Product details
Overview
R5F104LEAFA#30 from Renesas is a 64-pin LQFP-0.65 mm pitch, 48 KB flash, 5.5 KB RAM RL78/G14 16-bit microcontroller operating from 1.6 V to 5.5 V, delivering 44 DMIPS at 32 MHz with ultra-low-power HALT/STOP/SNOOZE modes (66 μA/MHz active, 0.60 μA RTC+LVD), used in industrial sensor nodes and battery-powered control modules.
For engineers reviewing the R5F104LEAFA#30 datasheet, R5F104LEAFA#30 pinout, R5F104LEAFA#30 application, or R5F104LEAFA#30 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 64-pin LQFP-0.65 mm package, 48 KB code flash + 4 KB data flash, 10-bit 20-channel ADC, dual UART/LIN support, and -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature grade (A-field).
Technical Context
The R5F104LEAFA#30 implements the RL78 CPU core with 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, supporting instruction execution times from 0.03125 µs (32 MHz) to 30.5 µs (32.768 kHz), and includes multiply/divide/accumulate instructions within a 1 MB address space. It integrates a 12-bit interval timer, real-time clock with calendar/alarm, and watchdog timer driven by dedicated low-speed oscillator.
Peripheral integration includes 8–12 channels of 16-bit timers (TAU, RJ, RD, RG), up to 10-channel I²C/simplified I²C, 3–4 UART/LIN interfaces, 3–8 CSI/SPI channels, and event-link controller (ELC) enabling hardware-triggered peripheral chaining without CPU intervention.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F104LEAFB#30 | Same core, flash, RAM; LFQFP-0.5 mm (7×7 mm) package instead of LQFP-0.65 mm (12×12 mm) | Requires PCB redesign due to smaller footprint and finer pitch; better for space-constrained designs | Select when board area is critical and re-layout is acceptable; identical firmware compatibility |
| R5F104LGAFP#V0 | 256 KB flash, 24 KB RAM, same 64-pin LQFP-0.8 mm package; higher memory and temp grade (-40°C to +105°C, G-field) | Targeted for extended-temp industrial automation where firmware growth or ambient extremes exceed A-field limits | Choose when future firmware expansion or harsher environments are anticipated; pin-compatible but larger footprint |
Compared with R5F104LEAFA#30, R5F104LEAFB#30 offers identical functionality in a denser package requiring layout change, while R5F104LGAFP#V0 provides scalable memory and extended temperature range in a mechanically distinct LQFP-0.8 mm variant - neither is drop-in compatible, but both share the RL78/G14 toolchain and peripheral register map.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and corresponding performance of the R5F104LEAFA#30?
The R5F104LEAFA#30 achieves a maximum operating frequency of 32 MHz using the high-speed on-chip oscillator, delivering 44 DMIPS of processing performance. Its minimum instruction execution time is 0.03125 µs at this speed, and it supports dynamic clock scaling down to 32.768 kHz for ultra-low-power RTC operation with 30.5 µs instruction time. This flexibility enables precise trade-offs between throughput and energy consumption in real-time control loops.
Does the R5F104LEAFA#30 support LIN bus communication, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the R5F104LEAFA#30 supports LIN bus communication through its UART peripherals - specifically UART0, UART1, and UART2 - all of which include built-in LIN-break detection and sync-byte handling per LIN 2.x specifications. The UART modules can operate in LIN master or slave mode, and the Event Link Controller (ELC) allows automatic frame transmission triggered by timer or ADC events without CPU involvement.
What are the flash memory configuration and programming capabilities of the R5F104LEAFA#30?
The R5F104LEAFA#30 contains 48 KB of code flash memory organized in 1 KB blocks and 4 KB of data flash memory. It supports self-programming with boot swapping, flash shield window protection, and block erase prohibition for security. Data flash supports background operation (BGO), allowing code execution from program memory while rewriting - essential for over-the-air updates and nonvolatile parameter storage with 1,000,000 write cycles rated.
How does the R5F104LEAFA#30 manage power in battery-operated systems?
The R5F104LEAFA#30 employs multiple low-power states: HALT mode draws 66 μA/MHz, STOP mode consumes just 0.60 μA while maintaining RTC and LVD operation, and SNOOZE mode enables selective peripheral activation before full wake-up. Its 1.6 V to 5.5 V operating range supports direct alkaline or Li-ion battery input, and the on-chip voltage detector (LVD) provides 14 selectable reset/interrupt thresholds for brown-out protection without external components.
Is the R5F104LEAFA#30 pin-compatible with other RL78/G14 variants, and what package options exist?
The R5F104LEAFA#30 uses a 64-pin LQFP package with 0.65 mm pitch (PLQP0064JA-A). It is not pin-compatible with RL78/G14 variants in LFQFP-0.5 mm or LQFP-0.8 mm packages - e.g., R5F104LEAFB#30 (LFQFP) and R5F104LGAFP#V0 (LQFP-0.8 mm) have different pinouts and mechanical dimensions. However, all RL78/G14 devices share identical peripheral register mapping and software compatibility within the same memory/peripheral configuration group.
