Product details
Overview
R5F1217AANA#40 from Renesas Electronics is a 24-pin HWQFN-packaged 16-bit RL78/G16 microcontroller with 16 KB code flash, 2 KB RAM, and integrated capacitive touch sensing (15-channel CTSU). It operates from 2.4–5.5 V, supports ultra-low-power STOP/HALT modes, and delivers 61-µA/MHz active current at 125°C - enabling battery-powered human-interface applications such as appliance control panels and smart home sensors.
For engineers reviewing the R5F1217AANA#40 datasheet, R5F1217AANA#40 pinout, R5F1217AANA#40 application, or R5F1217AANA#40 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 24-pin HWQFN (4 × 4 mm, 0.5-mm pitch) footprint, consumer-grade −40 to +85°C temperature range (A-suffix), 16 KB flash/2 KB RAM memory configuration, and native support for I²C, UART, CSI, and real-time clock with calendar function.
Technical Context
The R5F1217AANA#40 implements the RL78 CPU core with a 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, supporting instruction execution times from 0.0625 µs (16 MHz high-speed on-chip oscillator) to 30.5 µs (32.768 kHz subsystem clock). Its memory subsystem includes 16 KB code flash (1 KB block size), 1 KB data flash (512 B blocks, 1M rewrite cycles), and 2 KB SRAM.
Peripheral integration includes an 8/10-bit 11-channel ADC, dual comparators, 8× 16-bit timers, RTC2 with 99-year calendar and alarm, simplified SPI (CSI), up to 3 UART channels, simplified I²C, one full I²C interface, and a dedicated 15-channel capacitive touch sensing unit (CTSU) supporting self- and mutual-capacitance configurations.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F1217CGNA#40 | Same package and pinout; industrial-grade (−40 to +105°C), G-suffix; identical peripherals and memory | Required for extended-temperature industrial equipment where ambient exceeds +85°C | Select when operating environment exceeds consumer-grade thermal limits but no hardware redesign is desired |
| R5F1214AANA#40 | 16-pin HWQFN (3 × 3 mm); same A-grade temp, 16 KB flash, 2 KB RAM, but only 8 I/O pins and no TS13/TS14 touch channels | Suitable for space-constrained designs with ≤8 touch keys and minimal peripheral needs | Choose for lower-cost, smaller-footprint implementations where 15-channel CTSU and 24-pin I/O headroom are unnecessary |
Compared with R5F1217CGNA#40, the R5F1217AANA#40 trades extended temperature rating for lower cost and qualification scope; compared with R5F1214AANA#40, it adds 8 additional I/O pins, two extra touch channels (TS13/TS14), and enhanced timer/communication flexibility - justifying its use in feature-rich HMI designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the R5F1217AANA#40?
The R5F1217AANA#40 supports a maximum CPU operating frequency of 16 MHz using its high-speed on-chip oscillator. This yields a minimum instruction execution time of 0.0625 µs under those conditions. The oscillator offers selectable frequencies (1/2/4/8/16 MHz) with ±1.0% accuracy across the full VDD (2.4–5.5 V) and temperature (−20 to +85°C) range specified for the A-grade R5F1217AANA#40.
Does the R5F1217AANA#40 support in-system programming via its TOOL interface?
Yes, the R5F1217AANA#40 supports full in-system programming and debugging through its single-wire TOOL interface (pins P40, P01, P00). This interface enables flash programming, breakpoint setting, and real-time variable inspection without requiring external debug probes beyond a standard Renesas E2 or E2 Lite emulator. The R5F1217AANA#40 does not require boot ROM swapping for firmware updates.
How many capacitive touch channels does the R5F1217AANA#40 support, and what configurations are available?
The R5F1217AANA#40 integrates a 15-channel capacitive touch sensing unit (CTSU) supporting both self-capacitance (up to 15 independent keys) and mutual-capacitance (matrix configuration supporting up to 16 keys) modes. Pin assignments include dedicated TSCAP (P02), TS00–TS14 (P01, P03–P07, P16–P17, P20–P23, P41–P43), enabling flexible electrode layout without external components.
What is the data flash endurance specification for the R5F1217AANA#40?
The R5F1217AANA#40 specifies 1,000,000 write/erase cycles (typical) for its 1 KB data flash memory across the full operating voltage range of 2.4–5.5 V. Each rewrite unit is 32 bits, and blocks are 512 bytes. Background operation (BGO) is not supported - code execution halts during data flash writes, requiring careful scheduling in real-time applications.
Can the R5F1217AANA#40 operate from a 3.3 V supply while maintaining full peripheral functionality?
Yes, the R5F1217AANA#40 operates fully across 2.4–5.5 V, including standard 3.3 V systems. All peripherals - including the 8/10-bit ADC (with internal 0.815 V reference), comparators, CTSU, UART, CSI, I²C, timers, and RTC2 - are guaranteed functional at 3.3 V. The high-speed oscillator maintains ±1.0% accuracy at 3.3 V within the −20 to +85°C range specified for the A-grade R5F1217AANA#40.
