Product details
Overview
R5F101BFANA#U0 from Renesas is a 32-pin HWQFN-packaged RL78/G13 16-bit microcontroller with 64 KB flash, 4 KB data flash, and 4 KB RAM, operating from 1.6 V to 5.5 V at up to 32 MHz (41 DMIPS), featuring ultra-low-power HALT/STOP/SNOOZE modes (0.57 μA RTC+LVD), 10-bit ADC (26 channels), and integrated RTC - deployed in battery-powered industrial sensors and smart metering endpoints.
For engineers reviewing the R5F101BFANA#U0 datasheet, R5F101BFANA#U0 pinout, R5F101BFANA#U0 application, or R5F101BFANA#U0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 32-pin HWQFN-0.5mm package, absence of on-chip data flash (R5F101x series), -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature grade ('D' suffix), and compatibility with Renesas' RL78 toolchain and CS+ IDE for low-power firmware development.
Technical Context
The R5F101BFANA#U0 implements the RL78 CPU core with CISC architecture and 3-stage pipeline, supporting variable instruction execution time (0.03125 μs @ 32 MHz to 30.5 μs @ 32.768 kHz). It integrates a 10-bit A/D converter with internal reference (1.45 V) and temperature sensor, plus real-time clock with calendar, alarm, and clock correction functions.
Power management includes on-chip POR and LVD with 14 selectable voltage detection levels, DMA controller (2 channels), and multiple serial interfaces: CSI (SPI-compatible), UART/LIN (2 channels), and I²C (3 channels). Its memory subsystem supports self-programming with boot swap and flash shield window security features.
