Product details
Overview
R5F104LFAFB#X0 from Renesas is a 64-pin LFQFP (10 × 10 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), industrial-grade RL78/G14 16-bit microcontroller with 512 KB flash, 48 KB RAM, and 8 KB data flash. It operates from 1.6–5.5 V, delivers 44 DMIPS at 32 MHz, and achieves ultra-low power consumption (66 μA/MHz active, 0.60 μA in RTC+LVD mode), targeting battery-powered industrial control and sensor nodes.
For engineers reviewing the R5F104LFAFB#X0 datasheet, R5F104LFAFB#X0 pinout, R5F104LFAFB#X0 application, or R5F104LFAFB#X0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated real-time clock with calendar, 20-channel 10-bit ADC, dual UART/LIN support, and hardware DTC/ELC for deterministic low-power peripheral coordination.
Technical Context
The R5F104LFAFB#X0 implements the RL78 CPU core with a 3-stage pipeline, supporting instruction execution times from 0.03125 μs (32 MHz) to 30.5 μs (32.768 kHz). Its on-chip high-accuracy oscillator offers ±1.0% stability across –40°C to +105°C, eliminating external crystal requirements for many timing-critical applications.
It integrates a Data Transfer Controller (DTC) with chain transfer capability and an Event Link Controller (ELC) enabling direct hardware-triggered peripheral activation without CPU intervention-critical for deterministic response in motor control and industrial I/O systems.

The R5F104LFAFB#X0 operates at up to 32 MHz with its on-chip high-speed oscillator, delivering 44 DMIPS of computational throughput. This performance level supports real-time control algorithms, multi-sensor data fusion, and protocol stack execution while maintaining sub-100 μA/MHz power efficiency. The core's 3-stage pipeline and built-in multiply/divide instructions further accelerate math-intensive tasks in the R5F104LFAFB#X0.
Does the R5F104LFAFB#X0 support in-system programming and secure firmware updates?
Yes, the R5F104LFAFB#X0 supports full in-system programming via its on-chip debug interface and includes self-programming capabilities for both code and data flash. It features boot swap functionality and flash shield window protection to prevent unauthorized access during firmware updates. These capabilities allow field upgrades and secure bootloader implementation without requiring external programming hardware for the R5F104LFAFB#X0.
How does the R5F104LFAFB#X0 handle low-power operation in battery-powered applications?
The R5F104LFAFB#X0 achieves 0.60 μA in STOP mode with only RTC and LVD active, and 66 μA/MHz in active mode-enabling multi-year operation on coin cells or AA batteries. Its SNOOZE mode permits background data flash writes while retaining low-power state, and the 14-level LVD ensures robust brown-out detection across varying battery discharge curves-all critical for reliable long-life deployment of the R5F104LFAFB#X0.
What communication interfaces are integrated into the R5F104LFAFB#X0?
The R5F104LFAFB#X0 integrates four UART channels (with LIN support), up to ten I²C/simplified I²C channels, and three to eight CSI (SPI-compatible) channels. It also supports simplified I²C with clock stretching and multi-master arbitration. These interfaces enable concurrent connectivity to displays, sensors, power management ICs, and automotive LIN networks-making the R5F104LFAFB#X0 suitable for complex multi-peripheral systems.
Is the R5F104LFAFB#X0 pin-compatible with other RL78/G14 variants in the same package?
Yes, all RL78/G14 devices in the 64-pin LFQFP (FB) package-including R5F104LFAFB#X0, R5F104LGAFB#X0, and R5F104LJAFB#X0-share identical pinouts and electrical characteristics. This allows direct substitution within the same footprint for memory- or feature-scaling without PCB revision, provided software accommodates differences in flash size, RAM allocation, and peripheral enablement for the specific R5F104LFAFB#X0 variant.
