Product details
Overview
R5F101GJANA#U0 from Renesas is a 48-pin HWQFN-packaged RL78/G13 16-bit microcontroller with 192 KB flash, 8 KB data flash, 16 KB RAM, and industrial-grade operation up to +105°C. It delivers 41 DMIPS at 32 MHz, supports ultra-low-power modes (0.57 μA RTC+LVD), and integrates 12-bit ADC (24 channels), UART/LIN, I²C, SPI, RTC, and DMA for embedded control in battery-powered and harsh-environment applications.
For engineers reviewing the R5F101GJANA#U0 datasheet, R5F101GJANA#U0 pinout, R5F101GJANA#U0 application, or R5F101GJANA#U0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 48-pin HWQFN-0.5mm package, absence of on-chip data flash (R5F101x series), industrial temperature rating (−40°C to +105°C), and compatibility with Renesas' RL78 toolchain and E2 studio IDE.
Technical Context
The R5F101GJANA#U0 implements the RL78 CPU core with a 3-stage pipeline, supporting instruction execution times from 0.03125 μs (32 MHz high-speed mode) to 30.5 μs (32.768 kHz low-speed mode). Its memory architecture separates 192 KB code flash (1 KB blocks) from dedicated 16 KB RAM, enabling deterministic real-time operation.
Peripheral integration includes dual UART/LIN interfaces with automatic baud rate detection, three I²C channels supporting standard/fast-mode, eight 16-bit timers with PWM output capability, and a calendar RTC with alarm and clock correction-enabling time-stamped event logging and scheduled wake-up without external components.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F101GJANA#V0 | LQFP-48 package (7 mm × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), same memory/peripheral set, identical G-grade temp range | Requires PCB layout change due to different footprint and thermal pad design | Select #V0 for prototyping with socketed evaluation boards or when manual rework is preferred over QFN reflow |
| R5F100GJANA#U0 | Same 48-pin HWQFN package but includes 8 KB on-chip data flash (R5F100x series) | Better suited for applications requiring frequent non-volatile parameter storage without external EEPROM | Choose #U0 if field-updatable calibration tables or logging history are required; otherwise R5F101GJANA#U0 reduces BOM cost |
Compared with R5F101GJANA#U0, the #V0 variant trades QFN thermal performance for easier assembly, while the R5F100GJANA#U0 adds data flash at higher unit cost-making R5F101GJANA#U0 optimal for cost-sensitive, flash-only firmware deployments in thermally demanding environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and corresponding DMIPS rating for the R5F101GJANA#U0?
The R5F101GJANA#U0 operates at up to 32 MHz using its high-speed on-chip oscillator and achieves 41 DMIPS (Dhrystone MIPS) at that frequency. This performance level is sustained across its full industrial temperature range (−40°C to +105°C) and supply voltage (1.6 V to 5.5 V), making it suitable for real-time control tasks in demanding environments where consistent throughput matters.
Does the R5F101GJANA#U0 include on-chip data flash memory?
No, the R5F101GJANA#U0 does not include on-chip data flash memory. As indicated by the "101" in its part number (per Renesas' naming convention), this variant provides only code flash (192 KB) and 16 KB RAM. Applications requiring non-volatile parameter storage must use external EEPROM or leverage the code flash with wear-leveling software-unlike the R5F100GJANA#U0, which includes 8 KB of dedicated data flash.
What package type and pin count does the R5F101GJANA#U0 use?
The R5F101GJANA#U0 uses a 48-pin HWQFN (Heat Sink Quad Flat No-lead) package measuring 7 mm × 7 mm with 0.5 mm pitch and an exposed thermal pad. The "NA" in the part number confirms the HWQFN package, and "#U0" denotes tray packaging. This compact, thermally efficient package supports high-density PCB layouts while enabling effective heat dissipation in sealed enclosures.
Which communication interfaces are integrated into the R5F101GJANA#U0?
The R5F101GJANA#U0 integrates multiple serial interfaces: up to four UART/LIN channels (with automatic baud rate detection), up to ten I²C/Simplified I²C channels (supporting standard and fast-mode), and up to eight CSI (Simplified SPI) channels. These interfaces operate concurrently and can be assigned to flexible pin mappings, enabling simultaneous connectivity to displays, sensors, actuators, and diagnostic tools without external bridge ICs.
What low-power modes are supported by the R5F101GJANA#U0, and what is the lowest achievable current draw?
The R5F101GJANA#U0 supports HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes. In STOP mode with only the real-time clock (RTC) and low-voltage detector (LVD) active, it draws just 0.57 μA - verified across −40°C to +105°C. This ultra-low quiescent current enables decade-long battery operation in metering and remote monitoring applications, with wake-up via RTC alarm, external interrupt, or serial activity.
