6. 

Renesas Electronics products are classified according to the following two quality grades: “Standard” and “High Quality”. The intended applications for 
each Renesas El

ectronics product depends on the product’s quality grade, as indicated below. 

 

"Standard":  Computers; office equipment; communications equipment; test and measurement equipment; audio and visual equipment; home 

electronic appliances; machine tools; personal electronic equipment; industrial robots; etc. 

 

"High Quality":  Transportation equipment (automobiles, trains, ships, etc.); traffic control (traffic lights); large-scale communication equipment; key 

financial terminal systems; safety control equipment; etc. 

Unless expressly designated as a high reliability product or a product for harsh environments in a Renesas Electronics data sheet or other Renesas 
Electronics document, Renesas Electronics products are not intended or authorized for use in products or systems that may pose a direct threat to 
human life or bodily injury (artificial life support devices or systems; surgical implantations; etc.), or may cause serious property damage (space 
system; undersea repeaters; nuclear power control systems; aircraft control systems; key plant systems; military equipment; etc.). Renesas Electronics 
disclaims any and all liability for any damages or losses incurred by you or any third parties arising from the use of any Renesas Electronics product 
that is inconsistent 

with any Renesas Electronics data sheet, user’s manual or other Renesas Electronics document. 

7.  No semiconductor product is absolutely secure. Notwithstanding any security measures or features that may be implemented in Renesas Electronics 

hardware or software products, Renesas Electronics shall have absolutely no liability arising out of any vulnerability or security breach, including but 
not limited to any unauthorized access to or use of a Renesas Electronics product or a system that uses a Renesas Electronics product. RENESAS 
ELECTRONICS DOES NOT WARRANT OR GUARANTEE THAT RENESAS ELECTRONICS PRODUCTS, OR ANY SYSTEMS CREATED USING 
RENESAS ELECTRONICS PRODUCTS WILL BE INVULNERABLE OR FREE FROM CORRUPTION, ATTACK, VIRUSES, INTERFERENCE, 
HACKING, DATA LOSS 

OR THEFT, OR OTHER SECURITY INTRUSION (“Vulnerability Issues”). RENESAS ELECTRONICS DISCLAIMS ANY AND 

ALL RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO ANY VULNERABILITY ISSUES. FURTHERMORE, TO THE EXTENT 
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, RENESAS ELECTRONICS DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH 
RESPECT TO THIS DOCUMENT AND ANY RELATED OR ACCOMPANYING SOFTWARE OR HARDWARE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO 
THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. 

8. 

When using Renesas Electronics products, refer to the latest product information (data sheets, user’s manuals, application notes, “General Notes for 
Handling and Using Semiconductor Devices” in the reliability handbook, etc.), and ensure that usage conditions are within the ranges specified by 
Renesas Electronics with respect to maximum ratings, operating power supply voltage range, heat dissipation characteristics, installation, etc. Renesas 
Electronics disclaims any and all liability for any malfunctions, failure or accident arising out of the use of Renesas Electronics products outside of such 
specified ranges. 

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

characteristics, such as the occurrence of failure at a certain rate and malfunctions under certain use conditions. Unless designated as a high reliability 
product or a product for harsh environments in a Renesas Electronics data sheet or other Renesas Electronics document, Renesas Electronics 
products are not subject to radiation resistance design. You are responsible for implementing safety measures to guard against the possibility of bodily 
injury, injury or damage caused by fire, and/or danger to the public in the event of a failure or malfunction of Renesas Electronics products, 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 software alone is very difficult and impractical, you are 
responsible for evaluating the safety of the final products or systems manufactured by you. 

10.  Please contact a Renesas Electronics sales office for details as to environmental matters such as the environmental compatibility of each Renesas 

Electronics product. You are responsible for carefully and sufficiently investigating applicable laws and regulations that regulate the inclusion or use of 
controlled substances, including without limitation, the EU RoHS Directive, and using Renesas Electronics products in compliance with all these 
applicable laws and regulations. Renesas Electronics disclaims any and all liability for damages or losses occurring as a result of your noncompliance 
with applicable laws and regulations. 

11.  Renesas Electronics products and technologies shall not be used for or incorporated into any products or systems whose manufacture, use, or sale is 

prohibited under any applicable domestic or foreign laws or regulations. You shall comply with any applicable export control laws and regulations
