Overview
R5F104BEGNA#U0 from Renesas is a 32-pin HWQFN-packaged RL78/G14 16-bit microcontroller with 96 KB flash, 12 KB RAM, and 8 KB data flash, operating from 1.6 V to 5.5 V at up to 32 MHz (44 DMIPS), featuring ultra-low-power HALT/STOP/SNOOZE modes (0.60 μA RTC+LVD), integrated 10-bit ADC (20 channels), and dual UART/SPI/I²C interfaces - deployed in industrial sensor nodes and battery-powered control modules.
For engineers reviewing the R5F104BEGNA#U0 datasheet, R5F104BEGNA#U0 pinout, R5F104BEGNA#U0 application, or R5F104BEGNA#U0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its G-grade industrial temperature range (−40°C to +105°C), 32-pin 5×5 mm HWQFN package with exposed die pad, on-chip RTC with calendar/alarm, and support for background data flash rewriting (1M cycles) without halting CPU execution.
Technical Context
The R5F104BEGNA#U0 implements the RL78 CPU core with 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, supporting instruction execution times from 0.03125 μs (32 MHz high-speed mode) to 30.5 μs (32.768 kHz ultra-low-speed mode), and includes multiply/divide/accumulate instructions with 1 MB address space and four register banks.
It integrates a configurable Event Link Controller (ELC) linking up to 26 event sources to peripherals, a Data Transfer Controller (DTC) with chain transfer capability, and a 12-bit interval timer plus real-time clock with 99-year calendar, alarm, and clock correction - enabling deterministic low-latency peripheral coordination without CPU intervention.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and associated DMIPS rating for the R5F104BEGNA#U0?
The R5F104BEGNA#U0 operates at up to 32 MHz with a measured performance of 44 DMIPS. This rating reflects integer instruction throughput under typical conditions using the RL78 CPU core's 3-stage pipeline and optimized compiler toolchain. The on-chip high-speed oscillator supports this frequency with ±1.0% accuracy across −40°C to +105°C, eliminating need for external crystals in many timing-tolerant applications. R5F104BEGNA#U0 achieves this while maintaining 66 μA/MHz active current consumption.
Does the R5F104BEGNA#U0 support background data flash rewriting, and what is the endurance specification?
Yes, the R5F104BEGNA#U0 supports Background Operation (BGO) for data flash rewriting, allowing CPU code execution from program memory while data flash is being programmed or erased. The data flash endurance is rated at 1,000,000 write/erase cycles (typical), with operation supported across the full VDD range of 1.8 V to 5.5 V. This enables robust field firmware updates and nonvolatile data logging without system interruption. R5F104BEGNA#U0 implements this using dedicated flash control logic and interrupt notification upon completion.
What industrial temperature grade does the R5F104BEGNA#U0 carry, and how is it indicated in the part number?
The R5F104BEGNA#U0 carries the 'G' grade, specifying an operating ambient temperature range of −40°C to +105°C for industrial applications. This is encoded in the fifth character of the part number: R5F104BEGNA#U0 - where 'G' denotes the extended industrial temperature qualification. The device undergoes screening and characterization across this full range for parameters including flash retention, ADC linearity, oscillator stability, and I/O drive strength. R5F104BEGNA#U0 is not rated for automotive AEC-Q100 qualification.
How many analog-to-digital converter (ADC) channels and what resolution does the R5F104BEGNA#U0 provide?
The R5F104BEGNA#U0 integrates a 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with up to 20 input channels (ANI0–ANI19), supporting single-ended and differential measurements. It includes an internal 1.45 V reference voltage and an on-die temperature sensor. Conversion time is programmable down to 1.0 μs per sample, and the ADC supports hardware triggers from timers or ELC events for synchronized sampling. R5F104BEGNA#U0 also provides two independent 8-bit DAC channels (ANO0/ANO1) for analog output generation.
What package type and pin count does the R5F104BEGNA#U0 use, and what are its key mechanical features?
The R5F104BEGNA#U0 uses a 32-pin HWQFN (Heat Sink Quad Flat No-lead) package measuring 5 mm × 5 mm with 0.5 mm pitch and an exposed die pad. The 'NA' in the part number explicitly denotes the HWQFN variant, and '#U0' specifies tray packaging. The exposed pad must be connected to VSS for thermal and electrical stability, and a 0.47–1 μF capacitor is required between REGC and VSS. R5F104BEGNA#U0's compact footprint and thermal performance suit space-constrained industrial control boards.
