Product details
Overview
R5F523E5SDNF#00 from Renesas is a 32-bit RXv2 microcontroller optimized for high-precision industrial sensor measurement, integrating one 24-bit delta-sigma ADC unit, a 12-bit SAR ADC (6 channels), rail-to-rail programmable gain instrumentation amplifiers (gain = 1–128), excitation current sources (up to four, 50–1000 µA), and a low-drift 2.5-V voltage reference (10 ppm/°C). It operates at up to 32 MHz with 128 KB flash, 16 KB SRAM, and 8 KB data flash, targeting thermocouple and RTD signal conditioning in compact industrial modules.
For engineers reviewing the R5F523E5SDNF#00 datasheet, R5F523E5SDNF#00 pinout, R5F523E5SDNF#00 application, or R5F523E5SDNF#00 equivalent, this MCU delivers calibrated analog front-end performance with integrated diagnostics for IEC60730 Class B compliance, event-driven low-power operation via ELC, and CAN 2.0B communication - all in a 40-pin HWQFN (6 × 6 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) package suitable for space-constrained metering and process control designs.
Technical Context
The R5F523E5SDNF#00 implements a single 24-bit delta-sigma A/D converter unit (DSAD0) with fourth-order sinc filtering, 23-bit effective resolution at 7.6 SPS, and simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection. Its analog front end includes two independent excitation current sources (IEXC0/IEXC1), bias voltage generator (VBIAS = (AVCC0 + AVSS0)/2), and low-side switch (10 Ω on-resistance) for 4-wire RTD configurations.
Digital subsystems include a 32-bit RXv2 CPU core (64 DMIPS @ 32 MHz), FPU compliant with IEEE754 single-precision, memory protection unit (MPU), and event link controller (ELC) enabling timer-triggered ADC conversions and peripheral coordination without CPU wake-up - critical for deterministic low-power sensor acquisition cycles.

The R5F523E5SDNF#00 features one 24-bit delta-sigma A/D converter (DSAD0) with up to 23-bit effective resolution at 7.6 SPS (gain = 1, output data rate = 7.6 SPS), verified per datasheet R01DS0330EJ0130. This resolution is achieved with fourth-order sinc filtering and simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection, making R5F523E5SDNF#00 suitable for high-accuracy RTD and thermocouple measurement where noise immunity is critical.
Does R5F523E5SDNF#00 support IEC60730 Class B compliance out of the box?
Yes, R5F523E5SDNF#00 includes hardware-assisted self-diagnostic functions required for IEC60730 Class B: ADC offset/gain calibration, clock frequency accuracy measurement (CAC), independent watchdog timer (IWDT), RAM test support via Data Operation Circuit (DOC), and analog input disconnect detection. These features reduce firmware development effort for safety certification, and R5F523E5SDNF#00 is explicitly positioned for Class B-compliant industrial equipment per its datasheet feature list.
How many excitation current sources does R5F523E5SDNF#00 provide, and what are their key specifications?
R5F523E5SDNF#00 provides two dedicated excitation current sources (IEXC0 and IEXC1), each programmable from 50 µA to 1000 µA in six discrete steps. They offer ±0.2% current matching and 5 ppm/°C drift matching - critical for accurate 2-/3-/4-wire RTD measurements. The R5F523E5SDNF#00 datasheet confirms these sources are fully integrated and controllable via register settings without external components.
What is the operating temperature range specified for R5F523E5SDNF#00?
R5F523E5SDNF#00 is rated for an operating ambient temperature range of –40°C to +85°C (D version), as confirmed in Table 1.3 and Figure 1.1 of the R01DS0330EJ0130 datasheet. This qualification covers industrial environments such as factory automation, building controls, and outdoor metering enclosures where extended thermal stability is required.
Can R5F523E5SDNF#00 perform simultaneous analog conversions across its ADCs?
Yes, R5F523E5SDNF#00 supports inter-unit A/D conversion synchronized start between its 24-bit delta-sigma ADC (DSAD0) and 12-bit SAR ADC (S12AD), as documented in the "Analog Functions" section of the datasheet. This capability enables time-aligned sampling of fast transients (via S12AD) and high-resolution DC values (via DSAD0), which is essential for applications like thermocouple cold-junction compensation with dynamic ambient sensing.
