For engineers reviewing the R5F1026AGSM#55 datasheet, R5F1026AGSM#55 pinout, R5F1026AGSM#55 application, or R5F1026AGSM#55 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, package-validated pin functions, real-world use cases, and two confirmed alternative parts for industrial-grade embedded designs requiring data flash persistence, low-voltage operation, and on-chip debug support.
Technical Context
The R5F1026AGSM#55 implements the RL78 CPU core with CISC architecture, 3-stage pipeline, and 1 MB address space, supporting instruction execution times from 0.04167 μs (@24 MHz high-speed on-chip oscillator) to 1 μs (@1 MHz). It integrates a 2-channel DMA controller, CRC calculation unit, and RAM guard for functional safety compliance in industrial applications.
Its clock system includes a high-accuracy ±1.0% (−20 to +85°C) high-speed on-chip oscillator (1–24 MHz selectable), low-speed 15 kHz on-chip oscillator, and external crystal input (X1/X2, up to 20 MHz), enabling flexible power/performance trade-offs across HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE low-power modes.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F1026AASM#55 | Same RL78/G12 core, identical 16 KB/2 KB/1.5 KB memory, but rated for −40°C to +85°C (A-grade) instead of +105°C (G-grade) | Suitable for consumer-grade thermostats or white goods where ambient temperature remains below 85°C | Select when industrial temperature range is not required - lower cost and wider distributor availability |
| R5F1027AGNA#U5 | 24-pin HWQFN package (4×4 mm), adds 4 additional I/O pins and supports same 16 KB/2 KB/1.5 KB memory; shares identical G-grade temp rating and peripheral set | Better suited for space-constrained industrial PLC I/O modules requiring more GPIO for discrete input conditioning | Choose when board layout allows smaller footprint and higher pin density is needed - same firmware compatibility |
Compared with R5F1026AGSM#55, the R5F1026AASM#55 offers identical functionality at lower thermal grade and cost, while the R5F1027AGNA#U5 provides pin-count expansion in a smaller package without sacrificing data flash or safety features - enabling scalable design reuse across product tiers.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the R5F1026AGSM#55?
The R5F1026AGSM#55 supports a maximum system clock frequency of 24 MHz using its high-speed on-chip oscillator. When using an external crystal (X1/X2), the maximum frequency is 20 MHz. The CPU executes instructions in as little as 0.04167 μs at 24 MHz, delivering 31 DMIPS performance. This frequency is fully supported across the full −40°C to +105°C industrial temperature range specified for the R5F1026AGSM#55.
Does the R5F1026AGSM#55 include data flash memory, and what is its endurance?
Yes, the R5F1026AGSM#55 includes 2 KB of dedicated data flash memory with 1,000,000 write/erase cycles (typical) and full background operation (BGO) capability. This allows the R5F1026AGSM#55 to execute application code from main flash while simultaneously rewriting data flash - essential for logging, calibration storage, and firmware parameter updates in field-deployed equipment.
What low-power modes does the R5F1026AGSM#55 support, and what are their typical current draws?
The R5F1026AGSM#55 supports HALT mode (0.52 μA), STOP mode (0.37 μA), and SNOOZE mode (1.2 μA) at 3.3 V and 25°C. All modes retain RAM content and allow wake-up via selected peripherals or interrupts. These values scale linearly with supply voltage, enabling sub-microamp system sleep in battery-powered applications - a key differentiator versus competing 16-bit MCUs without SNOOZE capability.
Is the R5F1026AGSM#55 pin-compatible with other RL78/G12 family members?
The R5F1026AGSM#55 uses a 20-pin TSSOP package (PTSP0020JI-A) and shares identical pinout with all other R5F1026x-series variants (e.g., R5F1026AASM#55, R5F10269GSM#55). However, it is not pin-compatible with 24-pin (HWQFN) or 30-pin (LSSOP) RL78/G12 devices due to differing pin counts and package footprints - PCB redesign is required for migration between package types.
What debug interface does the R5F1026AGSM#55 provide, and how many pins are required?
The R5F1026AGSM#55 provides a single-wire on-chip debug interface using three dedicated pins: TOOL0 (P40), TOOLRxD (P11), and TOOLTxD (P12). This eliminates the need for standard JTAG/SWD headers, reducing PCB footprint and connector cost. Full debug functionality - including breakpoints, memory inspection, and real-time trace - is supported without external debug probes beyond Renesas' E2 emulator.
