Product details
Overview
R5F101LFAFB#10 from Renesas is a 64-pin LFQFP-0.5mm-pitch 16-bit RL78/G13 microcontroller with 64 KB flash, 4 KB RAM, no data flash, and industrial-grade operation (−40°C to +85°C). It integrates a 32 MHz high-accuracy on-chip oscillator (±1.0%), 10-bit 26-channel ADC, RTC with calendar/alarm, and ultra-low-power STOP mode (0.57 μA). It targets battery-powered industrial sensors and embedded control systems requiring deterministic real-time response and long-term reliability.
For engineers reviewing the R5F101LFAFB#10 datasheet, R5F101LFAFB#10 pinout, R5F101LFAFB#10 application, or R5F101LFAFB#10 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 64-pin LFQFP package, absence of data flash memory, −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature rating, 64 KB code flash capacity, and support for SNOOZE-mode peripheral wake-up without CPU intervention.
Technical Context
The R5F101LFAFB#10 implements the RL78 CPU core with CISC architecture and 3-stage pipeline, enabling 41 DMIPS at 32 MHz while maintaining ultra-low active power (66 μA/MHz). Its instruction execution time scales from 0.03125 μs (32 MHz) to 30.5 μs (32.768 kHz), supporting both high-speed control loops and ultra-low-power RTC-only operation.
It features dual-clock domains: a high-speed main system clock (up to 32 MHz) and a dedicated low-speed subsystem clock (32.768 kHz) for RTC and watchdog timer. Peripheral integration includes 16× 16-bit timers, 3× I²C channels, 4× UART/LIN interfaces, and DMA with 2-channel support-enabling concurrent serial communication and memory transfers without CPU load.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and corresponding performance of the R5F101LFAFB#10?
The R5F101LFAFB#10 operates at up to 32 MHz using its high-speed on-chip oscillator, delivering 41 DMIPS of processing performance. Its RL78 CPU core achieves this with a 3-stage pipeline and supports variable instruction timing - from 0.03125 μs at 32 MHz down to 30.5 μs at 32.768 kHz - enabling both high-speed control and ultra-low-power RTC operation within the same R5F101LFAFB#10 device.
Does the R5F101LFAFB#10 include data flash memory?
No, the R5F101LFAFB#10 does not include data flash memory. The "101" in the part number explicitly denotes "data flash not provided", per Renesas' RL78/G13 part numbering convention. Applications requiring non-volatile parameter storage must use external EEPROM, FRAM, or rely on code flash reprogramming with appropriate wear-leveling - unlike the R5F100LFAFB#10 variant which includes 4 KB of dedicated data flash.
What are the supported low-power modes and their typical current consumption for R5F101LFAFB#10?
The R5F101LFAFB#10 supports HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes. In STOP mode with only RTC and LVD active, it consumes 0.57 μA - ideal for battery-backed timekeeping and periodic wake-up. HALT mode draws 66 μA/MHz during active computation. SNOOZE mode allows selected peripherals (e.g., UART, ADC) to operate autonomously while CPU remains halted, reducing average system power in event-driven applications using the R5F101LFAFB#10.
Which serial communication protocols does the R5F101LFAFB#10 support natively?
The R5F101LFAFB#10 integrates native hardware support for UART/LIN (up to 4 channels), I²C (up to 3 channels), and CSI (SPI-compatible serial interface, up to 8 channels). All are independently configurable and can operate concurrently. LIN compliance includes automatic sync-break detection and checksum generation, enabling direct integration into automotive body electronics or industrial LIN networks using the R5F101LFAFB#10 without external protocol translators.
What is the ADC resolution, channel count, and reference configuration for R5F101LFAFB#10?
The R5F101LFAFB#10 features a 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with up to 26 input channels. It supports selectable reference sources: external AVREFP/AVREFM pins or internal 1.45 V reference. The internal reference enables ratiometric measurements and eliminates external voltage references in thermal sensing or battery monitoring applications - a key design advantage of the R5F101LFAFB#10 for compact, low-BOM-cost systems.
