Product details
Overview
R5F21244SNFP#X6 from Renesas Electronics is a 16-bit single-chip microcontroller in the R8C/24 Group, featuring an R8C/Tiny Series CPU core, 16 KB flash program memory, 1 KB RAM, and operation at up to 20 MHz (50 ns min instruction time). It integrates a 10-bit 12-channel ADC, dual UARTs, I²C interface, hardware LIN module, four 8-/16-bit timers, and real-time clock functionality - deployed in consumer appliance control systems requiring compact, low-power embedded processing.
For engineers reviewing the R5F21244SNFP#X6 datasheet, R5F21244SNFP#X6 pinout, R5F21244SNFP#X6 application, or R5F21244SNFP#X6 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 52-pin LQFP package (PLQP0052JA-A), -20°C to +85°C operating range (N version), absence of on-chip data flash (distinguishing it from R8C/25 Group), and support for LIN bus communication via dedicated hardware.
Technical Context
The R5F21244SNFP#X6 implements the R8C/Tiny CPU core with 89 fundamental instructions and a 1 Mbyte address space. Its peripheral set includes Timer RA/RB (8-bit × 2), Timer RD (16-bit × 2 with input capture/output compare), and Timer RE with real-time clock and compare match - all synchronized to three independent clock sources: XIN (up to 20 MHz), high-speed on-chip oscillator (frequency-adjustable), and XCIN (32 kHz).
It supports mixed-signal operation with AVCC/AVSS power domains, VREF-referenced 10-bit A/D conversion across 12 analog inputs, and programmable I/O direction per pin. The MCU operates in single-chip mode with on-chip power-on reset, voltage detection, and oscillation stop detection - enabling robust operation in cost-sensitive, non-automotive embedded applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CPU Core | R8C/Tiny 16-bit architecture with 89 instructions and 1 Mbyte address space - enables efficient C-language execution and deterministic real-time response. |
| Memory | 16 KB flash program ROM + 1 KB RAM - sufficient for mid-complexity firmware in home appliances and office equipment without external memory. |
| Operating Speed | 20 MHz max (50 ns min instruction time at VCC = 3.0–5.5 V) - balances performance and power efficiency for battery-backed or AC-powered consumer devices. |
| Analog Interface | 10-bit A/D converter with 12 input channels and dedicated VREF pin - supports precise sensor monitoring (e.g., temperature, light, motor current) without external reference. |
| Serial Peripherals | 2 UART channels (UART0/UART1), 1 I²C interface, 1 clock-synchronous serial I/O with chip select, and hardware LIN (via Timer RA + UART0) - enables multi-protocol communication with displays, sensors, and automotive-grade modules. |
| Timers | Timer RA/RB (8-bit × 2), Timer RD (16-bit × 2 with input capture/output compare), Timer RE (real-time clock + compare match) - provides flexible timing, PWM generation, pulse measurement, and calendar-based wake-up. |
| Supply & Temp | VCC = 2.2–5.5 V; operating ambient: -20°C to +85°C (N version) - suitable for indoor consumer electronics without extended industrial or automotive thermal requirements. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 52-pin molded-plastic LQFP (PLQP0052JA-A), 10 mm × 10 mm body, 0.65 mm pin pitch. Pinout conforms to Figure 1.4 in REJ03B0117-0300 Rev.3.00.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC / AVCC | Power supply / Analog reference | Main digital supply (2.2–5.5 V); AVCC powers A/D converter - requires separate decoupling from VCC to minimize noise coupling into analog measurements. |
| RESET | Active-low reset input | Asynchronous reset assertion halts CPU and initializes peripherals - must be held low ≥100 ns after power stabilization for reliable boot. |
| XIN / XOUT | Crystal/resonator interface | Supports external 20 MHz crystal or ceramic resonator; internal feedback resistor eliminates need for external components in basic configurations. |
| XCIN / XCOUT | 32 kHz real-time clock source | Connects to 32.768 kHz crystal for Timer RE - enables low-power wait/stop modes with accurate timekeeping independent of main system clock. |
| P0_0–P0_7 | Analog input / General I/O | 12-bit-capable analog inputs AN0–AN7; configurable as CMOS I/O with software-selectable pull-up - used for sensor interfacing and button scanning. |
| INT0–INT3 | External interrupt inputs | Dedicated pins for edge-triggered interrupts (e.g., INT0 tied to Timer RD input); supports priority-level arbitration across 7 levels. |
| TXD0 / RXD0 | UART0 data output / input | Full-duplex asynchronous serial interface - used for host debugging, display control, or inter-MCU communication at configurable baud rates. |
| SCL / SDA | I²C bus clock / data | Open-drain, bidirectional signals compliant with standard-mode I²C (100 kbps) - interfaces with EEPROMs, temperature sensors, and other slave peripherals. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
