FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and accuracy of the on-chip oscillator in R5F10268GSM#35?
The R5F10268GSM#35 features a high-speed on-chip oscillator rated up to 24 MHz with ±1.0% accuracy over –20°C to +85°C ambient, and ±2.0% over its full –40°C to +105°C industrial range. This oscillator serves as the default clock source post-reset and supports dynamic switching between 1–24 MHz frequencies without external components, enabling rapid wake-up and adaptive power scaling in the R5F10268GSM#35.
Does R5F10268GSM#35 support background data flash rewriting while executing application code?
Yes, the R5F10268GSM#35 supports Background Operation (BGO) for its 2 KB data flash memory. This allows the CPU to execute instructions from program memory while simultaneously erasing or writing data flash sectors - essential for non-disruptive firmware updates, parameter logging, or secure key storage in safety-critical R5F10268GSM#35 deployments.
How many serial communication interfaces does R5F10268GSM#35 integrate, and what types are they?
The R5F10268GSM#35 integrates two simplified SPI (CSI) channels, two simplified I²C (IIC00/IIC01) channels, and one UART0 channel - all accessible via remappable pins on its 20-pin TSSOP package. These interfaces operate independently and support concurrent communication with multiple peripherals, such as environmental sensors, displays, and wireless modules, without resource contention in the R5F10268GSM#35.
What is the analog capability of R5F10268GSM#35, and does it include internal reference voltage?
The R5F10268GSM#35 includes an 11-channel, 10-bit A/D converter with internal 1.45 V reference voltage and dedicated AVREFP/AVREFM pins for differential measurement. It supports simultaneous sampling across multiple channels and integrates a temperature sensor and voltage monitor - eliminating external references and reducing analog BOM cost in R5F10268GSM#35-based designs.
Is R5F10268GSM#35 pin-compatible with other RL78/G12 20-pin variants like R5F10267GSM#35 or R5F10269GSM#35?
Yes, the R5F10268GSM#35 shares identical TSSOP20 pinout, electrical characteristics, and peripheral mapping with R5F10267GSM#35 and R5F10269GSM#35 - differing only in code flash size (4 KB / 8 KB / 12 KB) and RAM capacity (256 B / 512 B / 768 B). This enables drop-in replacement during prototyping or production ramp without PCB redesign for the R5F10268GSM#35.
