Product details
Overview
R5F101LFDFB#50 from Renesas is a 64-pin, LFQFP-0.5 mm pitch, 128 KB flash, 8 KB data flash, 12 KB RAM RL78/G13 16-bit microcontroller with ultra-low power consumption (66 μA/MHz active, 0.57 μA RTC+LVD), 32 MHz max CPU speed, and integrated 10-bit ADC (26 channels), RTC, and multiple serial interfaces - deployed in industrial sensor nodes and battery-powered control modules.
For engineers reviewing the R5F101LFDFB#50 datasheet, R5F101LFDFB#50 pinout, R5F101LFDFB#50 application, or R5F101LFDFB#50 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 64-pin LFQFP package, absence of on-chip data flash (R5F101x series), -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature grade (D suffix), and support for SNOOZE mode operation with background data flash rewriting.
Technical Context
The R5F101LFDFB#50 implements the RL78 CPU core with 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, supporting variable instruction execution time (0.03125 μs at 32 MHz to 30.5 μs at 32.768 kHz) and 1 MB address space. It integrates dual-clock domains: high-speed main system clock (up to 32 MHz) and independent subsystem clock (32.768 kHz) for RTC and LVD operation during ultra-low-power STOP mode.
Its peripheral set includes eight 16-bit timers, one 12-bit interval timer, one calendar RTC with alarm and correction, one watchdog timer, up to ten I²C/Simplified I²C channels, four UART/LIN channels, and eight CSI (SPI-compatible) channels - all configurable via dedicated SFRs without external glue logic.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F100LFDFB#50 | Includes 8 KB on-chip data flash; same pinout, package, and peripheral set | Required where field firmware updates or parameter storage without external EEPROM is needed | Select when non-volatile parameter retention or bootloader swap functionality is mandatory |
| R5F101LFAFB#50 | 64-pin LQFP-0.65 mm pitch (PLQP0064JA-A); identical memory/peripheral spec but different footprint | Preferred for legacy PCB designs using standard LQFP land patterns | Choose for compatibility with existing LQFP-0.65 mm assembly processes and tooling |
Compared with R5F100LFDFB#50, the R5F101LFDFB#50 saves board space and cost by omitting data flash while retaining full code flash and RAM - ideal for fixed-function firmware deployments; versus R5F101LFAFB#50, it offers finer pitch and higher I/O density in the same pin count, reducing PCB layer count in space-constrained designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and corresponding DMIPS rating for the R5F101LFDFB#50?
The R5F101LFDFB#50 operates at up to 32 MHz and delivers 41 DMIPS (Dhrystone MIPS) at that frequency. This performance level supports real-time control loops with sub-25 μs execution time, making it suitable for brushless DC motor commutation and fast-response industrial safety monitoring. The RL78 core achieves this with a 3-stage pipeline and efficient CISC instruction set.
Does the R5F101LFDFB#50 include on-chip data flash memory?
No, the R5F101LFDFB#50 does not include on-chip data flash memory. As indicated by the "101" in its part number (per Renesas RL78/G13 documentation), it provides 128 KB of code flash and 12 KB of RAM but zero data flash - unlike the "100" series (e.g., R5F100LFDFB#50) which includes 8 KB. Firmware must use code flash sectors or external memory for non-volatile parameter storage.
What package type and pin count does the R5F101LFDFB#50 use?
The R5F101LFDFB#50 uses a 64-pin LFQFP (Low-profile Fine-pitch Quad Flat Package) with 0.5 mm pitch and 10 mm × 10 mm body size (RENESAS code PLQP0064KF-A). The "FB" suffix explicitly denotes LFQFP-0.5 mm, distinguishing it from LQFP-0.65 mm ("FA") and QFN variants - critical for PCB footprint and reflow profile selection.
What is the operating temperature range specified for the R5F101LFDFB#50?
The R5F101LFDFB#50 is rated for industrial operation from -40°C to +85°C, indicated by the "D" suffix in its ordering code. This qualification meets JEDEC JESD22-A104 reliability standards and supports deployment in factory automation equipment, outdoor environmental sensors, and commercial HVAC systems without derating.
Which debug interface does the R5F101LFDFB#50 support, and how many pins are required?
The R5F101LFDFB#50 supports Serial Wire Debug (SWD) using two dedicated pins: SWDIO (bidirectional data) and SWCLK (clock). This 2-pin interface enables full flash programming, real-time variable inspection, and hardware breakpoints without halting peripheral operation - significantly reducing development time versus JTAG-based alternatives.
