“Standard”: Computers; office equipment; communications equipment; test and measurement equipment; audio and visual

equipment; home electronic appliances; machine tools; personal el

ectronic equipment; and industrial robots.

“High Quality”: Transportation equipment (automobiles, trains, ships, etc.); traffic control systems; anti-disaster systems; anti-

crime systems; safety equipment; and medical equipment not specifically designed for life support.

“Specific”: Aircraft; aerospace equipment; submersible repeaters; nuclear reactor control systems;medical equipment or

systems for life support (e.g. artificial life support devices or systems), surgical implantations, or healthcare

intervention (e.g. excision, etc.), and any other applications or purposes that pose a direct threat to human life.

8. You should use the Renesas Electronics products described in this document within the range specified by Renesas Electronics,

especially with respect to the maximum rating, operating supply voltage range, movement power voltage range, heat radiation

characteristics, installation and other product characteristics. Renesas Electronics shall have no liability for malfunctions or damages

arising out of the use of Renesas Electronics products beyond such specified ranges.

9. Although Renesas Electronics endeavors to improve the quality and reliability of its products, semiconductor products have specific

characteristics such as the occurrence of failure at a certain rate and malfunctions under certain use conditions. Further, Renesas

Electronics products are not subject to radiation resistance design. Please be sure to implement safety measures to guard them

against the possibility of physical injury, and injury or damage caused by fire in the event of the failure of a Renesas Electronics

product, such as safety design for hardware and software including but not limited to redundancy, fire control and malfunction

prevention, appropriate treatment for aging degradation or any other appropriate measures. Because the evaluation of microcomputer
