Product details
Overview
R5F104JFAFA#V0 from Renesas is a 52-pin LQFP-0.65 mm pitch, industrial-grade (G) RL78/G14 16-bit MCU with 256 KB flash, 8 KB data flash, 20 KB RAM, and operation up to 32 MHz delivering 44 DMIPS. It integrates RTC, 10-bit ADC (16 channels), UART/LIN, I²C, SPI, 16-bit timers, and ultra-low-power modes (0.60 μA in STOP with RTC+LVD).
For engineers reviewing the R5F104JFAFA#V0 datasheet, R5F104JFAFA#V0 pinout, R5F104JFAFA#V0 application, or R5F104JFAFA#V0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its -40°C to +105°C industrial temperature rating, integrated LIN-capable UARTs for automotive body electronics, hardware DTC/ELC for deterministic peripheral chaining, and flash self-programming with boot swapping.
Technical Context
The R5F104JFAFA#V0 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 features on-chip high-accuracy ±1.0% oscillator (1–64 MHz selectable) and dedicated low-speed oscillator for watchdog timer.
Peripheral integration includes Event Link Controller (ELC) enabling direct hardware-triggered peripheral activation without CPU intervention, and Data Transfer Controller (DTC) supporting block, repeat, and chain transfers-critical for real-time sensor data acquisition and motor control loop timing determinism.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the R5F104JFAFA#V0?
The R5F104JFAFA#V0 is rated for industrial applications with an operating ambient temperature range of -40°C to +105°C (G-grade). This specification is validated per Renesas' qualification standards and applies across full voltage (1.6–5.5 V) and frequency (up to 32 MHz) operation-making it suitable for under-hood automotive and factory-floor industrial use cases where thermal resilience is critical. The R5F104JFAFA#V0 maintains all specified timing, analog accuracy, and flash endurance parameters within this range.
Does the R5F104JFAFA#V0 support LIN bus communication?
Yes, the R5F104JFAFA#V0 supports LIN 2.2 communication through its integrated UART modules. Each UART channel can be configured for LIN operation-including automatic sync-break detection, checksum generation (classic and enhanced), and slave node response handling-without external transceivers. The R5F104JFAFA#V0's hardware LIN support reduces firmware complexity and improves timing determinism compared to bit-banged implementations, and is validated in Renesas' RL78/G14 LIN software libraries.
How much data flash memory does the R5F104JFAFA#V0 include, and what is its endurance?
The R5F104JFAFA#V0 includes 8 KB of on-chip data flash memory with a typical endurance of 1,000,000 write/erase cycles at VDD = 1.8–5.5 V. This data flash supports background operation (BGO), allowing program execution from code flash while rewriting data flash-enabling seamless firmware parameter updates or data logging without system interruption. The R5F104JFAFA#V0 also provides flash shield window protection to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive configuration data.
What debug interfaces are supported by the R5F104JFAFA#V0?
The R5F104JFAFA#V0 supports on-chip debugging via the single-wire debug interface using the TOOL0 (pin P40) and TRJIO0 (pin P01/P17/P31) signals, compatible with Renesas E2 emulator and CS+ IDE. It includes full breakpoint, watchpoint, and trace capabilities, plus flash programming and verification functions. The R5F104JFAFA#V0 does not support JTAG; its debug architecture is optimized for minimal pin count and low-cost production programming-making it ideal for space-constrained industrial and consumer designs.
Can the R5F104JFAFA#V0 operate from a single 1.8 V supply?
Yes, the R5F104JFAFA#V0 operates from a single supply voltage ranging from 1.6 V to 5.5 V, fully supporting 1.8 V operation across all specified peripherals, clock speeds (up to 16 MHz at 1.8 V), and temperature ranges. At 1.8 V, the R5F104JFAFA#V0 maintains full functionality of its 10-bit ADC (with internal 1.45 V reference), RTC, UART, I²C, and timers-enabling compatibility with 1.8 V logic families and energy-harvesting power sources without level-shifting circuitry.
