Product details
Overview
R5F1037AANA#U0 from Renesas Electronics is a 24-pin HWQFN-packaged RL78/G12 16-bit microcontroller designed for ultra-low-power embedded control in consumer-grade applications (–40°C to +85°C). It integrates 12 KB code flash, 1 KB RAM, 10-bit 11-channel ADC, 4-channel 16-bit timer, UART, CSI, and high-speed on-chip oscillator (up to 24 MHz) with ±5.0% accuracy. It delivers 31 DMIPS at 24 MHz and operates from 1.8 V to 5.5 V.
For engineers reviewing the R5F1037AANA#U0 datasheet, R5F1037AANA#U0 pinout, R5F1037AANA#U0 application, or R5F1037AANA#U0 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 24-pin HWQFN footprint, absence of data flash memory, lack of DMA and safety functions (CRC, RAM/SFR guard), and reduced serial interface count versus R5F1027x variants - all critical for cost-sensitive, battery-powered sensor and appliance control designs.
Technical Context
The R5F1037AANA#U0 implements the RL78 CPU core with CISC architecture and 3-stage pipeline, supporting 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 12 KB code flash organized in 1 KB blocks and no data flash - distinguishing it from R5F1027x family members.
Peripheral configuration includes one UART channel, one simplified SPI (CSI) channel, zero simplified I²C channels, and four 16-bit timer output channels (with up to three PWM outputs). It lacks DMA controller, CRC unit, and RAM/SFR guard features present in R5F1027x, confirming its role as a streamlined, entry-level variant within the RL78/G12 family for non-safety-critical applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Core Architecture | RL78 16-bit CISC with 3-stage pipeline; enables deterministic real-time control with low gate count and power efficiency. |
| Operating Voltage | 1.8 V to 5.5 V; supports direct interfacing with 1.8/2.5/3.3/5 V logic without level shifters. |
| Flash/RAM | 12 KB code flash (1 KB blocks), 1 KB RAM; sufficient for compact firmware with limited variable storage. |
| ADC | 10-bit resolution, 11 input channels, internal 1.45 V reference; suitable for analog sensor monitoring in home appliances. |
| Timers | 4-channel 16-bit TAU, 1-channel 12-bit interval timer, 1-window watchdog; provides flexible timing, PWM generation, and system supervision. |
| Oscillator Accuracy | ±5.0% over –40°C to +85°C; adequate for non-precision timing but requires external crystal for UART baud rate stability. |
| Serial Interfaces | 1 UART, 1 CSI (SPI-compatible), 0 simplified I²C; limits multi-protocol peripheral connectivity compared to higher-tier variants. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 24-pin HWQFN (4 × 4 mm, 0.5-mm pitch), exposed die pad recommended to be connected to VSS for thermal and electrical stability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| P00–P03 | Port 0 I/O | General-purpose CMOS I/O with N-ch open-drain option; P02/P03 support SCL01/SDA01 remapping via PIOR. |
| P10–P14 | Port 1 I/O | Primary digital I/O bank; P10–P12 host UART0 (RxD0/TxD0), CSI00 (SCK00/SI00/SO00), and SCL00/SDA00. |
| P20–P23 | Analog Input / Reference | ANI0–ANI3 with AVREFP/AVREFM; supports single-ended or differential ADC measurements with internal reference. |
| P40–P42 | Port 4 I/O | P40 = TOOL0 (debug interface); P41/P42 = ANI22/ANI21 with CSI01/SCL01 remap capability. |
| P60/P61 | I²C Interface | SCLA0/SDAA0 pins; support standard-mode I²C communication (not simplified I²C) - only I²C bus available on this variant. |
| P121/P122 | Crystal Oscillator | X1/X2 inputs for external crystal; required for precise timing when on-chip oscillator accuracy is insufficient. |
| P125 | Reset Input | Active-low RESET pin with internal pull-up; accepts external reset assertion or can be driven by power-on-reset circuit. |
| VDD/VSS | Power Supply | Single 1.8–5.5 V supply; VSS must connect to exposed die pad for optimal thermal performance and noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F1027AANA#U0 | Includes 2 KB data flash, DMA controller, CRC unit, RAM/SFR guard, and ±1.0% oscillator accuracy. | Required for firmware-over-the-air updates, safety-certified designs, or high-accuracy timing-critical UART/I²C. | Select R5F1027AANA#U0 when data logging, functional safety compliance, or tighter clock tolerance is mandatory. |
| R5F1037ADNA#U0 | Identical silicon but rated for industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C with D-grade qualification). | Needed for deployment in environments with extended thermal cycling or higher reliability requirements. | Choose R5F1037ADNA#U0 for industrial equipment where A-grade consumer qualification is insufficient. |
Compared with R5F1027AANA#U0, the R5F1037AANA#U0 reduces BOM cost by omitting data flash and safety peripherals while maintaining identical package and core performance; versus R5F1037ADNA#U0, it trades industrial qualification for lower unit price in consumer-grade applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the R5F1037AANA#U0?
The R5F1037AANA#U0 supports a maximum high-speed on-chip oscillator frequency of 24 MHz, delivering 31 DMIPS performance. External crystal operation is limited to 20 MHz in HS mode (VDD ≥ 2.7 V) or 16 MHz (VDD ≥ 2.4 V), per the RL78/G12 datasheet. The actual achievable frequency depends on VDD level and oscillator configuration.
Does the R5F1037AANA#U0 include data flash memory?
No, the R5F1037AANA#U0 does not include data flash memory. This is a defining distinction from the R5F1027x series, which integrates 2 KB of data flash. The R5F1037AANA#U0 relies solely on its 12 KB code flash for program storage and non-volatile parameter retention via software-managed flash sectors.
What are the key differences between R5F1037AANA#U0 and R5F1027AANA#U0?
The R5F1037AANA#U0 omits data flash (2 KB), DMA controller (2 channels), CRC unit, RAM guard, and SFR guard - features present in R5F1027AANA#U0. It also has reduced oscillator accuracy (±5.0% vs ±1.0%) and fewer serial interfaces (no simplified I²C, only 1 CSI channel). These differences position R5F1037AANA#U0 as a lower-cost, streamlined variant.
Which package type does the R5F1037AANA#U0 use?
The R5F1037AANA#U0 uses a 24-pin HWQFN package (4 × 4 mm, 0.5-mm pitch) with an exposed die pad. The Renesas part number suffix "NA" explicitly denotes this HWQFN variant, and the #U0 packaging code indicates tray packaging. Thermal design must connect the exposed pad to VSS for optimal performance.
Can the R5F1037AANA#U0 support I²C communication?
Yes, the R5F1037AANA#U0 supports standard-mode I²C communication via dedicated pins P60 (SCLA0) and P61 (SDAA0). However, it does not support simplified I²C (IIC00/IIC01) - a feature reserved for R5F1027x variants. Designers must use the full I²C peripheral, not the simplified version, for slave or master operation.
