Does the R5F101LGAFB#X0 include an integrated real-time clock (RTC)?
Yes, the R5F101LGAFB#X0 includes a dedicated real-time clock module supporting full calendar functionality (year/month/day/hour/minute/second), alarm interrupts, and automatic clock correction. It operates independently in STOP mode with only 0.57 μA current draw, enabling time-stamped event logging and scheduled wake-ups.
How much data flash memory does the R5F101LGAFB#X0 provide, and what is its endurance?
The R5F101LGAFB#X0 provides 8 KB of on-chip data flash memory rated for 1,000,000 write/erase cycles at VDD = 1.8–5.5 V. It supports background operation (BGO), allowing program execution from code flash while rewriting data flash - essential for reliable firmware update and parameter storage.
What low-power modes are supported by the R5F101LGAFB#X0, and what are their typical current draws?
The R5F101LGAFB#X0 supports HALT (66 μA/MHz), STOP (0.57 μA with RTC + LVD active), and SNOOZE modes. In STOP mode, it maintains RTC operation, LVD monitoring, and wake-on-pin functionality while drawing less than 1 μA - ideal for battery-powered endpoints requiring multi-year operation.
Is the R5F101LGAFB#X0 pin-compatible with other RL78/G13 variants in the same package?
Yes, the R5F101LGAFB#X0 shares identical pinout and package (64-pin LFQFP, 0.5-mm pitch) with all other RL78/G13 devices in the FB suffix family, including R5F100LGAFB#X0 and R5F101LGAFB#V0.
