Product details
Overview
R5F1211CMSP#10 from Renesas Electronics is a 10-pin, 32 KB flash RL78/G16 microcontroller optimized for ultra-low-power industrial HMI and sensor-edge applications. It features a 16 MHz RL78 CPU core, 2 KB on-chip RAM, 1 KB data flash, 15-channel capacitive touch sensing unit (CTSU), 8/10-bit ADC with up to 4 analog inputs, and operates across −40°C to +125°C for M-grade industrial reliability.
For engineers reviewing the R5F1211CMSP#10 datasheet, R5F1211CMSP#10 pinout, R5F1211CMSP#10 application, or R5F1211CMSP#10 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 10-pin LSSOP package, integrated CTSU for touch-button interfaces, real-time clock with calendar function, and support for UART/SPI/I²C serial communication in space-constrained embedded designs.
Technical Context
The R5F1211CMSP#10 implements the RL78 CPU core with a 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, enabling configurable instruction execution times from 0.0625 μs (16 MHz high-speed mode) to 30.5 μs (32.768 kHz ultra-low-speed mode). Its memory subsystem includes 32 KB code flash (1 KB block size), 1 KB data flash (512 B blocks, 1M rewrite cycles), and 2 KB SRAM - all accessible under single 2.4–5.5 V supply operation.
Peripheral integration centers on low-power system control: 16-bit timer array (8 channels), watchdog timer with dedicated low-speed oscillator, RTC2 with 99-year calendar and alarm, 1–2 comparators with selectable reference sources, and a self-capacitance/mutual-capacitance CTSU supporting up to 15 keys or 16-key matrix configurations - all managed via hardware-accelerated firmware routines.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and instruction timing of the R5F1211CMSP#10?
The R5F1211CMSP#10 features an RL78 CPU core with configurable high-speed operation up to 16 MHz, delivering a minimum instruction execution time of 0.0625 μs. It also supports ultra-low-speed operation at 32.768 kHz (30.5 μs per instruction) using the subsystem clock - enabling dynamic power/performance scaling within a single R5F1211CMSP#10 device.
Does the R5F1211CMSP#10 support background data flash rewriting while executing code from main flash?
No, the R5F1211CMSP#10 does not support background operation (BGO) for data flash. During data flash rewriting, instruction execution from code flash memory is halted. This behavior is explicitly documented in the R5F1211CMSP#10 datasheet and requires firmware coordination to suspend critical tasks during write cycles.
How many capacitive touch channels does the R5F1211CMSP#10 support, and what configuration methods are available?
The R5F1211CMSP#10 integrates a dedicated Capacitive Touch Sensing Unit (CTSU) supporting up to 15 self-capacitance keys (one per pin) or up to 16 mutual-capacitance keys using matrix configuration across its 15 available CTSU-capable pins. Both modes operate with hardware acceleration and require no CPU intervention during sensing - a core capability of the R5F1211CMSP#10.
What are the oscillator options and accuracy specifications for the R5F1211CMSP#10?
The R5F1211CMSP#10 includes a high-speed on-chip oscillator with selectable frequencies of 16/8/4/2/1 MHz. At VDD = 2.4–5.5 V and TA = −20°C to +85°C, frequency accuracy is ±1.0%. For its M-grade rating (−40°C to +125°C), accuracy degrades to ±1.5% at +85°C to +125°C - fully specified in the R5F1211CMSP#10 datasheet and validated for industrial use.
Is the R5F1211CMSP#10 pin-compatible with other RL78/G16 variants such as the R5F1214C or R5F1216C?
No, the R5F1211CMSP#10 is not pin-compatible with higher-pin-count RL78/G16 variants like the R5F1214C (16-pin) or R5F1216C (20-pin). Its 10-pin LSSOP package has a unique pinout defined in Figure 1-1 and Table 1-2 of the R5F1211CMSP#10 datasheet. Migration to larger packages requires PCB redesign and signal remapping - confirmed by Renesas' official RL78/G16 package comparison documentation.
