Product details
Overview
R5F104LJALA#U0 from Renesas is a 64-pin FLGA-packaged 16-bit RL78/G14 microcontroller with 192 KB flash, 8 KB data flash, 20 KB RAM, and operation from 1.6 V to 5.5 V. It delivers 44 DMIPS at 32 MHz, features ultra-low-power HALT/STOP/SNOOZE modes (0.60 μA RTC+LVD), and integrates 12-bit RTC, 10-bit ADC (20 ch), UART/LIN, I²C, CSI, and 16-bit timers for embedded control in industrial sensor nodes and battery-powered HMI.
For engineers reviewing the R5F104LJALA#U0 datasheet, R5F104LJALA#U0 pinout, R5F104LJALA#U0 application, or R5F104LJALA#U0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 64-pin 5×5 mm FLGA package, -40°C to +105°C industrial-grade temperature range (G-grade), integrated data flash with 1M rewrite cycles, and hardware event linking via ELC for deterministic peripheral coordination.
Technical Context
The R5F104LJALA#U0 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). Its Event Link Controller (ELC) enables direct hardware-triggered peripheral activation without CPU intervention, reducing latency and power consumption in real-time control loops.
It integrates a Data Transfer Controller (DTC) supporting normal, repeat, and block transfer modes activated by 19–26 interrupt sources, plus background operation (BGO) for concurrent code execution during data flash rewriting - critical for firmware-over-the-air updates in field-deployed devices.
