Product details
Overview
R5F101LJAFA#V0 from Renesas is an RL78/G13 16-bit microcontroller with 128 KB flash memory, 12 KB RAM, and no data flash, housed in a 64-pin LQFP (0.65 mm pitch) package. It operates from 1.6–5.5 V, delivers 41 DMIPS at 32 MHz, and supports ultra-low-power modes including STOP (0.57 μA) and HALT, targeting battery-powered industrial sensors and smart metering interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the R5F101LJAFA#V0 datasheet, R5F101LJAFA#V0 pinout, R5F101LJAFA#V0 application, or R5F101LJAFA#V0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 64-pin LQFP-0.65mm footprint, absence of on-chip data flash, -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature grade (D), and integrated RTC, 10-bit ADC (26 channels), and multiple serial interfaces (UART, I²C, CSI).
Technical Context
The R5F101LJAFA#V0 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 subsystem clock). Its memory map spans 1 MB, with dedicated SFR space and banked 8-bit general-purpose registers.
Power management includes an on-chip POR circuit, selectable 14-level LVD for reset/interrupt, and three low-power modes (HALT, STOP, SNOOZE). Peripheral integration features a 16-bit timer array (12 channels), real-time clock with calendar/alarm, and background operation-capable peripherals such as UART and I²C.

Does R5F101LJAFA#V0 include on-chip data flash memory?
No, R5F101LJAFA#V0 does not include data flash memory. Per the RL78/G13 part numbering convention, the "101" prefix indicates no data flash; only 128 KB code flash is present. For data flash capability, consider R5F100LJAFA#V0 (8 KB data flash).
Which serial interfaces are supported by R5F101LJAFA#V0?
R5F101LJAFA#V0 supports up to 4 UART channels (with LIN-bus support), up to 10 I²C/Simplified I²C channels, and up to 8 CSI (SPI-compatible) channels. All are configurable via register settings and share pins with GPIO functions.
What is the maximum ADC resolution and channel count on R5F101LJAFA#V0?
R5F101LJAFA#V0 integrates a 10-bit successive approximation register (SAR) ADC with up to 26 analog input channels. It also includes an internal 1.45 V reference and temperature sensor, usable in HS (high-speed main) mode per datasheet note.
Is R5F101LJAFA#V0 pin-compatible with other RL78/G13 64-pin variants?
R5F101LJAFA#V0 shares the same 64-pin LQFP-0.65mm mechanical footprint and pinout with other RL78/G13 devices in the Lx series (e.g., R5F101LCAFA#V0, R5F101LDAFA#V0), but functional pin assignments (e.g., peripheral mapping) may differ - verify against individual device datasheets before substitution.
