Product details
Overview
R5F10RJ8AFA#10 from Renesas is an 8 KB flash, 1 KB RAM, 52-pin LQFP (10 × 10 mm, 0.65 mm pitch) RL78/L12 microcontroller optimized for ultra-low-power LCD-based applications. It delivers 31 DMIPS at 24 MHz, operates from 1.6 V to 5.5 V, achieves 62.5 µA/MHz active current and 0.64 µA RTC+LVD halt mode, and integrates a full-featured LCD controller supporting up to 35 seg × 8 com.
For engineers reviewing the R5F10RJ8AFA#10 datasheet, R5F10RJ8AFA#10 pinout, R5F10RJ8AFA#10 application, or R5F10RJ8AFA#10 equivalent, this MCU is selected for battery-powered instrumentation, portable medical devices, and energy-metering front panels where integrated LCD drive, sub-µA real-time operation, and IEC 60730 safety features are mandatory.
Technical Context
The R5F10RJ8AFA#10 implements the 16-bit RL78 CPU core with Harvard architecture, 3-stage pipeline, and 86% of instructions executed in 1–2 clock cycles. It supports on-chip debug via 1-wire TOOL0 interface and includes a high-speed on-chip oscillator (24 MHz ±1% over voltage/temperature) plus low-speed subsystem clock (32.768 kHz).
Its integrated peripherals include a 10-channel 10-bit ADC (2.1 µs conversion), dual DMA channels, UART/I²C/CSI interfaces, 8-channel timer array with RTC calendar/alarm, and LCD controller with capacitor-split, internal-boost, and resistor-division waveform support - all operating within −40°C to +85°C ambient range.
