FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and supply voltage range for the R5F2L357CNFP#50?
The R5F2L357CNFP#50 operates up to 20 MHz when supplied at 2.7–5.5 V, and supports reduced-frequency operation down to 5 MHz at 1.8–5.5 V for ultra-low-voltage applications. Its minimum instruction execution time is 50 ns under 20 MHz/5.0 V conditions, confirmed in the R01DS0095EJ0101 datasheet Section 1.1.3.
Does the R5F2L357CNFP#50 support hardware LIN communication, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the R5F2L357CNFP#50 integrates a hardware LIN module using UART0 and Timer RA per the R01DS0095EJ0101 datasheet Section 1.1. The LIN physical layer is implemented entirely on-chip - no external transceiver is needed - making it suitable for automotive body electronics and appliance sub-networks requiring ISO 9141-2 or SAE J2602 compliance.
How many analog input channels does the R5F2L357CNFP#50 support, and what is their resolution?
The R5F2L357CNFP#50 features a 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with 10 input channels (AN0–AN9), mapped to P0_0–P0_5 and P13_0–P13_3. It includes sample-and-hold functionality and sweep mode for automatic channel scanning, enabling efficient multi-sensor acquisition in thermostats and appliance control systems.
What LCD configuration options are supported by the R5F2L357CNFP#50's built-in controller?
The R5F2L357CNFP#50 LCD controller supports up to 4 common outputs and 24 segment outputs, with selectable bias (1/2 or 1/3) and duty (static, 1/2, 1/3, or 1/4). It lacks VL3 and SEG52–SEG55 pins, so 1/4-bias and 1/8-duty modes are unavailable - confirmed in Table 1.1 Notes 2–3 of the R01DS0095EJ0101 datasheet.
Is background operation (BGO) available for data flash writes on the R5F2L357CNFP#50, and what is its endurance rating?
Yes, the R5F2L357CNFP#50 supports background operation (BGO) for data flash, allowing program/erase operations while the CPU executes code from ROM. Data flash endurance is rated at 10,000 write/erase cycles, and program ROM endurance is 1,000 cycles - specified in Table 1.6 of the R01DS0095EJ0101 datasheet.
