Product details
Overview
R5F10RG8AFB#V0 from Renesas is an 8 KB flash, 1.5 KB RAM, 48-pin LFQFP microcontroller in the RL78/L12 family, featuring integrated LCD controller/driver (up to 35 seg × 8 com), 10-bit ADC (10 channels), real-time clock with calendar, and ultra-low-power operation (0.64 µA in RTC+LVD halt mode). It targets battery-powered LCD display systems such as smart meters, thermostats, and portable medical devices.
For engineers reviewing the R5F10RG8AFB#V0 datasheet, R5F10RG8AFB#V0 pinout, R5F10RG8AFB#V0 application, or R5F10RG8AFB#V0 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package-specific pin roles, low-power design implications, LCD drive configuration options, and validated alternative MCUs for cost, memory, or temperature-grade trade-offs.
Technical Context
The R5F10RG8AFB#V0 implements the 16-bit RL78 CPU core delivering 31 DMIPS at 24 MHz, with Harvard architecture, 3-stage pipeline, and single-cycle 16×16 multiply. Its on-chip voltage regulator supports 1.6 V to 5.5 V operation, enabling direct battery interface without external LDOs.
It integrates a dedicated LCD controller supporting capacitor split, internal boost, and resistance division methods - configurable for up to 35 segments and 8 commons - alongside dual CSI interfaces (SPI-compatible), one I²C, one UART, and 8-channel timer array with RTC and interval timer. Safety features include RAM parity, flash CRC, and illegal access detection per IEC/UL 60730.
