Product details
Overview
R5F104GDGNA#20 from Renesas is a 48-pin HWQFN-packaged 16-bit RL78/G14 microcontroller with 128 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 10-bit ADC (16 ch), UART/SPI/I²C interfaces, RTC, and on-chip debug.
For engineers reviewing the R5F104GDGNA#20 datasheet, R5F104GDGNA#20 pinout, R5F104GDGNA#20 application, or R5F104GDGNA#20 equivalent, key selection criteria include industrial-temperature operation, 48-pin HWQFN footprint compatibility, integrated data flash rewrite capability (1M cycles), and support for real-time clock with calendar/alarm functions in resource-constrained embedded control designs.
Technical Context
The RL78/G14 core implements a 3-stage CISC pipeline with configurable instruction timing (0.03125 µs @32 MHz to 30.5 µs @32.768 kHz) and supports multiply/divide/accumulate instructions. Its memory subsystem includes separate code flash (128 KB, 1 KB blocks) and data flash (8 KB, background operation enabled) with security lock and self-programming via boot swap.
Peripheral integration centers on event-driven architecture: the Event Link Controller (ELC) routes 19–26 event signals to peripherals without CPU intervention, while the Data Transfer Controller (DTC) enables chain transfers triggered by interrupts. Analog subsystem includes 10-bit ADC with internal 1.45 V reference and temperature sensor, plus dual 8-bit DAC outputs.
