FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and corresponding performance of the R5F101MJAFA#10?
The R5F101MJAFA#10 operates at up to 32 MHz using its high-speed on-chip oscillator, delivering 41 DMIPS of processing performance. Its minimum instruction execution time is 0.03125 μs under this condition. The core also supports ultra-low-speed operation down to 32.768 kHz (30.5 μs instruction time) for RTC and low-power monitoring tasks-enabling dynamic performance scaling based on real-time workload demands.
Does the R5F101MJAFA#10 include data flash memory, and what are its endurance and voltage requirements?
Yes, the R5F101MJAFA#10 includes 8 KB of on-chip data flash memory rated for 1,000,000 write/erase cycles (typical). It supports background operation (BGO), allowing program execution from code flash during data flash rewrites. Voltage requirements for data flash programming are VDD = 1.8 V to 5.5 V, enabling reliable operation across wide input ranges without auxiliary charge pumps or external regulators.
What package type and pin count does the R5F101MJAFA#10 use, and is it RoHS compliant?
The R5F101MJAFA#10 uses an 80-pin LQFP package with 0.65-mm pitch (14 × 14 mm body), designated by the "FA" suffix in its part number. It is RoHS-compliant and qualified for industrial temperature operation (-40°C to +85°C). The package supports standard reflow soldering profiles and is compatible with automated assembly processes used in high-volume manufacturing.
How many analog-to-digital converter (ADC) channels does the R5F101MJAFA#10 support, and what resolution and references are available?
The R5F101MJAFA#10 integrates a 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with up to 26 analog input channels. It supports internal reference voltages including a factory-calibrated 1.45 V reference and an on-chip temperature sensor. External reference inputs (AVREFP/AVREFM) allow ratiometric measurements, and the ADC operates across the full 1.6 V to 5.5 V supply range-ensuring accuracy in varying power conditions.
What low-power modes are supported by the R5F101MJAFA#10, and what is the typical current consumption in each?
The R5F101MJAFA#10 supports HALT (66 μA/MHz), STOP (0.57 μA with RTC and LVD active), and SNOOZE modes. In STOP mode, only the RTC and low-voltage detector remain powered-enabling multi-year battery life in always-on monitoring applications. SNOOZE mode allows selected peripherals (e.g., UART, ADC) to operate autonomously while the CPU sleeps, reducing average system current without sacrificing responsiveness.
