Chapter 4 CPU Architecture
This chapter describes the architecture of FR60 family CPU.
1. Overview
The CPUs of the FR60 family series employ RISC architecture and advanced function instructions for
embedded application.
CPU of FR60 family employs Harvard architecture whose instruction bus and data bus are independent. “32-
bit/16-bit bus converter” realizes the interface between CPU and peripheral functions. “Harvard/Princeton bus
converter” connects both of I-bus and D-bus and realizes the interface between CPU and bus controller.
