Product details
Overview
R5F100GKANA#20 from Renesas is a 48-pin HWQFN-packaged RL78/G13 16-bit microcontroller with 256 KB flash, 8 KB data flash, and 20 KB RAM, operating from 1.6 V to 5.5 V across -40°C to +105°C industrial temperature range. It delivers 41 DMIPS at 32 MHz, integrates RTC, 10-bit ADC (26 channels), UART/SPI/I²C interfaces, and ultra-low-power modes (0.57 μA in STOP with RTC+LVD) for battery-powered industrial control and sensor nodes.
For engineers reviewing the R5F100GKANA#20 datasheet, R5F100GKANA#20 pinout, R5F100GKANA#20 application, or R5F100GKANA#20 equivalent, key selection criteria include its industrial-grade temperature rating, on-chip data flash endurance (1M rewrite cycles), background operation capability during flash reprogramming, and hardware-accelerated multiply-accumulate unit for real-time signal processing.
Technical Context
The R5F100GKANA#20 implements the RL78 CPU core with 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, supporting instruction execution times from 0.03125 μs (32 MHz high-speed mode) to 30.5 μs (32.768 kHz ultra-low-speed mode). Its memory subsystem includes 256 KB code flash (1 KB block size), 8 KB data flash with background operation (BGO), and 20 KB SRAM - enabling concurrent execution and non-volatile data logging.
Peripherals include up to 16× 16-bit timers, 1× real-time clock with calendar/alarm, 1× watchdog timer, 26-channel 10-bit ADC with internal 1.45 V reference and temperature sensor, and multi-protocol serial interfaces: 2–4 UART/LIN, 2–8 CSI (SPI-compatible), and 3–10 I²C channels - all configurable for mixed-signal industrial edge node applications.

The R5F100GKANA#20 operates at up to 32 MHz with a measured performance of 41 DMIPS. This rating is achieved using the RL78 CPU core's 3-stage pipeline and high-speed on-chip oscillator calibrated to ±1.0% accuracy across 1.8–5.5 V and -20°C to +85°C - ensuring deterministic timing in real-time control loops without external crystal dependency.
Does the R5F100GKANA#20 support in-system programming and secure firmware updates?
Yes, the R5F100GKANA#20 supports full in-system programming via on-chip debug interface and includes flash shield window functionality to define protected memory regions.

What are the key low-power modes available on the R5F100GKANA#20 and their typical current consumption?
The R5F100GKANA#20 offers HALT (66 μA/MHz), STOP (0.57 μA with RTC + LVD active), and SNOOZE modes. STOP mode maintains RTC calendar, alarm, and voltage monitoring functions while disabling CPU and most peripherals - making it ideal for battery-backed applications like utility meters where decade-scale operation is required.
How many analog input channels does the R5F100GKANA#20 support, and what ADC resolution and reference options are available?
The R5F100GKANA#20 integrates a 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with up to 26 analog input channels. It supports both external differential reference (AVREFP/AVREFM) and internal 1.45 V reference, and includes an on-die temperature sensor usable as a system health monitor - all accessible without external components.
Is the R5F100GKANA#20 pin-compatible with other RL78/G13 variants in the same package?
Yes, the R5F100GKANA#20 is pin-compatible with all 48-pin HWQFN RL78/G13 variants (e.g., R5F100FKANA#20, R5F100JKANA#20), sharing identical pinout, electrical characteristics, and peripheral mapping. This enables scalable design reuse across memory configurations while maintaining PCB layout compatibility.
