Product details
Overview
R5F1177AGNA#U0 from Renesas is an RL78/I1D 24-pin HWQFN ultra-low-power 16-bit MCU with 8 KB flash, 2 KB data flash, 0.7 KB RAM, 6-channel 8/12-bit ADC, 2 comparators, and 4 operational amplifiers - designed for industrial sensor nodes and battery-powered control systems operating from -40°C to +105°C.
For engineers reviewing the R5F1177AGNA#U0 datasheet, R5F1177AGNA#U0 pinout, R5F1177AGNA#U0 application, or R5F1177AGNA#U0 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, validated 24-pin HWQFN package mapping, confirmed peripheral integration (dual CSI, UART, dual I²C), real-time clock with calendar, and precise low-power mode timing (0.64 μA STOP mode).
Technical Context
The R5F1177AGNA#U0 implements the RL78 CPU core with CISC architecture, 3-stage pipeline, and configurable instruction execution time (0.04167 μs at 24 MHz high-speed on-chip oscillator or 66.6 μs at 15 kHz low-speed mode). It integrates a 20-source Data Transfer Controller (DTC) and Event Link Controller (ELC) supporting hardware-triggered peripheral chaining without CPU intervention.
Its analog subsystem includes two independent comparators with window mode, four rail-to-rail op-amps (AMP0–AMP3) with selectable gain configurations, and a 12-bit interval timer for precise timing-critical signal conditioning - all operating within the 1.6 V to 3.6 V supply range and qualified for industrial temperature (-40°C to +105°C).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F11778GNA#U0 | Same package and pinout; 8 KB flash but only 0.7 KB RAM (vs. R5F1177AGNA#U0's 0.7 KB RAM - identical RAM size per datasheet Table 1-3) | Identical peripheral set and low-power profile; differs only in flash configuration option (8 KB base vs. same 8 KB) | Select R5F11778GNA#U0 if flash library footprint or boot swap requirements align with factory-default 8 KB image layout |
| R5F117AAGSP#30 | 30-pin LSSOP package; 16 KB flash, 3 KB RAM, 12-channel ADC, dual CSI/I²C - higher memory and analog channel count | Requires PCB redesign due to 30-pin LSSOP vs. 24-pin HWQFN; suited for designs needing expanded I/O or larger firmware | Choose R5F117AAGSP#30 when additional RAM, ADC channels, or I/O pins are required and board space allows LSSOP footprint |
Compared with R5F11778GNA#U0, the R5F1177AGNA#U0 offers identical flash/RAM capacity and pin compatibility but may differ in factory-programmed option byte settings affecting oscillator startup; versus R5F117AAGSP#30, it trades package size and I/O count for compactness and thermal performance in space-constrained industrial modules.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the R5F1177AGNA#U0?
The R5F1177AGNA#U0 is rated for industrial operation from -40°C to +105°C. This rating applies to all functional modes including flash programming, where derating guidance (contacting Renesas sales) is advised above +85°C per datasheet Caution 3. The device maintains full specification compliance across this full range.
Does the R5F1177AGNA#U0 support background data flash rewriting?
Yes, the R5F1177AGNA#U0 supports background operation (BGO) for data flash rewriting: instructions can execute from program memory while data flash is being rewritten. Its 2 KB data flash is rated for 1,000,000 rewrite cycles at VDD = 1.8–3.6 V, enabling reliable nonvolatile parameter storage in field-upgradable devices.
How many serial interfaces does the R5F1177AGNA#U0 include?
The R5F1177AGNA#U0 includes two simplified SPI (CSI) channels, one UART channel, and two simplified I²C channels - all accessible via its 24-pin HWQFN package. These interfaces are configurable through the peripheral I/O redirection register (PIOR0), allowing flexible pin assignment without hardware changes.
What is the minimum supply voltage for the R5F1177AGNA#U0?
The R5F1177AGNA#U0 operates down to 1.6 V on both VDD and AVDD. At this voltage, the high-speed on-chip oscillator is limited to 4 MHz (LV mode), and the STOP mode current remains at 0.64 μA - making it suitable for single-cell lithium or primary battery applications with wide discharge curves.
Is the R5F1177AGNA#U0 pin-compatible with other RL78/I1D variants in HWQFN packages?
Yes, the R5F1177AGNA#U0 shares identical 24-pin HWQFN pinout and electrical characteristics with R5F11778GNA#U0. Both devices use the PWQN0024KE-A package and support the same peripheral mappings, enabling direct substitution where flash content and option byte configuration permit.
