Product details
Overview
R5F211B2DSP#U0 from Renesas Electronics is a 16-bit single-chip microcontroller in the R8C/1B Group, featuring an R8C/Tiny Series CPU core, 8 KB flash program ROM, 1 KB × 2 data flash (2 KB total), 512 bytes RAM, and operation across -40°C to +85°C. It integrates 10-bit A/D conversion (4 channels), UART, I²C, clock-synchronous serial I/O, three timers (8-bit ×2, 16-bit ×1), and LED drive capability on four I/O pins - deployed in consumer appliance control and industrial sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the R5F211B2DSP#U0 datasheet, R5F211B2DSP#U0 pinout, R5F211B2DSP#U0 application, or R5F211B2DSP#U0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual data flash blocks for reliable parameter storage, 20-pin LSSOP package with mixed analog/digital I/O, low-power stop mode (0.7 µA), and integrated voltage detection and power-on reset circuits.
Technical Context
The R5F211B2DSP#U0 implements the R8C/Tiny CPU core with 89 fundamental instructions and executes at 50 ns minimum instruction time (20 MHz main clock, 3.0–5.5 V). Its memory architecture separates program ROM (8 KB) from dual-block data flash (1 KB × 2), enabling independent erase/write cycles for configuration data without disrupting firmware.
Peripheral integration includes a 10-bit A/D converter with four analog inputs (AN8–AN11), two UART channels (TXD0/RXD0 and TXD1/RXD1), I²C bus interface (SCL/SDA), SSU with chip select (SCS/SSCK/SSO), and timer resources supporting input capture (TCIN), output compare (CMP0/CMP1), and PWM generation (TZOUT).

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and supply voltage range for R5F211B2DSP#U0?
The R5F211B2DSP#U0 operates at up to 20 MHz with a supply voltage range of 3.0–5.5 V. At 10 MHz, it supports down to 2.7 V. Minimum instruction execution time is 50 ns under 20 MHz/3.0–5.5 V conditions. The device includes on-chip oscillation stop detection and voltage detection to ensure safe operation across this range.
Does R5F211B2DSP#U0 support in-system programming and how many data flash write cycles are guaranteed?
Yes, R5F211B2DSP#U0 supports in-system programming via on-chip debug interface. Its data flash is rated for 10,000 write/erase cycles per block (1 KB × 2), enabling reliable field updates of calibration data or configuration parameters without requiring full firmware reflash.
What serial communication interfaces does R5F211B2DSP#U0 integrate?
R5F211B2DSP#U0 integrates three serial interfaces: one UART (TXD0/RXD0), one UART/I²C shared channel (TXD1/RXD1/SCL/SDA), and one clock-synchronous serial I/O with chip select (SSI00/SSI01/SCS/SSCK/SSO). This enables concurrent communication with multiple peripherals such as sensors, displays, and host controllers.
How does the R5F211B2DSP#U0 handle reset and power management?
R5F211B2DSP#U0 features an active-low RESET pin, on-chip power-on reset circuit, and voltage detection circuit that triggers reset or interrupt on undervoltage. It supports three low-power modes: HALT (CPU stopped), WAIT (peripheral clocks off), and STOP (0.7 µA @ 3.0 V), with wake-up via external interrupt or timer.
Is R5F211B2DSP#U0 pin-compatible with other R8C/1B Group devices like R5F211B2DD or R5F211B2NP?
No - R5F211B2DSP#U0 uses the 20-pin LSSOP package (PLSP0020JB-A), while R5F211B2DD uses 20-pin SDIP (PRDP0020BA-A) and R5F211B2NP uses 28-pin HWQFN (PWQN0028KA-B). Pin counts, layouts, and mechanical footprints differ; firmware and register mapping are identical, but PCB layout is not interchangeable.
