Product details
Overview
R5F102A8GSP#10 from Renesas Electronics is a 30-pin LSSOP packaged RL78/G12 16-bit microcontroller designed for industrial embedded control at extended temperature (–40°C to +105°C). It integrates 8 KB code flash, 2 KB data flash, 512 B RAM, 10-bit A/D converter (8 channels), UART/CSI/I²C serial interfaces, 8-channel 16-bit TAU timer, and DMA controller - enabling low-power sensor node and motor control applications.
For engineers reviewing the R5F102A8GSP#10 datasheet, R5F102A8GSP#10 pinout, R5F102A8GSP#10 application, or R5F102A8GSP#10 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package mapping, functional pin roles, real-world use cases, and validated alternative parts - all aligned with Rev.2.50 (Jan 2025) official documentation.
Technical Context
The R5F102A8GSP#10 implements the RL78 CPU core with 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, supporting 1 MB address space and minimum instruction execution time of 0.04167 µs at 24 MHz (high-speed on-chip oscillator). Its power management includes HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes achieving 63 µA/MHz active current consumption.
It features dual-oscillator support: high-accuracy ±1.0% (–20°C to +85°C) 1–24 MHz on-chip oscillator and external crystal/ceramic input (X1/X2) up to 20 MHz. Safety functions include CRC operation, RAM guard, and SFR guard - exclusive to R5F102-series devices and absent in R5F103 variants.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F102A7GSP#10 | 4 KB code flash, 256 B RAM, same 30-pin LSSOP package and G-grade temp range | Limited memory headroom for complex protocols or large lookup tables | Select when firmware size ≤ 3.5 KB and RAM usage < 200 B; lower cost for fixed-function metering |
| R5F103A8GSP#10 | No data flash, no DMA, no CRC/RAM/SFR guard; identical pinout and core performance | Not suitable for field-upgradable firmware or safety-certified designs requiring memory protection | Choose only for cost-sensitive consumer products where data retention and functional safety are non-critical |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the R5F102A8GSP#10 using its internal oscillator?
The R5F102A8GSP#10 supports a high-speed on-chip oscillator up to 24 MHz with ±1.0% accuracy over –20°C to +85°C ambient. At full 24 MHz operation, it delivers 31 DMIPS performance and achieves 63 µA/MHz active current consumption - confirmed in Section 1.1 and Table 1-1 of R01DS0193EJ0250 Rev.2.50.
Does the R5F102A8GSP#10 support in-application programming (IAP) of its code flash memory?
Yes, the R5F102A8GSP#10 supports self-programming of code flash memory using the RL78 Family Flash Self Programming Library Type01. This requires dedicated library routines and consumes code flash and RAM resources during execution - details are specified in Chapter 3 of the RL78/G12 User's Manual and R01DS0193EJ0250 Section 1.1.
How many analog input channels are accessible on the R5F102A8GSP#10, and what is their resolution?
The R5F102A8GSP#10 provides 8 analog input channels (ANI0–ANI3, ANI16–ANI19) with 10-bit resolution and an internal 1.45 V reference voltage. The A/D converter operates across the full 1.8–5.5 V supply range - as documented in Section 1.1 "A/D converter" and Table 1-1 of R01DS0193EJ0250 Rev.2.50.
Is the R5F102A8GSP#10 pin-compatible with other RL78/G12 30-pin variants like R5F103A8GSP#10?
Yes, the R5F102A8GSP#10 shares identical 30-pin LSSOP pinout and package (PLSP0030JB-B) with R5F103A8GSP#10 and R5F102A7GSP#10. However, functional differences exist: R5F102A8GSP#10 includes data flash, DMA, and CRC/RAM/SFR guard features that R5F103A8GSP#10 lacks - per Section 1.3 of R01DS0193EJ0250 Rev.2.50.
What safety features are implemented in the R5F102A8GSP#10 that distinguish it from R5F103-series MCUs?
The R5F102A8GSP#10 includes CRC operation unit, RAM guard, and SFR guard - hardware mechanisms that detect memory corruption and prevent unauthorized register writes. These features are explicitly absent in all R5F103-series devices, as confirmed in Section 1.3.3 "Peripheral Functions" of R01DS0193EJ0250 Rev.2.50.
