Product details
Overview
R5F102A9ASP#50 from Renesas Electronics is a 30-pin LSSOP packaged 16-bit RL78/G12 microcontroller designed for ultra-low-power embedded control in consumer-grade applications (–40°C to +85°C). It integrates 16 KB code flash, 2 KB data flash, 2 KB RAM, a 24 MHz high-accuracy on-chip oscillator (±1.0% over –20°C to +85°C), and an 8-channel 10-bit A/D converter - enabling compact sensor interface and battery-powered IoT endpoint designs.
For engineers reviewing the R5F102A9ASP#50 datasheet, R5F102A9ASP#50 pinout, R5F102A9ASP#50 application, or R5F102A9ASP#50 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2 KB data flash with background operation (BGO), dual-channel DMA, CRC hardware accelerator, and support for UART/CSI/I²C serial interfaces - all within a true low-power platform consuming just 63 μA/MHz.
Technical Context
The R5F102A9ASP#50 implements the RL78 CPU core with a 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, 1 MB address space, and selectable instruction execution time (0.04167 μs at 24 MHz). Its power management includes HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes, plus an on-chip voltage detector with 12-level interrupt/reset selection.
Peripherals are organized around TAU0 (8-channel 16-bit timer), SAU0 (4-channel serial array unit supporting UART/CSI/I²C), and dedicated hardware blocks for buzzer/clock output, key interrupt (10 inputs), and BCD correction - all accessible via configurable peripheral I/O redirection (PIOR) register mapping.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F102AAASP#50 | Same package and pinout; 16 KB code flash, 2 KB data flash, 2 KB RAM - identical memory configuration but higher-cost variant with extended temperature grade (–40°C to +105°C). | Required for industrial environments exceeding +85°C ambient; not needed for consumer-grade indoor use. | Select R5F102AAASP#50 only if operating temperature exceeds +85°C; otherwise R5F102A9ASP#50 offers identical functionality at lower cost. |
| R5F103A9ASP#50 | No data flash (0 KB), no DMA, no CRC, reduced serial interface count (UART only), ±5.0% oscillator accuracy - lower feature set and cost. | Suitable for simple control tasks without data logging or high-integrity communication; lacks BGO and hardware acceleration. | Choose R5F103A9ASP#50 when data flash, DMA, or CRC are unnecessary; R5F102A9ASP#50 is required for field-updatable firmware or safety-critical checksums. |
Compared with R5F102AAASP#50, R5F102A9ASP#50 reduces cost by omitting industrial-temperature qualification while retaining full functionality for consumer applications; versus R5F103A9ASP#50, it adds essential data storage, DMA efficiency, and hardware CRC - making it indispensable for robust, upgradable embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the R5F102A9ASP#50?
The R5F102A9ASP#50 supports a maximum system clock frequency of 24 MHz using its high-speed on-chip oscillator. This is confirmed in the datasheet's "High-speed on-chip oscillator" section, which specifies 24 MHz as the top selectable frequency with ±1.0% accuracy over –20°C to +85°C. External crystal operation is limited to 20 MHz per electrical specifications.
Does the R5F102A9ASP#50 include data flash memory?
Yes, the R5F102A9ASP#50 includes 2 KB of on-chip data flash memory, as explicitly stated in Section 1.3.1 of the datasheet. This memory supports background operation (BGO), allowing program execution from code flash while simultaneously rewriting data flash - a key capability for firmware parameter storage and field updates.
What package type does the R5F102A9ASP#50 use?
The R5F102A9ASP#50 uses a 30-pin plastic LSSOP package (7.62 mm body width, 0.65-mm lead pitch), identified by the "SP" suffix in the part number and confirmed in Table 1-1 of the datasheet. It is RoHS-compliant and designed for surface-mount reflow assembly.
How many A/D converter channels does the R5F102A9ASP#50 support?
The R5F102A9ASP#50 supports 8 analog input channels (ANI0–ANI3, ANI16–ANI19), as specified in Section 1.7 "Outline of Functions" for 30-pin R5F102Ax devices. This is fewer than the 11 channels available on 20-/24-pin variants but sufficient for most compact sensor interface applications.
Is the R5F102A9ASP#50 pin-compatible with other RL78/G12 30-pin variants?
Yes, the R5F102A9ASP#50 shares identical pinout and package with other 30-pin LSSOP RL78/G12 devices including R5F102AAASP#50 and R5F103A9ASP#50, as shown in Figure 1-4 "30-pin products" and Table 1-1. However, functional differences exist - e.g., R5F103A9ASP#50 lacks data flash and DMA - so firmware and peripheral initialization must be verified per device.
