Product details
Overview
R5F10Y46ASP#50 from Renesas Electronics is a 16-pin, 2 KB Flash, 256-byte RAM RL78/G10 16-bit microcontroller with ultra-low-power operation (46 µA/MHz), 2.0–5.5 V supply range, and integrated 20 MHz high-speed on-chip oscillator ±2% accuracy. It features 7-channel 10-bit ADC, 4-channel 16-bit timer array, UART, two CSI interfaces, I²C, and key interrupt support - deployed in battery-powered sensor nodes and smart home control modules.
For engineers reviewing the R5F10Y46ASP#50 datasheet, R5F10Y46ASP#50 pinout, R5F10Y46ASP#50 application, or R5F10Y46ASP#50 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, package-confirmed pin functions, real-world use cases, and two validated alternative parts for design continuity and sourcing flexibility.
Technical Context
The R5F10Y46ASP#50 implements the RL78-S1 core - a Harvard-architecture CISC with 3-stage pipeline, where 78% of instructions execute in 1–2 clock cycles. Its power management includes STOP mode (0.61 µA at 3.0 V) and HALT mode (360–900 µA), enabled by selectable power-on reset (SPOR) with four voltage thresholds and low-speed 15 kHz watchdog timer.
Peripherals are tightly coupled to the core via dedicated bus arbitration: SAU0 provides UART/CSI/I²C with independent clock domains; TAU0 delivers four 16-bit timer channels supporting PWM, input capture, and interval timing; and the 10-bit ADC achieves 3.4 µs conversion with internal 0.815 V reference - all operating across –40°C to +85°C ambient.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the R5F10Y46ASP#50?
The R5F10Y46ASP#50 supports a maximum high-speed on-chip oscillator frequency of 20 MHz with ±2% accuracy across –20°C to +85°C. When using an external crystal (X1/X2), it operates up to 20 MHz at VDD ≥ 2.7 V or up to 5 MHz at VDD ≥ 2.0 V. The minimum instruction execution time is 0.05 µs under these conditions, enabling real-time responsiveness in time-critical applications.
Does the R5F10Y46ASP#50 include an integrated comparator?
Yes, the R5F10Y46ASP#50 includes one integrated comparator (COMP) with dedicated input pins (IVCMP0), reference input (IVREF0), and open-drain output (VCOUT0). This comparator operates independently of the ADC and supports both high-speed and low-speed modes, drawing only 6.5 µA (high-speed) or 1.7 µA (low-speed) at VDD = 5.0 V - enabling precise threshold detection without external components.
What are the supported communication interfaces on the R5F10Y46ASP#50?
The R5F10Y46ASP#50 supports UART (7-/8-bit), two Simplified SPI (CSI) channels, one I²C interface (IICA0), and one simplified I²C (IIC00). All interfaces share the SAU0 peripheral unit and operate concurrently. Notably, the 16-pin package adds IICA0 (SCLA0/SDAA0) and second CSI (CSI01), unlike the 10-pin variant - enabling dual I²C buses or simultaneous sensor and display communication.
Can the R5F10Y46ASP#50 operate from a 2.0 V supply?
Yes, the R5F10Y46ASP#50 is fully specified for operation from 2.0 V to 5.5 V. At 2.0 V, the high-speed on-chip oscillator runs up to 5 MHz, and the external crystal oscillator supports up to 5 MHz. DC characteristics (e.g., IOL = 2.4 mA per pin, VOH = VDD – 0.5 V) and AC timing (e.g., TCY ≤ 0.8 µs) remain guaranteed - making it suitable for single-cell alkaline or lithium primary battery systems.
Is the R5F10Y46ASP#50 pin-compatible with other RL78/G10 variants?
Yes, the R5F10Y46ASP#50 is pin-compatible with all 16-pin RL78/G10 variants in SSOP package (e.g., R5F10Y44ASP#50, R5F10Y47ASP#50), sharing identical pin count, physical layout, and function mapping. Differences are limited to Flash/RAM size and optional features (e.g., 12-bit interval timer present only in R5F10Y47), allowing seamless migration within the same PCB footprint.
