Product details
Overview
R5F10369ASM#55 from Renesas Electronics is a 20-pin RL78/G12 16-bit microcontroller with 12 KB code flash, 768 B RAM, and no data flash memory, operating at 1.8–5.5 V across –40°C to +85°C for consumer applications. It delivers 31 DMIPS at 24 MHz, integrates an 8/10-bit 11-channel ADC, UART, CSI, and 4-channel 16-bit TAU timer, and targets low-power sensor interface and appliance control.
For engineers reviewing the R5F10369ASM#55 datasheet, R5F10369ASM#55 pinout, R5F10369ASM#55 application, or R5F10369ASM#55 equivalent, key selection criteria include its TSSOP-20 package, absence of DMA and data flash, ±5% high-speed on-chip oscillator accuracy over full temperature range, and support for single-supply operation down to 1.8 V in HALT/STOP/SNOOZE low-power modes.
Technical Context
The R5F10369ASM#55 implements the RL78 CPU core with CISC architecture and 3-stage pipeline, enabling minimum instruction execution time of 0.04167 µs at 24 MHz using the high-speed on-chip oscillator. Its memory map spans 1 MB address space, with on-chip RAM mapped at fixed locations and code flash organized in 1 KB blocks.
Peripheral integration includes one UART channel, one simplified SPI (CSI) channel, no simplified I²C, and a 12-bit interval timer plus watchdog timer. Power management features POR, LVD with 12 selectable thresholds, and dedicated low-speed on-chip oscillator (15 kHz) for watchdog operation independent of main clock.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and corresponding DMIPS rating for the R5F10369ASM#55?
The R5F10369ASM#55 operates at up to 24 MHz using its high-speed on-chip oscillator and achieves 31 DMIPS at that frequency. This performance level is confirmed in the official Renesas datasheet R01DS0193EJ0250 and reflects integer computation throughput under typical conditions with compiler-optimized code.
Does the R5F10369ASM#55 include data flash memory, and how does it differ from R5F102xx variants?
No, the R5F10369ASM#55 does not include data flash memory - this is a defining distinction from R5F102xx parts, which integrate 2 KB of data flash. The R5F10369ASM#55 relies solely on its 12 KB code flash for both program storage and parameter retention, requiring software-managed wear leveling if EEPROM-like functionality is needed.
What low-power modes are supported by the R5F10369ASM#55, and what is the typical current draw in STOP mode?
The R5F10369ASM#55 supports HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes. In STOP mode with RAM retention and watchdog enabled, typical current draw is 0.52 μA at 3.0 V and 25°C. Full details appear in Section 1.1 "Features" and electrical characteristics tables of the R01DS0193EJ0250 datasheet.
Can the R5F10369ASM#55 drive standard 5 V logic interfaces directly, and which pins support higher voltage tolerance?
The R5F10369ASM#55 operates from 1.8–5.5 V but only two pins - P60 and P61 - are rated for 6 V tolerant N-ch open-drain operation. All other I/O pins are limited to VDD + 0.3 V (max 5.8 V). Direct 5 V logic interfacing is safe only when VDD = 5.0 V and signals remain within absolute maximum ratings; level shifters are recommended for robust 5 V compatibility.
What serial communication interfaces are integrated into the R5F10369ASM#55, and how many channels does each support?
The R5F10369ASM#55 integrates one UART channel, one simplified SPI (CSI) channel, and zero simplified I²C channels. It also includes one full I²C bus interface (IICA0). These interfaces share pins via peripheral I/O redirection (PIOR), allowing flexible assignment but not concurrent multi-channel operation beyond the stated counts.
