Product details
Overview
R5F10RLAAFB#50 from Renesas is a 64-pin LFQFP-packaged 16-bit RL78/L12 microcontroller with integrated LCD controller/driver, 16 KB flash, 2 KB data flash, and 1 KB RAM. It operates from 1.6 V to 5.5 V, delivers 31 DMIPS at 24 MHz, and achieves ultra-low power consumption (62.5 µA/MHz active, 0.64 µA in RTC+LVD halt mode), targeting battery-powered LCD display applications such as smart meters and portable medical devices.
For engineers reviewing the R5F10RLAAFB#50 datasheet, R5F10RLAAFB#50 pinout, R5F10RLAAFB#50 application, or R5F10RLAAFB#50 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, exact pin functions for 64-pin LFQFP, low-power design trade-offs, LCD segment/com configuration limits (39 seg × 4 com or 35 seg × 8 com), and validated alternative parts for consumer-grade LCD MCU migration.
Technical Context
The R5F10RLAAFB#50 implements the RL78 CPU core with Harvard architecture, 3-stage pipeline, and CISC instruction set enabling 86% of instructions in 1–2 clock cycles. It integrates a high-speed on-chip oscillator (24 MHz ±1% over voltage/temperature) and supports external crystal inputs (X1/X2, XT1/XT2) for main and subsystem clocks.
Its dedicated LCD controller supports three drive methods (capacitor split, internal boost, resistance division), 16-step contrast control, blinking, and waveform A/B selection. Real-time clock (RTC) includes full calendar, alarm, and watch correction functions, while safety features include flash CRC, RAM parity, SFR write protection, and illegal memory access detection per IEC/UL 60730.

|---|---|---|---|
| R5F10RLCAFB#50 | 32 KB flash (vs. 16 KB), same 64-pin LFQFP package, identical peripherals and power specs | Required when firmware exceeds 16 KB or future-proofing for feature expansion is needed | Select R5F10RLCAFB#50 if code size growth is anticipated; pinout and layout are identical |
| R5F10RGAAFB#50 | 48-pin LFQFP (7×7 mm), 16 KB flash, same core/peripherals but reduced I/O (44 pins vs. 58) and LCD capacity (35 seg × 4 com) | Suitable for space-constrained designs where full 64-pin I/O and 39-segment LCD are unnecessary | Choose R5F10RGAAFB#50 for smaller PCB footprint and lower cost when segment count ≤35 and I/O ≤44 suffice |
Compared with R5F10RLAAFB#50, R5F10RLCAFB#50 offers double flash capacity without layout changes, while R5F10RGAAFB#50 trades 16 pins and 4 LCD segments for 30% smaller package area-enabling compact designs where full 64-pin resources are unused.

FAQ
What is the maximum LCD segment count supported by the R5F10RLAAFB#50?
The R5F10RLAAFB#50 supports up to 39 segment outputs and 8 common outputs, enabling configurations of 39 segments × 4 commons or 35 segments × 8 commons. This matches the physical pin count and internal LCD controller capability documented in the R01DS0157EJ0223 datasheet Section 1.6.
Does the R5F10RLAAFB#50 require an external crystal for operation?
No-the R5F10RLAAFB#50 includes a high-speed on-chip oscillator rated at 24 MHz ±1% over voltage (1.8–5.5 V) and temperature (−20°C to 85°C), eliminating the need for external crystals in most applications. External crystals (X1/X2, XT1/XT2) remain optional for higher precision or subsystem clocking.
What is the operating temperature range for the R5F10RLAAFB#50?
The R5F10RLAAFB#50 is specified for consumer applications with an ambient operating temperature range of −40°C to +85°C, as indicated by the 'A' suffix in the part number per Figure 1-1 of the datasheet. Industrial-grade variants (e.g., R5F10RLAGFB#50) extend to +105°C.
How much current does the R5F10RLAAFB#50 draw in RTC-only operation?
In halt mode with only the real-time clock (RTC) and low-voltage detector (LVD) active, the R5F10RLAAFB#50 draws 0.64 µA, as confirmed in Section 1.1 "Ultra-Low Power Technology" of the R01DS0157EJ0223 datasheet. This enables decade-long battery life in always-on display applications.
Is the R5F10RLAAFB#50 pin-compatible with other RL78/L12 64-pin variants?
Yes-the R5F10RLAAFB#50 shares identical 64-pin LFQFP pinout and electrical characteristics with all other RL78/L12 64-pin members (e.g., R5F10RLCAFB#50, R5F10RLAGFB#50), differing only in flash size, temperature grade, or packaging specification. No PCB redesign is required when migrating between these variants.
