Product details
Overview
R5F523E5BDFM#50 from Renesas is a 32-bit RXv2 microcontroller optimized for high-precision analog measurement in industrial sensing applications. It integrates a 24-bit delta-sigma ADC with 125 kSPS max sampling rate, ±10-V input capability via HVAIN pins, rail-to-rail programmable gain instrumentation amplifier (gain = 1–128), and on-chip excitation current sources (50–1000 µA). Operating at up to 32 MHz with 128 KB flash, 16 KB SRAM, and 8 KB data flash, it targets load cell, pressure transducer, and weigh scale front-end systems.
For engineers reviewing the R5F523E5BDFM#50 datasheet, R5F523E5BDFM#50 pinout, R5F523E5BDFM#50 application, or R5F523E5BDFM#50 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 64-pin LFQFP package, 125 kSPS delta-sigma ADC performance, ±10-V analog input range, integrated PGA and excitation sources, and IEC60730 safety support functions - all critical for precision sensor signal conditioning in harsh environments.
Technical Context
The R5F523E5BDFM#50 implements a dedicated analog front end (AFEA) with dual A/D subsystems: an 8-channel 24-bit delta-sigma converter (DSADB) synchronized to PCLKC (≤16 MHz) and an 8-channel 12-bit SAR converter (S12ADE) synchronized to PCLKD (≤32 MHz). Its DSADB includes fourth- and fifth-order sinc digital filters, simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection at 10/54 SPS, and offset/gain error calibration.
It features a 32-bit RXv2 CPU core with IEEE 754-compliant FPU, memory protection unit (MPU), and event link controller (ELC) enabling low-power operation - allowing peripheral modules like MTU2a timers and DSADB to trigger conversions without CPU wake-up. The device supports three low-power modes and operates across 1.8–5.5 V supply with –40°C to +85°C temperature rating (D version).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-precision analog microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F523E5KDFM#50 | Same 64-pin LFQFP package and 128 KB/16 KB memory, but supports ±10-V analog input range (vs. ±5-V for R5F523E5BDFM#50) | Required for applications needing full ±10-V bridge input headroom without external signal scaling | Select when sensor output spans >±5 V or when maximizing dynamic range without external amplification |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate of the 24-bit delta-sigma ADC in R5F523E5BDFM#50?
The R5F523E5BDFM#50 supports a maximum sampling rate of 125 kSPS for its 24-bit delta-sigma ADC (DSADB). This rate is achievable with modulator clock fMOD = 4 MHz and appropriate sinc filter configuration. At lower data rates (e.g., 10 or 54 SPS), the device provides simultaneous 50 Hz and 60 Hz line-frequency rejection for industrial noise immunity.
Does R5F523E5BDFM#50 support ±10-V analog inputs?
Yes, R5F523E5BDFM#50 supports ±10-V analog inputs via its HVAIN0–HVAIN3 pins. This capability is confirmed in Table 1.3 of the datasheet (R01DS0402EJ0100), where the "B" suffix denotes the 5-V analog input range variant, and the "K"/"L" variants denote ±10-V range. However, R5F523E5BDFM#50 itself is specified for up to ±5-V input - the ±10-V capability applies only to R5F523E5KDFM#50 and R5F523E5LDFP#50. Therefore, R5F523E5BDFM#50 supports up to ±5 V on HVAIN pins.
What communication interfaces are available on R5F523E5BDFM#50?
R5F523E5BDFM#50 includes six SCI channels (SCI0, SCI1, SCI5, SCI6, SCI8, SCI9), one I²C bus interface (RIICa), one serial peripheral interface (RSPIc), and one CAN module (RSCAN) compliant with ISO 11898-1 up to 1 Mbps. It does not include SCIh (LIN-capable) or LCD controller - features present in higher-pin-count variants like the 100-pin models.
Is the R5F523E5BDFM#50 qualified for IEC60730 compliance?
Yes, R5F523E5BDFM#50 includes hardware-assisted self-diagnostic features required for IEC60730 Class B compliance, including A/D converter diagnostics, clock frequency accuracy measurement (CAC), independent watchdog timer (IWDT) testing, RAM test assistance via the data operation circuit (DOC), and analog input disconnect detection. These are explicitly listed under "Useful functions for IEC60730 compliance" in the datasheet.
What is the operating temperature range of R5F523E5BDFM#50?
R5F523E5BDFM#50 is rated for industrial operation from –40°C to +85°C (D-grade). This is confirmed by the "D" suffix in the part number and explicitly stated in Table 1.3 and Section 1.4 of the datasheet (R01DS0402EJ0100 Rev.1.00). It is not rated for the extended –40°C to +105°C (G-grade) range.
