Product details
Overview
R5F100GHGNA#U0 from Renesas is a 48-pin, 128 KB flash, 8 KB data flash, 12 KB RAM RL78/G13 16-bit microcontroller with ultra-low-power operation (66 μA/MHz active, 0.57 μA RTC+LVD), 1.6–5.5 V supply, and integrated 32 MHz high-accuracy on-chip oscillator (±1.0%). It targets battery-powered industrial sensors and smart metering interfaces requiring long runtime and reliable real-time control.
For engineers reviewing the R5F100GHGNA#U0 datasheet, R5F100GHGNA#U0 pinout, R5F100GHGNA#U0 application, or R5F100GHGNA#U0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its HWQFN-48 package with 0.5 mm pitch, industrial-grade –40°C to +105°C operation (G-grade), 10-bit 26-channel ADC, dual UART/LIN support, and hardware BGO-capable data flash for background firmware updates.
Technical Context
The R5F100GHGNA#U0 implements the RL78 CPU core with 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, supporting instruction execution times from 0.03125 μs (32 MHz HS mode) to 30.5 μs (32.768 kHz subsystem clock). Its memory subsystem includes 128 KB code flash (1 KB block size), 8 KB data flash with 1M rewrite cycles, and 12 KB SRAM - all accessible under single-supply 1.6–5.5 V operation.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F100GHGFB#V0 | LQFP-48 package (7 × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), same memory and peripherals; lacks exposed thermal pad | Better suited for manual soldering or rework; lower thermal performance in continuous 32 MHz operation | Select when board assembly uses standard reflow profiles without vapor-phase or when thermal pad routing is constrained |
| R5F101GHGNA#U0 | Same package and pinout but omits data flash (0 KB); retains 128 KB code flash and 12 KB RAM | Applicable where firmware updates occur only via external host or where EEPROM emulation is handled externally | Choose when data logging or field firmware patching is unnecessary - reduces cost and simplifies qualification |
Compared with R5F100GHGNA#U0, the R5F100GHGFB#V0 offers identical functionality in a more serviceable package but trades thermal efficiency for assembly flexibility, while the R5F101GHGNA#U0 removes data flash to lower unit cost and simplify security certification - making it viable only when background nonvolatile parameter storage is not required.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and associated power consumption of the R5F100GHGNA#U0?
The R5F100GHGNA#U0 operates up to 32 MHz using its high-speed on-chip oscillator. At this frequency, active current consumption is 66 μA per MHz - resulting in approximately 2.1 mA total at 32 MHz with all peripherals disabled. This value scales linearly with clock speed and increases with peripheral activation, such as ADC conversion or UART transmission.
Does the R5F100GHGNA#U0 support background data flash rewriting while executing application code?
Yes, the R5F100GHGNA#U0 supports Background Operation (BGO) for data flash. During BGO, the CPU can execute instructions from program memory while the data flash is being rewritten - enabling seamless firmware updates or parameter logging without halting real-time tasks. The flash library reserves RAM starting at address FAF00H for this purpose.
What are the key differences between the R5F100GHGNA#U0 and R5F101GHGNA#U0?
The R5F100GHGNA#U0 includes 8 KB of data flash memory with BGO and 1,000,000 rewrite cycles, whereas the R5F101GHGNA#U0 has no data flash. Both share identical code flash (128 KB), RAM (12 KB), package (HWQFN-48), and peripheral set. The R5F101 variant is intended for applications where nonvolatile parameter storage is handled externally or omitted entirely.
Can the R5F100GHGNA#U0 operate across the full industrial temperature range?
Yes, the R5F100GHGNA#U0 is rated for operation from –40°C to +105°C (G-grade), meeting industrial environmental requirements. This rating applies to the full electrical specification - including 32 MHz operation, ADC linearity, and data flash reliability - validated across the entire temperature range per Renesas' qualification standards.
Which debug interfaces are supported by the R5F100GHGNA#U0?
The R5F100GHGNA#U0 supports Renesas E1 and E20 on-chip debug emulators via the dedicated TOOLRxD/TOOLTxD pins (P11/P12). It requires no external JTAG adapter and enables full flash programming, real-time breakpoint setting, register inspection, and trace - all through a single 6-pin SWD-compatible connector.
