Product details
Overview
R5F211A2DD#U0 from Renesas Electronics is a 16-bit single-chip microcontroller in the R8C/1A Group, featuring an R8C/Tiny Series CPU core, 8 KB flash program memory, 512 bytes RAM, and operation at up to 20 MHz (50 ns min instruction time). It integrates a 10-bit 4-channel ADC, three timers (8-bit ×2, 16-bit ×1), UART, clock-synchronous serial I/O, I²C bus interface, and LED drive capability. It targets cost-sensitive embedded control in consumer appliances and industrial sensors.
For engineers reviewing the R5F211A2DD#U0 datasheet, R5F211A2DD#U0 pinout, R5F211A2DD#U0 application, or R5F211A2DD#U0 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 20-pin SDIP package (PRDP0020BA-A), -40°C to +85°C operating range (D-grade), absence of on-chip data flash (distinguishing it from R8C/1B), and support for both external crystal and high-speed on-chip oscillator with frequency adjustment.
Technical Context
The R5F211A2DD#U0 implements the R8C/Tiny Series 16-bit CPU with 89 fundamental instructions and a 1 Mbyte linear address space. Its dual clock system includes a main crystal oscillator circuit (XIN/XOUT) and an adjustable high-speed on-chip oscillator, both supporting oscillation stop detection.
Peripheral integration centers on real-time control: Timer C provides input capture and output compare for motor timing; UART and I²C enable sensor and display communication; the 10-bit ADC supports analog signal acquisition from temperature or voltage sensors; and four dedicated LED drive ports simplify status indicator design.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the R5F211A2DD#U0?
The R5F211A2DD#U0 operates at up to 20 MHz when supplied with VCC ≥ 3.0 V, achieving a minimum instruction execution time of 50 ns. At 10 MHz, it supports down to 2.7 V supply. The high-speed on-chip oscillator can be adjusted in software to fine-tune timing without external components.
Does the R5F211A2DD#U0 include data flash memory?
No, the R5F211A2DD#U0 belongs to the R8C/1A Group and contains only 8 KB of program flash memory with 1,000 erase/write cycles. It does not include dedicated data flash - that feature is exclusive to the R8C/1B Group (e.g., R5F211B2DD#U0).
Which package type does the R5F211A2DD#U0 use?
The R5F211A2DD#U0 uses the PRDP0020BA-A package: a 20-pin plastic SDIP (Small Outline Dual In-line Package) with 300 mil body width and 2.54 mm lead pitch, optimized for through-hole mounting and manual rework.
What are the key low-power features of the R5F211A2DD#U0?
The R5F211A2DD#U0 supports wait mode (35 µA typical at 3.0 V) and stop mode (0.7 µA typical at 3.0 V), both with peripheral clocks disabled. Wake-up is supported via external interrupts (INT0–INT3), key-input interrupts (KI0–KI3), or timer events - enabling battery-powered operation for years.
Can the R5F211A2DD#U0 drive LEDs directly?
Yes, the R5F211A2DD#U0 provides four dedicated LED drive ports (P1_0 through P1_3) capable of sinking up to 20 mA per pin. This allows direct connection of common-anode LEDs without external driver transistors, reducing BOM count and board area.
