Product details
Overview
R5F104GCGFB#10 from Renesas is a 48-pin LFQFP-packaged 16-bit RL78/G14 microcontroller with 128 KB flash, 12 KB RAM, and industrial-grade operation up to +105°C. It delivers 44 DMIPS at 32 MHz, features ultra-low-power HALT/STOP/SNOOZE modes (66 μA/MHz active, 0.60 μA RTC+LVD), and integrates UART, I²C, SPI, 16-bit timers, 10-bit ADC (16 channels), and on-chip RTC with calendar support - deployed in smart metering and industrial sensor nodes.
For engineers reviewing the R5F104GCGFB#10 datasheet, R5F104GCGFB#10 pinout, R5F104GCGFB#10 application, or R5F104GCGFB#10 equivalent, key selection considerations include its G-grade temperature range (−40°C to +105°C), LFQFP-48 0.5 mm pitch package, 128 KB code flash with data flash shield window, and integrated event link controller (ELC) for deterministic peripheral triggering without CPU intervention.
Technical Context
The R5F104GCGFB#10 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). It includes multiply/divide/accumulate instructions and a 1 MB address space.
Its peripheral set is orchestrated via Event Link Controller (ELC) with 26 configurable event sources and Data Transfer Controller (DTC) supporting chain transfer, enabling autonomous low-latency data movement between memory and peripherals like ADC, UART, and timers - critical for deterministic real-time control loops.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the R5F104GCGFB#10?
The R5F104GCGFB#10 is rated for industrial operation from −40°C to +105°C (G-grade), validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108. This makes it suitable for under-hood automotive modules, outdoor utility meters, and factory-floor controllers where ambient temperatures exceed standard commercial limits. The device maintains full functionality and timing specifications across this full range.
Does the R5F104GCGFB#10 support in-system programming via standard interfaces?
Yes, the R5F104GCGFB#10 supports in-system programming using the on-chip debug interface via dedicated SWD pins (P137/INTP0, P121/X1, P122/X2, RESET). It enables full flash read/write/erase, data flash BGO operations, and secure boot swapping - all without removing the device from the target board. No external programmer hardware is required beyond a standard SWD debugger.
How many analog input channels does the R5F104GCGFB#10 support, and what is the reference voltage option?
The R5F104GCGFB#10 integrates a 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with 16 analog input channels (ANI0–ANI18, excluding reserved pins). It supports VDD as the reference voltage and includes an internal 1.45 V reference for ratiometric measurements independent of supply variation - critical for precision sensor signal conditioning in varying power conditions.
Can the R5F104GCGFB#10 operate from a single 1.8 V supply?
Yes, the R5F104GCGFB#10 operates across a 1.6 V to 5.5 V supply range, including stable execution at 1.8 V. At this voltage, maximum clock speed is reduced to 16 MHz (per datasheet Table 12.1), delivering 22 DMIPS while maintaining full peripheral functionality - ideal for energy-harvesting or coin-cell-powered designs where low-voltage operation is mandatory.
What packaging and compliance certifications apply to the R5F104GCGFB#10?
The R5F104GCGFB#10 is supplied in a 48-pin LFQFP (7 × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) package, compliant with JEDEC MO-220 and RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU.
