Product details
Overview
R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 from Renesas is a 30-pin, industrial-grade RL78/G23 16-bit microcontroller with 96 KB code flash, 8 KB data flash, and 12 KB RAM, operating from 1.6–5.5 V. It delivers ultra-low power consumption (41 µA/MHz active, 210 nA data retention), integrated capacitive touch sensing (CTSU2L), 10-bit ADC (up to 26 channels), and dual UART/I²C/SPI interfaces - deployed in battery-powered industrial HMI and sensor node applications.
For engineers reviewing the R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 datasheet, R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 pinout, R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 application, or R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its LSSOP-30 package with 0.65-mm pitch, -40°C to +105°C industrial temperature rating, on-chip RTC with alarm, SNOOZE mode sequencer for autonomous low-power operation, and hardware ELCL for event-driven peripheral coordination without CPU intervention.
Technical Context
The R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 implements the RL78 CPU core with 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, supporting instruction execution times from 0.03125 µs (32 MHz) to 30.5 µs (32.768 kHz). Its power management includes HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes, with wake-up from STOP in under 4 µs using internal oscillators.
Peripheral integration includes a 21-command SNOOZE mode sequencer (SMS) that executes up to 32 sequential operations autonomously, an Event Link Controller (ELCL) enabling direct signal routing between peripherals (e.g., timer output → ADC trigger), and a capacitive sensing unit (CTSU2L) supporting both self-capacitance (32 keys) and mutual-capacitance (8×8 matrix) configurations without CPU involvement.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and corresponding instruction cycle time for the R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0?
The R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 supports a maximum CPU frequency of 32 MHz using the high-speed on-chip oscillator. At this speed, the minimum instruction execution time is 0.03125 µs. This timing is achievable across the full industrial temperature range (-40°C to +105°C) and supply voltage (1.6–5.5 V), enabling deterministic real-time response in control loops and communication stacks.
Does the R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 support hardware-based capacitive touch sensing, and what configurations are available?
Yes, the R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 integrates the CTSU2L capacitive touch sensing unit. It supports self-capacitance mode (up to 32 independent keys using single pins) and mutual-capacitance mode (up to 64 keys in 8×8 matrix configuration). Both modes operate from 1.8–5.5 V and include hardware noise cancellation, allowing reliable touch detection in electrically noisy industrial environments without external components.
What low-power modes does the R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 offer, and what is the typical current draw in each?
The R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 offers HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes. In HALT mode, current is ~1.2 µA (typ.) with RAM retention. In STOP mode, it draws 210 nA (typ.) while retaining 4 KB of RAM. SNOOZE mode enables peripheral operation (e.g., ADC sampling, timer counting) with CPU halted, consuming ~1.8 µA (typ.) - all verified at -40°C to +105°C and 1.6–5.5 V supply.
Can the R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 perform background data flash writes while executing code from program memory?
Yes, the R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 supports Background Operation (BGO) for data flash memory. While running application code from code flash, the MCU can simultaneously rewrite the 8 KB data flash memory - essential for secure firmware updates, parameter storage, and event logging without interrupting real-time operation.
What is the function of the REGC pin on the R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0, and how must it be connected?
The REGC pin on the R7F100GAF3CSP#BA0 is the regulator capacitor terminal for the internal voltage regulator. It must be connected to VSS via a 0.47 µF to 1 µF ceramic capacitor, placed as close as possible to the pin. This capacitor stabilizes the internal regulated voltage, ensuring reliable operation of analog peripherals (ADC, CTSU2L, comparators) and low-power modes across temperature and supply variations.
