Product details
Overview
R5F10268ASP#X5 from Renesas is a 20-pin LSSOP ultra-low-power 16-bit RL78/G12 MCU with 8 KB code flash, 2 KB data flash, 512 B RAM, and 18 I/O pins-designed for battery-powered consumer electronics operating from 1.8 V to 5.5 V at –40°C to +85°C. It integrates an 8/10-bit 11-channel ADC, dual CSI/I²C serial interfaces, UART, 4-channel 16-bit TAU timer, and on-chip CRC for firmware integrity in smart home sensors and portable medical devices.
For engineers reviewing the R5F10268ASP#X5 datasheet, R5F10268ASP#X5 pinout, R5F10268ASP#X5 application, or R5F10268ASP#X5 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package dimensions, peripheral mapping, real-world use cases, and validated alternative parts-all aligned to Renesas' R01DS0193EJ0250 Rev.2.50 specification.
Technical Context
The R5F10268ASP#X5 implements the RL78 CPU core with 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, supporting instruction execution times from 0.04167 µs (24 MHz high-speed on-chip oscillator) to 1 µs (1 MHz low-speed mode). Its memory subsystem includes 8 KB code flash (1 KB block size), 2 KB data flash with background operation (BGO) and 1M rewrite cycles, and 512 B RAM-enabling secure self-programming and real-time data logging without CPU suspension.
Peripherals are optimized for mixed-signal control: dual CSI channels support SPI-like communication with slave select flexibility; two simplified I²C interfaces operate at up to 400 kHz; UART0 provides full-duplex asynchronous communication; and the 11-channel ADC features internal 1.45 V reference and temperature sensor-enabling precise analog sensing in compact embedded systems.
