Product details
Overview
R5F104BFGNA#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 1.6–5.5 V at -40 to +105°C (industrial G-grade). It delivers 44 DMIPS at 32 MHz, features ultra-low-power HALT/STOP/SNOOZE modes (0.60 μA RTC+LVD), and integrates UART, I²C, CSI, 16-bit timers, 10-bit ADC (20 ch), and RTC with calendar.
For engineers reviewing the R5F104BFGNA#U0 datasheet, R5F104BFGNA#U0 pinout, R5F104BFGNA#U0 application, or R5F104BFGNA#U0 equivalent, key selection criteria include industrial-temperature operation, integrated data flash with 1M rewrite cycles, background operation (BGO), and hardware event linking via ELC for deterministic real-time control in resource-constrained embedded systems.
Technical Context
The R5F104BFGNA#U0 implements the RL78 CPU core with 3-stage pipeline, supporting instruction execution times from 0.03125 μs (32 MHz) to 30.5 μs (32.768 kHz), and includes multiply/divide/accumulate instructions. Its memory subsystem comprises 96 KB code flash (1 KB blocks), 8 KB data flash with BGO, and 12 KB SRAM.
Peripheral integration centers on low-power system control: Event Link Controller (ELC) enables direct peripheral-to-peripheral triggering without CPU intervention; Data Transfer Controller (DTC) supports block/repeat transfers activated by 19–26 event sources; and dual-voltage I/O (1.8/2.5/3.0 V interface capability) simplifies mixed-supply design.
