Product details
Overview
R5F102A9ASP#70 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, an 8-channel 10-bit A/D converter, and dual serial interfaces (UART + CSI/I²C) - enabling compact sensor node and appliance control designs with background data flash rewriting capability.
For engineers reviewing the R5F102A9ASP#70 datasheet, R5F102A9ASP#70 pinout, R5F102A9ASP#70 application, or R5F102A9ASP#70 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 2 KB on-chip data flash with 1M-cycle endurance, 30-pin LSSOP package with REGC regulator capacitor pin, 8-channel ADC with internal reference, and support for SNOOZE mode operation at 1.8 V - all critical for battery-powered IoT edge nodes and white-goods MCU replacements.
Technical Context
The R5F102A9ASP#70 implements the RL78 CPU core with 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, delivering 31 DMIPS at 24 MHz while maintaining true low-power operation (63 μA/MHz). Its clock system combines a high-accuracy ±1.0% 24 MHz on-chip oscillator (–20°C to +85°C), 15 kHz low-speed oscillator, and external crystal support up to 20 MHz via X1/X2 pins.
Peripheral integration includes two DMA channels, CRC calculation unit, RAM/SFR guard for functional safety, and TAU timer array with 8 capture/compare channels - configured for PWM generation, interval timing, and input capture across multiple I/O ports including P0, P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6, P12, P13, and P14.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and instruction throughput of the R5F102A9ASP#70?
The R5F102A9ASP#70 supports a maximum high-speed on-chip oscillator frequency of 24 MHz, achieving 31 DMIPS performance. Its minimum instruction execution time is 0.04167 µs under 24 MHz operation, enabled by the RL78 CPU's 3-stage pipeline architecture. External crystal operation is limited to 20 MHz, yielding slightly lower throughput.
Does the R5F102A9ASP#70 support background data flash rewriting while executing application code?
Yes, the R5F102A9ASP#70 supports background operation (BGO) for its 2 KB data flash memory. This allows the CPU to execute instructions from code flash while simultaneously rewriting data flash - essential for storing runtime parameters, calibration data, or firmware update metadata without interrupting system operation.
What are the analog input capabilities of the R5F102A9ASP#70?
The R5F102A9ASP#70 features an 8-channel, 10-bit A/D converter with selectable resolution (8/10-bit), internal 1.45 V reference voltage, and integrated temperature sensor. Input channels include ANI0–ANI3 and ANI16–ANI19, supporting single-ended acquisition with VDD or internal reference as the upper limit.
How is the REGC pin used on the R5F102A9ASP#70, and what happens if it's left unconnected?
The REGC pin on the R5F102A9ASP#70 must be connected to VSS via a 0.47–1 µF capacitor to stabilize the internal voltage regulator. Leaving it unconnected risks unstable ADC performance, inaccurate analog measurements, and potential malfunction of internal analog circuitry - as confirmed in the RL78/G12 datasheet Section 1.4.3 and Absolute Maximum Ratings.
Is the R5F102A9ASP#70 pin-compatible with other RL78/G12 30-pin variants like R5F102AAASP#70?
Yes, the R5F102A9ASP#70 is pin-compatible with all RL78/G12 30-pin LSSOP variants including R5F102AAASP#70, R5F102A8ASP#70, and R5F102A7ASP#70. They share identical pin configuration, electrical characteristics, and package dimensions - differing only in memory size, temperature grade, and optional peripheral enablement per datasheet Table 1-1.
