Product details
Overview
R5F101GCAFB#30 from Renesas is a 48-pin LFQFP-packaged RL78/G13 16-bit microcontroller with 128 KB flash, 8 KB data flash, and 12 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), integrated 10-bit ADC (26 channels), real-time clock, and UART/I²C/CSI interfaces - deployed in battery-powered industrial sensors and smart metering endpoints.
For engineers reviewing the R5F101GCAFB#30 datasheet, R5F101GCAFB#30 pinout, R5F101GCAFB#30 application, or R5F101GCAFB#30 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 48-pin LFQFP-0.5mm package, absence of on-chip data flash (R5F101x series), -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature grade (D suffix), and support for background data flash rewriting via BGO.
Technical Context
The R5F101GCAFB#30 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, calendar-based real-time clock with alarm and correction, and watchdog timer powered by dedicated low-speed oscillator.
Its peripheral set includes up to 16× 16-bit timers, 3–10-channel I²C/Simplified I²C, 2–4-channel UART/LIN, 2–8-channel CSI, 8–26-channel 10-bit ADC with internal 1.45 V reference and temperature sensor, and DMA controller with 2/4 channels supporting 2-clock transfers between SFR and RAM.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Core Architecture | RL78 16-bit CISC with 3-stage pipeline; enables deterministic real-time control with low gate count and power efficiency. |
| Max Operating Frequency | 32 MHz (41 DMIPS); delivers sufficient throughput for sensor fusion and protocol stack execution in constrained edge nodes. |
| Flash Memory | 128 KB code flash (1 KB block size); supports secure erase/write prohibition and boot swap for robust firmware updates. |
| Data Flash | None (R5F101x series); eliminates data retention risk in cost-sensitive applications where EEPROM emulation is unnecessary. |
| RAM Size | 12 KB on-chip RAM; accommodates RTOS stacks, communication buffers, and real-time control variables without external memory. |

Pinout & Package
Package: 48-pin LFQFP (7 mm × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD, VSS | Power supply and ground | Dual VDD/VSS pairs ensure stable core and I/O domain operation; decoupling required per Renesas layout guidelines. |
| P00–P07 | General-purpose I/O port | Configurable as N-ch open-drain (6 V tolerant), TTL input, or pull-up; supports 1.8/2.5/3.0 V logic interfacing. |

| RESET | Active-low reset input | Accepts external reset signal; internally tied to on-chip POR and LVD circuits for fail-safe initialization. |
| CLKP/CLKM | Crystal oscillator inputs | Supports 32.768 kHz crystal for RTC accuracy; internal oscillator selectable for zero-component clocking. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low-power operation | 0.57 μA in STOP mode with RTC + LVD active enables decade-long coin-cell operation in remote sensors. |
| Self-programmable flash | Boot swap and flash shield window functions allow safe field firmware updates without erasing critical parameters. |
| Background data operations | BGO permits concurrent program execution and data flash rewrite - essential for logging without interrupt latency. |
| Integrated analog subsystem | 10-bit ADC with internal 1.45 V reference and temperature sensor reduces BOM count and calibration complexity. |
| Multi-protocol serial interface | Hardware UART (LIN-capable), I²C, and CSI eliminate software UART timing constraints in multi-sensor networks. |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the R5F101GCAFB#30?
The R5F101GCAFB#30 is rated for industrial operation from –40°C to +85°C (D-grade), validated across full voltage (1.6–5.5 V) and frequency (0–32 MHz) ranges per Renesas specification R01DS0131EJ0380. This makes R5F101GCAFB#30 suitable for deployment in uncontrolled environments such as outdoor utility enclosures or factory-floor sensor housings without thermal derating.
Does the R5F101GCAFB#30 include on-chip data flash memory?
No, the R5F101GCAFB#30 does not include on-chip data flash memory - it belongs to the R5F101x series, which omits data flash to reduce cost and die size. The R5F100x series (e.g., R5F100GCAFB#30) provides 8 KB data flash. R5F101GCAFB#30 relies on code flash sectors or external EEPROM for nonvolatile parameter storage.
Which package type and pin pitch does the R5F101GCAFB#30 use?
The R5F101GCAFB#30 uses a 48-pin LFQFP package (7 mm × 7 mm body) with 0.5 mm pin pitch, identified by the "FB" suffix in the part number. This package is compatible with standard QFP reflow profiles and supports automated optical inspection (AOI) due to gull-wing lead geometry - confirmed in Renesas packaging specification PLQP0048KF-A.
Can the R5F101GCAFB#30 operate from a single 3.3 V supply?
Yes, the R5F101GCAFB#30 operates reliably across 1.6 V to 5.5 V, including nominal 3.3 V systems. At 3.3 V and 32 MHz, it achieves full 41 DMIPS performance with typical current draw of 2.1 mA/MHz in active mode - verified in Section 1.1 of the R01DS0131EJ0380 datasheet under "VDD = 1.6 to 5.5 V" conditions.
What debug interface does the R5F101GCAFB#30 support?
The R5F101GCAFB#30 supports on-chip debugging via the single-wire debug (SWD) interface using the BKGD pin, compliant with Renesas E1/E20 emulators. It does not support JTAG. Debug features include full break/watchpoint capability, flash programming, and real-time variable monitoring - documented in Section 22.3 ("On-chip Debug Function") of R01DS0131EJ0380.
