Product details
Overview
R5F101FCDFP#50 from Renesas is a 44-pin LQFP-44, 16-bit RL78/G13 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 modes (0.57 μA RTC+LVD), 10-bit ADC (24 channels), and integrated UART/SPI/I²C interfaces - deployed in battery-powered industrial sensors and smart metering endpoints.
For engineers reviewing the R5F101FCDFP#50 datasheet, R5F101FCDFP#50 pinout, R5F101FCDFP#50 application, or R5F101FCDFP#50 equivalent, key selection criteria include its no-data-flash configuration, industrial-grade temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), LQFP-44 package with 0.8-mm pitch, and support for background data flash rewriting and real-time clock calendar functionality.
Technical Context
The R5F101FCDFP#50 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 subsystem clock). It integrates a 12-bit interval timer, real-time clock with calendar/alarm/correction, and watchdog timer driven by dedicated low-speed oscillator.
Its peripheral set includes up to 24-channel 10-bit ADC with internal 1.45 V reference and temperature sensor, 2–4 channel DMA controller (2-cycle transfers between SFR and RAM), and serial interfaces: up to 8 CSI (SPI-compatible), 4 UART/LIN, and 10 I²C channels - all configurable via on-chip register settings without external components.

FAQ
What is the flash memory configuration of the R5F101FCDFP#50?
The R5F101FCDFP#50 contains 64 KB of code flash memory and no data flash memory - confirmed by Renesas ordering code convention ('1' in third position indicates data flash not provided) and verified in the RL78/G13 datasheet memory matrix. This configuration reduces cost and simplifies firmware update architecture where persistent parameter storage is handled externally or omitted.
Does the R5F101FCDFP#50 support real-time clock functionality with calendar features?
Yes, the R5F101FCDFP#50 integrates a full-featured real-time clock (RTC) with calendar support for years, months, days, hours, minutes, and seconds; alarm interrupt capability; and automatic clock correction. It operates independently in STOP mode using a 32.768 kHz crystal or internal sub-system clock, consuming only 0.57 μA total with LVD enabled.
What is the maximum ADC resolution and channel count supported by the R5F101FCDFP#50?
The R5F101FCDFP#50 supports a 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with up to 24 analog input channels (ANI0–ANI23), including dedicated AVREFP/AVREFM pins for precision referencing. The ADC operates across the full 1.6 V to 5.5 V supply range and includes an integrated temperature sensor usable for ambient monitoring or system calibration.
Can the R5F101FCDFP#50 operate in ultra-low-power modes with peripherals active?
Yes, the R5F101FCDFP#50 supports multiple low-power modes: HALT (CPU stopped, peripherals active), STOP (all clocks halted except RTC/LVD), and SNOOZE (selected peripherals like UART or ADC operate while CPU sleeps). In STOP mode with RTC + LVD enabled, current draw is just 0.57 μA - validated per datasheet Section 1.1 and electrical characteristics table.
Is the R5F101FCDFP#50 pin-compatible with other RL78/G13 variants in LQFP-44 package?
Yes, the R5F101FCDFP#50 shares identical pinout and LQFP-44 (10 × 10 mm, 0.8-mm pitch) mechanical footprint with all RL78/G13 devices ordered with 'F' (44-pin), 'C' (64 KB flash), and 'D' (industrial temp) suffixes - including R5F100FCDFP#50 and R5F101FCDFA#50 (TSSOP-44 variant excluded). Pin compatibility is guaranteed per Renesas Package Outline Drawing PLQP0044GC-A.
