Product details
Overview
R5F101LEDFA#X0 from Renesas is a 64-pin LQFP-0.65mm, 16 KB flash, no data flash, industrial-grade (−40°C to +85°C) RL78/G13 16-bit MCU with 4 KB RAM, 10-bit ADC (26 channels), and real-time clock. It delivers 41 DMIPS at 32 MHz and operates from 1.6 V to 5.5 V, targeting low-power sensor nodes and embedded control in HVAC, smart meters, and industrial HMI.
For engineers reviewing the R5F101LEDFA#X0 datasheet, R5F101LEDFA#X0 pinout, R5F101LEDFA#X0 application, or R5F101LEDFA#X0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its zero-data-flash configuration for cost-sensitive firmware-fixed designs, 64-pin LQFP package compatibility with legacy layouts, −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature rating, and integrated RTC with calendar/alarm functions for time-stamped logging.
Technical Context
The R5F101LEDFA#X0 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-power mode). It integrates a 10-bit A/D converter with up to 26 analog inputs and internal 1.45 V reference voltage.
It features dual serial interfaces - up to 4 UART/LIN channels and up to 10 I²C/Simplified I²C channels - alongside 16 × 16-bit timer channels, 1 × 12-bit interval timer, and 1 × real-time clock with calendar, alarm, and clock correction. Power management includes HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes, achieving 66 μA/MHz active current and 0.57 μA RTC+LVD retention.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F101LEDFA#V0 | Identical silicon; differs only in packaging - tray vs. embossed tape. | No functional difference; same PCB layout and thermal profile. | Select #V0 for prototype builds requiring manual placement; #X0 preferred for automated SMT lines. |
| R5F101LEDFB#X0 | Same memory, peripherals, and temp grade; packaged in 64-pin LFQFP (0.5 mm pitch) instead of LQFP (0.65 mm). | Requires PCB footprint redesign; offers higher pin density but tighter assembly tolerance. | Choose #X0 (LQFP) for legacy board compatibility and easier rework; #X0 (LFQFP) only if space-constrained and high-volume assembly is confirmed. |

FAQ
What is the flash memory configuration of the R5F101LEDFA#X0?
The R5F101LEDFA#X0 contains 16 KB of on-chip code flash memory and no data flash memory. This configuration is intended for applications with fixed firmware that does not require runtime parameter storage. The absence of data flash reduces cost and simplifies qualification for safety-critical or write-cycle-limited deployments. R5F101LEDFA#X0 retains full self-programming capability for code updates via the boot swap function.
Does the R5F101LEDFA#X0 support real-time clock functionality?
Yes, the R5F101LEDFA#X0 integrates a full-featured real-time clock (RTC) with calendar support (up to 99 years), alarm interrupt, and clock correction. It operates independently in STOP mode using the 32.768 kHz subsystem clock and requires only a 32 kHz crystal or ceramic resonator. The RTC in R5F101LEDFA#X0 eliminates the need for external timekeeping ICs in data loggers and metering applications.
What is the operating temperature range for the R5F101LEDFA#X0?
The R5F101LEDFA#X0 is rated for industrial operation from −40°C to +85°C. This temperature grade corresponds to the "D" suffix in the part numbering scheme and is validated per Renesas' industrial qualification standards. The R5F101LEDFA#X0 maintains full specification compliance across this range, including ADC accuracy, oscillator stability, and flash write endurance.
Can the R5F101LEDFA#X0 operate from a single 1.8 V supply?
Yes, the R5F101LEDFA#X0 supports operation from 1.6 V to 5.5 V, making 1.8 V fully compliant. At 1.8 V, maximum clock frequency is reduced to 16 MHz (per datasheet DC characteristics), delivering ~20.5 DMIPS. All peripherals - including ADC, UART, and RTC - remain functional, though ADC reference accuracy and oscillator tolerance shift slightly within spec limits.
How many analog input channels does the R5F101LEDFA#X0 support?
The R5F101LEDFA#X0 supports up to 26 analog input channels for its 10-bit successive approximation register (SAR) ADC. These channels are mapped across multiple port pins (e.g., ANI0–ANI25), and the ADC includes an internal 1.45 V reference voltage source usable for ratiometric or absolute measurements. Channel selection is software-controlled via the ADSPR register.
Is the R5F101LEDFA#X0 pin-compatible with other RL78/G13 variants in 64-pin LQFP?
Yes, all RL78/G13 64-pin LQFP variants - including R5F100xxDFA#X0 (with data flash) and R5F101xxDFA#X0 (no data flash) - share identical pinouts and electrical characteristics. The R5F101LEDFA#X0 is fully pin-compatible with R5F100LEDFA#X0; differences are limited to flash memory configuration and associated security features, requiring only firmware-level adjustments.
