Product details
Overview
R5F10279GNA#25 from Renesas Electronics is a 24-pin HWQFN-packaged RL78/G12 16-bit microcontroller designed for industrial embedded control at extended temperature (–40°C to +105°C). It integrates 12 KB code flash, 2 KB data flash, 1.5 KB RAM, a 24 MHz high-accuracy ±1.0% on-chip oscillator, and supports ultra-low-power operation down to 63 μA/MHz - enabling battery-powered sensor nodes and motor control in HVAC systems.
For engineers reviewing the R5F10279GNA#25 datasheet, R5F10279GNA#25 pinout, R5F10279GNA#25 application, or R5F10279GNA#25 equivalent, key selection considerations include its G-grade industrial temperature rating, dual-channel DMA support, integrated CRC and RAM/SFR guard safety features, 11-channel 10-bit ADC with internal reference, and hardware-based simplified I²C/CSI/UART serial interfaces - all within a compact 4 × 4 mm HWQFN package.
Technical Context
The R5F10279GNA#25 implements the RL78 CPU core with 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, delivering 31 DMIPS at 24 MHz while supporting variable instruction execution time (0.04167 µs minimum). Its power management includes HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes, with on-chip POR, LVD (12-level selectable), and dedicated 15 kHz low-speed oscillator for watchdog timing.
Peripheral integration centers on TAU0 16-bit timer (4 channels), SAU0 serial array unit (2 CSI + 2 I²C + 1 UART), 10-bit A/D converter (11 channels, AVREFP/M inputs), and programmable clock/buzzer output (PCLBUZ0). All peripherals are accessible via configurable port pins with N-ch open-drain capability (6 V tolerant on P60/P61) and key interrupt support (KR0–KR9).

The 2 KB data flash operates with background operation (BGO), allowing code execution from main flash while rewriting data - essential for firmware updates and parameter storage in deployed systems.
What safety features are implemented in the R5F10279GNA#25 for industrial applications?
The R5F10279GNA#25 includes CRC calculation hardware, RAM guard, and SFR guard - all confirmed in the RL78/G12 datasheet for R5F102-series devices. These features detect memory corruption and prevent unintended register writes, supporting functional safety compliance (e.g., IEC 61508) without external supervision circuitry. The G-grade temperature range further validates its use in harsh environments.
How many analog input channels and what ADC resolution does the R5F10279GNA#25 provide?
The R5F10279GNA#25 integrates a 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with 11 input channels (ANI0–ANI3, ANI16–ANI22). It includes internal 1.45 V reference voltage and temperature sensor, enabling accurate ratiometric measurements and ambient monitoring without external references or calibration components - verified in the device's electrical specifications table.
Is the R5F10279GNA#25 pin-compatible with other RL78/G12 variants in the same package?
Yes, the R5F10279GNA#25 shares identical pinout and HWQFN-24 footprint with all R5F1027x and R5F1037x variants (e.g., R5F1027AGNA#25, R5F10379GNA#25).
