Product details
Overview
R5F523E5BGNF#00 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, ±5-V input range, dual excitation current sources (50–1000 µA), rail-to-rail programmable gain instrumentation amplifier (gain = 1–128), and 1.8–5.5-V single-supply operation. It targets load cell, pressure transducer, and strain gauge signal conditioning systems requiring IEC60730-compliant self-test capability.
For engineers reviewing the R5F523E5BGNF#00 datasheet, R5F523E5BGNF#00 pinout, R5F523E5BGNF#00 application, or R5F523E5BGNF#00 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 40-pin HWQFN package with HVAIN support, 128 KB flash/16 KB SRAM configuration, integrated ±5-V analog front end, CAN 2.0B interface, and -40°C to +105°C extended temperature grade.
Technical Context
The R5F523E5BGNF#00 implements the RXv2 CPU core at up to 32 MHz (64 DMIPS), with IEEE 754-compliant FPU, memory protection unit (MPU), and event link controller (ELC) enabling low-CPU-load peripheral coordination. Its analog subsystem centers on the DSADB module-synchronized to PCLKC (≤16 MHz)-with fourth- and fifth-order sinc digital filters, simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection at 10/54 SPS, and offset/gain error calibration.
Digital integration includes one CAN channel (ISO 11898-1, up to 1 Mbps), six SCIg interfaces (asynchronous/clock-sync/smart card), one RIIC (I²C/SMBus), one RSPI (up to 16 Mbps), and four-channel DMAC. Power management supports three low-power modes, LPT operation during software standby, and voltage detection across three independent LVD circuits.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F523E5KGNF#00 | Same 40-pin HWQFN package, 128 KB flash, but supports ±10-V analog input range via HVAIN pins. | Required for sensors with >±5 V output (e.g., certain piezoelectric accelerometers). | Select when analog input span exceeds ±5 V; otherwise R5F523E5BGNF#00 offers identical performance at lower cost. |

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate of the 24-bit delta-sigma ADC in R5F523E5BGNF#00?
The R5F523E5BGNF#00 supports a maximum sampling rate of 125 kSPS for its 24-bit delta-sigma ADC. This rate is achievable with appropriate modulator clock configuration (fMOD = 4 MHz) and digital filter selection. At lower data rates (e.g., 10 or 54 SPS), the device provides simultaneous 50 Hz and 60 Hz line-frequency rejection, critical for AC-noise environments. The R5F523E5BGNF#00 maintains effective resolution up to 24 bits at 3.8 SPS with gain = 1.
Does R5F523E5BGNF#00 support ±10-V analog inputs?
No, the R5F523E5BGNF#00 supports a maximum analog input range of ±5 V on its HVAIN pins. For ±10-V input capability, Renesas offers the pin-compatible R5F523E5KGNF#00 variant, which shares the same 40-pin HWQFN package and 128 KB flash configuration but is rated for the higher input voltage range. The R5F523E5BGNF#00 is optimized for sensors operating within the ±5-V window, such as most strain gauges and pressure transducers.
What debugging interface does R5F523E5BGNF#00 use?
The R5F523E5BGNF#00 uses the FINE (Fast IN-Circuit Emulator) interface for on-chip debugging. This 4-pin serial interface supports full-speed execution, breakpoint setting, register and memory inspection, and flash programming via Renesas E1 or E2 emulator hardware. The FINE interface is implemented on dedicated pins (MD, RD, TD, RES#) and requires no additional GPIO resources, preserving all I/O for application use.
Can R5F523E5BGNF#00 operate from a 1.8-V supply?
Yes, the R5F523E5BGNF#00 operates from a single 1.8-V to 5.5-V supply for its VCC domain. At 1.8–2.4 V, the maximum CPU frequency is 8 MHz; at 2.4–2.7 V, it increases to 16 MHz; and at 2.7–5.5 V, it achieves the full 32 MHz. The analog domain (AVCC0) requires 4.5–5.5 V for optimal 24-bit ADC performance, though the 12-bit S12AD can function down to 1.8 V. This multi-voltage flexibility enables low-power operation while maintaining analog precision.
Is the R5F523E5BGNF#00 pin-compatible with other RX23E-B variants in the 40-pin HWQFN package?
Yes, all RX23E-B Group devices in the PWQN0040KD-A package-including R5F523E5BGNF#00, R5F523E5KGNF#00, R5F523E5MGNF#00, R5F523E6BGNF#00, and R5F523E6KGNF#00-share identical pinouts and mechanical dimensions. This allows hardware design reuse across performance grades (128 KB vs. 256 KB flash), analog input ranges (±5 V vs. ±10 V), and sampling rates (125 kSPS vs. 31.25 kSPS), simplifying platform scalability and inventory management.
