Overview
R5F21358CNFP#50 from Renesas Electronics is a 16-bit R8C CPU core MCU with 64 KB flash program ROM, 6 KB data flash (4 × 1 KB blocks), and 6 KB RAM, operating at up to 20 MHz (VCC = 2.7–5.5 V) with 50 ns minimum instruction execution time. It integrates UART0/1/2, I²C, SSU, LIN hardware module, 10-bit × 12-channel ADC, dual 8-bit DACs, and six timer units (RA–RE, RD dual-channel), targeting embedded control in consumer audio and office equipment.
For engineers reviewing the R5F21358CNFP#50 datasheet, R5F21358CNFP#50 pinout, R5F21358CNFP#50 application, or R5F21358CNFP#50 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 52-pin LQFP package, -20°C to +85°C N-version temperature rating, background operation (BGO) for data flash, real-time clock (Timer RE), and hardware LIN support using Timer RA and UART0.
Technical Context
The R5F21358CNFP#50 implements the R8C CPU core with 89 fundamental instructions, 16×16→32-bit multiplier, and multiply-accumulate capability. Its memory map spans 1 Mbyte (00000h–FFFFFh), with fixed interrupt vector table at 0FFDCh–0FFFFh and data flash at 03000h–03FFFh.
It supports four clock sources: XIN (up to 20 MHz), XCIN (32 kHz), high-speed on-chip oscillator (adjustable), and low-speed on-chip oscillator. Power management includes wait mode (3.5 µA @ 3.0 V, f(XCIN)=32 kHz) and stop mode (2.0 µA), with voltage detection circuits for power-on reset and configurable level monitoring.

The R5F21358CNFP#50 operates at a maximum frequency of 20 MHz when supplied with VCC = 2.7 V to 5.5 V. At lower supply voltages (1.8 V to 5.5 V), the maximum supported frequency is reduced to 5 MHz to ensure reliable operation and meet timing specifications across the full voltage range.
Does the R5F21358CNFP#50 support background operation for data flash programming?
Yes, the R5F21358CNFP#50 supports Background Operation (BGO) for its 1 KB × 4 data flash blocks. This allows the CPU to continue executing code from program ROM while simultaneously erasing or programming data flash, enabling seamless firmware updates and parameter storage without system interruption.
How many analog-to-digital converter channels does the R5F21358CNFP#50 provide, and what is their resolution?
The R5F21358CNFP#50 integrates a 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with 12 input channels (AN0–AN11). It supports sample-and-hold functionality and sweep mode for automatic sequential conversion, making it suitable for multi-sensor monitoring in appliances and industrial controls.
What peripheral interfaces are available on the R5F21358CNFP#50 for connecting to external sensors or displays?
The R5F21358CNFP#50 provides UART0/1/2 (with UART2 supporting I²C-bus mode), an independent I²C bus interface, SSU for synchronous serial communication, and hardware LIN using Timer RA and UART0-enabling direct connectivity to temperature sensors, OLED displays, IR receivers, and automotive-grade peripherals without external protocol translators.
Is the R5F21358CNFP#50 pin-compatible with other members of the R8C/35C Group?
Yes, all R8C/35C Group MCUs-including R5F21354CNFP through R5F21358CNFP and R5F2135ACNFP-share the identical 52-pin LQFP (PLQP0052JA-A) package and pin assignment.
