Product details
Overview
R5F111NJALA#W0 from Renesas is an RL78/L1C 85-pin VFLGA microcontroller without USB, featuring 192 KB flash, 8 KB data flash, 16 KB RAM, 12-bit A/D converter (2.4–3.6 V), and integrated LCD controller/driver supporting up to 52 segments and 8 commons. It operates from 1.6 V to 3.6 V and targets ultra-low-power LCD-based metering and control applications.
For engineers reviewing the R5F111NJALA#W0 datasheet, R5F111NJALA#W0 pinout, R5F111NJALA#W0 application, or R5F111NJALA#W0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its non-USB RL78/L1C variant status, VFLGA-85 package with 0.65 mm pitch, -40°C to +85°C consumer-grade temperature range, and absence of USB 2.0 function controller-distinguishing it from R5F110x-series parts.
Technical Context
The R5F111NJALA#W0 implements the RL78 CPU core with CISC architecture, 3-stage pipeline, and configurable instruction execution time (0.04167 μs at 24 MHz or 30.5 μs at 32.768 kHz). It integrates a 12-bit interval timer, RTC2 with calendar and alarm, and event link controller (ELC) for peripheral signal routing.
Its power management includes HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes, achieving as low as 112.5 μA/MHz active current and 0.68 μA in RTC2+LVD standby. The LCD controller supports internal voltage boosting, capacitor split, and external resistance division methods, with segment outputs mapped across P0–P7, P12–P15 ports.

FAQ
Does R5F111NJALA#W0 include a USB controller?
No, R5F111NJALA#W0 is explicitly a non-USB variant of the RL78/L1C family. Its part number prefix "111" denotes absence of USB functionality, unlike "110"-prefixed parts (e.g., R5F110NJALA#W0). The R5F111NJALA#W0 datasheet confirms no UDM, UDP, UREGC, or UVBUS pins are implemented.
What LCD segment and common count does R5F111NJALA#W0 support?
R5F111NJALA#W0 supports up to 52 segment outputs and 8 common outputs when configured for 8-common operation - as confirmed in Section 1.1 Features ("Segment signal output: 44 (40) to 56 (52)") and validated by its 85-pin VFLGA pinout allocating SEG0–SEG55 and COM0–COM7. This enables 416-segment (52 × 8) multiplexed displays.
Is R5F111NJALA#W0 pin-compatible with other RL78/L1C 85-pin variants?
Yes, R5F111NJALA#W0 shares identical 85-pin VFLGA mechanical footprint and pin assignment with all other RL78/L1C 85-pin parts (e.g., R5F111NHALA#W0, R5F111MGALA#W0), including matching power, ground, reset, oscillator, and peripheral signal locations - enabling drop-in replacement within the same memory/feature tier.
What is the maximum operating frequency and associated current consumption of R5F111NJALA#W0?
R5F111NJALA#W0 achieves 33 DMIPS at 24 MHz using the high-speed on-chip oscillator. Its active current is specified as 112.5 μA/MHz at VDD = 3.0 V and TA = 25°C, translating to ~2.7 mA typical at 24 MHz - verified in the "Ultra-low power consumption technology" section of the datasheet.
Does R5F111NJALA#W0 support background data flash rewriting?
Yes, R5F111NJALA#W0 supports Background Operation (BGO) for data flash - allowing CPU code execution from program memory while simultaneously rewriting the 8 KB data flash. This capability is documented in Section 1.1 under "Data flash memory" and enables seamless firmware parameter updates without halting system operation.
