Product details
Overview
R5F104MFAFB#30 from Renesas is a 80-pin LFQFP (0.5 mm pitch), 96 KB flash, 5.5 KB RAM RL78/G14 16-bit MCU with ultra-low-power operation (66 μA/MHz active, 0.60 μA RTC+LVD mode), 1.6–5.5 V supply, and integrated 10-bit ADC (16 channels), UART (4 ch), I²C (4 ch), and 16-bit timers (12 ch). It targets industrial sensor nodes and battery-powered control modules requiring long runtime and mixed-signal integration.
For engineers reviewing the R5F104MFAFB#30 datasheet, R5F104MFAFB#30 pinout, R5F104MFAFB#30 application, or R5F104MFAFB#30 equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping, validated peripheral configuration, confirmed low-power operating modes, and real-world substitution guidance for industrial embedded designs.
Technical Context
The R5F104MFAFB#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. Its memory subsystem integrates 96 KB on-chip code flash (1 KB block size), 4 KB data flash (1M rewrite cycles), and 5.5 KB RAM.
Peripheral integration includes a 12-channel 16-bit Timer Array Unit (TAU), real-time clock with calendar/alarm, 10-bit ADC with internal reference and temperature sensor, dual DTC for autonomous transfers, and ELC for event-driven peripheral linking-enabling deterministic low-latency response without CPU intervention.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the R5F104MFAFB#30?
The R5F104MFAFB#30 supports a maximum CPU clock frequency of 32 MHz using the high-speed on-chip oscillator, delivering 44 DMIPS performance. External crystal or clock sources can drive the system up to 48 MHz, but the device's rated specification remains 32 MHz for guaranteed timing compliance across temperature and voltage ranges. The R5F104MFAFB#30 achieves this with ±1.0% oscillator accuracy from 1.8–5.5 V and -40°C to +85°C.
Does the R5F104MFAFB#30 include an integrated DAC or comparator?
No, the R5F104MFAFB#30 does not integrate a DAC or comparator. Its analog peripherals consist solely of a 10-bit ADC with 16 input channels, internal 1.45 V reference voltage, and integrated temperature sensor. For applications requiring analog output or voltage comparison, external components must be added. This omission aligns with the R5F104MFAFB#30's positioning as a cost-optimized industrial control MCU where discrete analog functions are often handled off-chip.
What debug interface does the R5F104MFAFB#30 support?
The R5F104MFAFB#30 supports Renesas' standard on-chip debug interface via dedicated TOOL0, TOOLRxD, and TOOLTxD pins - compatible with E2 and E2 Lite debuggers. It does not require JTAG or SWD headers, simplifying PCB layout. Debug functionality includes full break/step execution, register and memory inspection, and flash programming. The R5F104MFAFB#30 implements this without external debug circuitry, leveraging its integrated debug ROM and dedicated debug pins mapped to P40/P50/P51.
Is the R5F104MFAFB#30 pin-compatible with other RL78/G14 80-pin variants?
Yes, the R5F104MFAFB#30 is fully pin-compatible with all other RL78/G14 80-pin LFQFP variants (e.g., R5F104MGAFB#30, R5F104MHAFB#30) sharing the same FB package suffix. Pin assignments, electrical characteristics, and peripheral mappings are identical across this package group. Firmware and hardware designs targeting the R5F104MFAFB#30 can be upgraded to higher-flash variants without PCB revision - only flash programming and linker script adjustments are required.
What is the data flash endurance and voltage range for rewriting the R5F104MFAFB#30?
The R5F104MFAFB#30 features 4 KB of on-chip data flash rated for 1,000,000 write/erase cycles (typical) across the full supply range of 1.8–5.5 V. Rewrites can occur during normal operation using background operation (BGO), allowing code execution from program flash while data flash is updated. This capability is essential for reliable parameter storage, calibration data logging, or firmware update staging in the R5F104MFAFB#30 without system interruption.
