Product details
Overview
R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 from Renesas is a 32-pin RL78/G23 16-bit microcontroller with 256 KB code flash, 8 KB data flash, and 24 KB RAM, operating from 1.6–5.5 V. It delivers ultra-low power consumption (41 µA/MHz active, 210 nA data retention), integrates capacitive touch sensing (CTSU2L), RTC, 16-bit TAU timers, UARTA/IICA/SAU interfaces, and supports consumer-grade operation from −40 to +85°C.
For engineers reviewing the R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 datasheet, R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 pinout, R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 application, or R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 32-pin HWQFN (5 × 5 mm, 0.50-mm pitch) package, 256 KB flash capacity, CTSU2L-based touch interface support, and SNOOZE mode sequencer for autonomous low-power sensor polling.
Technical Context
The R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 implements the RL78 CPU core with 3-stage pipeline CISC architecture, supporting configurable instruction execution times from 0.03125 µs (32 MHz high-speed mode) to 30.5 µs (32.768 kHz ultra-low-speed mode). It features a dedicated SNOOZE mode sequencer (SMS) enabling up to 32 sequential low-power operations without CPU wake-up.
Peripheral integration includes a Logic and Event Link Controller (ELCL) for hardware event routing between functions, a Data Transfer Controller (DTC) with chain transfer capability, and a capacitive sensing unit (CTSU2L) supporting both self- and mutual-capacitance methods-up to 32 keys (self) or 64 keys (8×8 matrix)-with VDD = 1.8–5.5 V operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Core Architecture | RL78 16-bit CISC with 3-stage pipeline; enables deterministic timing control and low gate count for cost-sensitive embedded designs. |
| Flash Memory | 256 KB code flash + 8 KB data flash; supports background operation (BGO) and 1M rewrite cycles for robust firmware/data updates. |
| RAM | 24 KB on-chip RAM; retains data at 210 nA in STOP mode, enabling long battery life in always-on sensor nodes. |
| Operating Voltage | 1.6–5.5 V single supply; eliminates need for external voltage regulators in multi-rail systems and simplifies power design. |
| Capacitive Sensing | CTSU2L unit supporting self-capacitance (32 keys) and mutual-capacitance (64 keys); enables reliable touch UI without external ICs. |
| Low-Power Modes | HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes; SNOOZE sequencer executes 32-step sequences autonomously, reducing system-level wake-up overhead. |
| Package | 32-pin HWQFN (5 × 5 mm, 0.50-mm pitch); compact footprint ideal for space-constrained consumer electronics PCBs. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 32-pin HWQFN (5 × 5 mm, 0.50-mm pitch), exposed die pad recommended to be connected to VSS.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| P10–P17 | Multi-function I/O with SAU/SPI/I²C/UART support | Enable flexible peripheral routing via PIOR register; supports simultaneous serial communication (e.g., I²C master + UART slave). |
| P20–P23, P00–P01, P120, P147 | Analog input channels (ANI0–ANI19) | 10-bit ADC with internal 1.48 V reference and temperature sensor; supports up to 26 analog inputs across variants. |
| P30, P31, P70–P73 | Capacitive touch sense pins (TSCAP, TSxx) | Direct connection to CTSU2L; enables self-capacitance (single-key) or mutual-capacitance (matrix) touch detection without external components. |
| P121/P122 | Crystal oscillator inputs (X1/X2) | Supports 32.768 kHz crystal for RTC accuracy or high-speed crystal for precise timing; internal oscillators provide ±1.0% accuracy. |
| RESET, REGC, VDD, VSS | Power and reset management | REGC requires 0.47–1 µF capacitor to VSS; integrated POR and dual LVDs enable robust brown-out protection. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R7F100GBJ2DNP | Same RL78/G23 family, 32-pin HWQFN, but with 128 KB code flash and 16 KB RAM. | Lower memory capacity suits simpler control-only tasks without complex UI or data logging. | Select when firmware size <128 KB and RAM usage <16 KB; reduces BOM cost without sacrificing peripheral set or low-power capability. |
| R7F100GCJ2DLA | 36-pin WFLGA (4 × 4 mm), 192 KB flash, 20 KB RAM; same voltage/temperature specs. | Smaller package with higher pin density; lacks exposed die pad, limiting thermal performance in continuous operation. | Choose for ultra-compact PCBs where 32-pin HWQFN layout area is constrained, accepting tighter routing and no thermal pad. |
Compared with R7F100GBJ2DNP and R7F100GCJ2DLA, the R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 provides optimal balance of memory headroom (256 KB flash), capacitive touch scalability (32-key self-capacitance), and thermal reliability (exposed die pad), making it preferred for feature-rich consumer HMI designs requiring field-upgradable firmware and long battery life.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and corresponding supply voltage range for the R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0?
The R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 supports up to 32 MHz operation using its high-speed on-chip oscillator, with guaranteed functionality across its full 1.6–5.5 V supply range. At 32 MHz, minimum instruction execution time is 0.03125 µs. The device also supports ultra-low-speed operation at 32.768 kHz for RTC and deep-sleep timing, maintaining operation down to 1.6 V.
Does the R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 support hardware-accelerated capacitive touch sensing, and what configurations are available?
Yes, the R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 integrates the CTSU2L capacitive touch sensing unit. It supports self-capacitance mode (up to 32 keys on a single pin per key) and mutual-capacitance mode (up to 64 keys in an 8×8 matrix configuration). Both operate within VDD = 1.8–5.5 V and include built-in noise suppression algorithms, enabling robust touch detection without external components.
What low-power modes does the R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 offer, and how does SNOOZE mode differ from STOP mode?
The R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 offers HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes. In STOP mode, CPU, flash, and RAM are halted; wake-up occurs via interrupt. SNOOZE mode keeps the CTSU2L, ADC, and RTC active while CPU remains stopped-its sequencer autonomously executes up to 32 predefined commands (e.g., "sample channel 5," "compare result to threshold") without CPU intervention, achieving lower average current than periodic STOP wake-ups.
Can the R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 perform background data flash writes while executing application code from main flash memory?
Yes, the R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 supports Background Operation (BGO) for its 8 KB data flash. While the CPU executes instructions from code flash, the data flash can be rewritten-enabling safe over-the-air (OTA) parameter updates, calibration storage, or event logging without halting real-time application logic or introducing timing jitter.
What is the pin-compatible upgrade path from the R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 within the RL78/G23 family?
There is no pin-compatible upgrade within the RL78/G23 family that increases flash/RAM while retaining the exact 32-pin HWQFN package. The R7F100GAJ2DSP#BA0 (256 KB/24 KB) is the highest-memory variant in the 32-pin HWQFN option. To increase memory, migration requires moving to larger packages (e.g., 40-pin HWQFN or 44-pin LQFP) such as R7F100GEJ2DNP (192 KB) or R7F100GFJ2DFP (256 KB in 44-pin LQFP), which involve PCB layout changes.
