively by the on-chip emulator and cannot be used for
other operations.
2. Pins P8
5
, P8
6
, and P8
7
cannot be used. In order to use these pins it is necessary to
install additional hardware on the user board.
3. The address area from H'E000 to H'EFFF is used by the on-chip emulator and therefore
cannot be accessed by the user.
4. The address area from H'F300 to H'F6FF must not be accessed under any
circumstances.
5. When the on-chip emulator is used, pin P3
2
functions as an I/O pin, pins P8
5
and P8
6
function as input pins, and pin P8
7
functions as an output pin.
6. It is necessary to change the user board for LCD display debugging. This item does not
apply if LCD display is not used or if the emulator is not operated in writer mode.
User Board Changes
The following changes are necessary.
• Connect pin V1 to the V
CC
power supply. Also connect capacitors and resistors to
pins V1, V2, and V3. Connect a capacitor and a resistor to pins V1, V2, and V3.
• No SEG signals are output from pins P8
5
/SEG30, P8
6
/SEG31, and P8
7
/SEG32, so
the display is unstable. In addition, a DC voltage is applied. If damage to the LCD is
a concern, disconnect the above three pins from the LCD.
A connection example is shown below. Refer to the emulator user’s manual for
information on other settings.

7. During a break, the watchdog timer continues to operate. Therefore, an internal reset is
generated if an overflow occurs during the break.
