Product details
Overview
R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 from Renesas is an RL78/G23 52-pin industrial-grade 16-bit MCU 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), integrated capacitive touch sensing (CTSU2L), and dual-clock domain operation supporting high-speed (32 MHz) and ultra-low-speed (32.768 kHz) modes for battery-powered sensor nodes and smart industrial controls.
For engineers reviewing the R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 datasheet, R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 pinout, R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 application, or R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 52-pin LFQFP-0.65mm package, -40°C to +105°C industrial temperature rating, SNOOZE mode sequencer for autonomous low-power sensing, and hardware-accelerated CTSU2L supporting up to 64 mutual-capacitance keys.
Technical Context
The R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 implements the RL78 CPU core with a 3-stage pipeline, supporting instruction execution times from 0.03125 µs (32 MHz) to 30.5 µs (32.768 kHz). Its SNOOZE mode sequencer (SMS) executes up to 32 preconfigured commands-including ADC sampling, comparator evaluation, and CTSU2L scanning-without CPU wake-up, enabling deterministic sub-microamp background operation.
Peripheral integration includes a 10-channel 12-bit ADC with internal 1.48 V reference and temperature sensor, dual 8-bit DACs with real-time output, 2-channel comparators with selectable internal/external references, and flexible serial interfaces: up to 10 I²C/Simplified I²C channels, 6 UARTA/LIN channels, and 8 CSI (SPI-compatible) channels-all configurable via peripheral I/O redirection register (PIOR).

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and corresponding supply voltage range for the R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0?
The R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 supports a maximum operating frequency of 32 MHz using the high-speed on-chip oscillator, which maintains ±1.0% accuracy across VDD = 1.8–5.5 V and TA = –20°C to +85°C. At 32 MHz, the device consumes 41 µA per MHz, and the minimum supply voltage for full-speed operation is 1.8 V. Below 1.8 V, the core automatically scales to lower frequencies (e.g., 24 MHz at 1.6 V) to maintain stability.
Does the R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 support hardware-based capacitive touch sensing, and what configurations are available?
Yes, the R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 integrates the CTSU2L capacitive touch sensing unit, supporting both self-capacitance (up to 32 keys on single pins) and mutual-capacitance (8×8 matrix, up to 64 keys) configurations. It includes hardware noise cancellation, automatic drift compensation, and programmable scan timing - all without CPU intervention. The unit operates across the full VDD range (1.8–5.5 V) and is qualified for industrial ESD immunity per IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4.
How does the SNOOZE mode sequencer (SMS) function in the R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0, and what operations can it perform autonomously?
The SNOOZE mode sequencer (SMS) in the R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 executes up to 32 preloaded commands without waking the CPU, flash, or RAM. Supported operations include ADC conversions, CTSU2L scans, comparator evaluations, GPIO toggles, and timer starts/stops. Each command can include conditional branching based on result values, enabling autonomous state machines for periodic sensing - reducing average current to sub-microamp levels while maintaining precise timing control.
What are the key differences between the R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 and the R7F100GLK3CFA#AA0 beyond memory capacity?
Beyond the doubled code flash (256 KB vs 512 KB) and RAM (24 KB vs 48 KB), the R7F100GLK3CFA#AA0 adds two additional 16-bit timer channels and one extra UARTA channel. Both share identical peripheral sets (CTSU2L, ELCL, SAU, RTC), pinout, package, and electrical specifications. No changes to PCB layout or firmware driver layer are needed when upgrading - only application code and linker script adjustments for expanded memory usage.
Is the R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 qualified for industrial temperature operation, and what thermal management guidance applies?
Yes, the R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 is rated for industrial ambient temperature operation from –40°C to +105°C (suffix "C" in part number denotes industrial field-of-application). For thermal management in high-density layouts, Renesas recommends connecting the exposed die pad (present in HWQFN packages) to a VSS plane; however, the R7F100GJK3CFA#AA0 uses LQFP packaging without an exposed pad, so standard 10-layer PCB thermal vias under the package body are sufficient to maintain junction temperature within spec at 100% CPU load.
