Product details
Overview
R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 from Renesas is a 128-pin, industrial-grade RL78/G23 16-bit MCU with 384 KB code flash, 8 KB data flash, and 32 KB RAM, operating from 1.6–5.5 V. It delivers true low-power operation (41 µA/MHz active, 210 nA data retention), integrated capacitive touch sensing (up to 64 keys), and rich peripherals including 16-bit TAU timers, RTC, 12-bit ADC (26 channels), dual 8-bit DACs, and UART/I²C/SPI interfaces - deployed in smart industrial HMI panels requiring robust touch control and extended battery life.
For engineers reviewing the R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 datasheet, R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 pinout, R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 application, or R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its LFQFP-128 (0.5 mm pitch) package, -40°C to +105°C industrial temperature rating, SNOOZE mode sequencer for autonomous low-power sensor polling, and CTSU2L capacitive sensing unit supporting mutual-capacitance matrix configurations.
Technical Context
The R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 implements the RL78 CPU core with a 3-stage pipeline, supporting instruction execution times from 0.03125 µs (32 MHz high-speed mode) to 30.5 µs (32.768 kHz ultra-low-speed mode). Its power architecture includes HALT, STOP, and SNOOZE modes, with hardware-assisted wake-up and background data flash rewriting via BGO.
Peripheral integration centers on event-driven operation: the Event Link Controller (ELCL) enables direct signal routing between functions (e.g., ADC trigger → DMA transfer), while the SNOOZE Mode Sequencer executes up to 32 preconfigured commands-including ADC sampling, comparison, and conditional branching-without CPU intervention or RAM/flash activation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Core | RL78 16-bit CISC with 3-stage pipeline; enables deterministic real-time response and ultra-low-power sleep/wake cycles. |
| Flash Memory | 384 KB code flash + 8 KB data flash; supports self-programming with boot swapping and flash shield window for secure firmware updates. |
| RAM | 32 KB on-chip RAM; retains full 32 KB at 210 nA in STOP mode, enabling rapid wake-up with state preservation. |
| Operating Voltage | 1.6–5.5 V single supply; eliminates need for external voltage regulators in multi-rail industrial systems. |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +105°C (industrial grade); qualified for use in motor drives, PLC I/O modules, and factory automation edge nodes. |
| Capacitive Sensing | CTSU2L unit supporting 64-key mutual-capacitance matrix (8×8) or 32-key self-capacitance; operates down to 1.8 V with built-in noise suppression. |
| Low-Power Modes | HALT (0.29 µA), STOP (0.34 µA), SNOOZE (1.2 µA avg); SNOOZE sequencer handles periodic ADC reads and comparisons autonomously. |
Pinout & Package
Package: LFQFP-128 (14 × 20 mm, 0.50-mm pitch), lead-free, RoHS-compliant, industrial temperature grade (3C).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| P121 / P122 | XT1 / XT2 crystal oscillator inputs | Supports 32.768 kHz RTC crystal and up to 20 MHz main system crystal; enables precise timekeeping and stable high-speed operation. |
| P30 / P31 / P70–P73 | TSCAP / TSxx touch sense pins | Dedicated CTSU2L input pins; enable mutual-capacitance scanning across up to 64 electrodes without GPIO resource contention. |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0?
The R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 supports a maximum operating frequency of 24 MHz using the high-speed on-chip oscillator. It also supports 32 MHz operation when an external crystal is used with the PLL, though the rated maximum system clock per datasheet is 24 MHz for guaranteed timing compliance across the full -40°C to +105°C range. The R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 maintains full peripheral functionality and timing specifications at this speed.
Does the R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 support hardware-based capacitive touch sensing?
Yes, the R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 integrates the CTSU2L (Capacitive Touch Sensing Unit Level 2) which provides dedicated hardware for both self-capacitance (up to 32 keys) and mutual-capacitance (up to 64 keys in 8×8 matrix) sensing. It includes built-in noise cancellation, automatic calibration, and operates independently of the CPU - enabling low-power, high-reliability touch interfaces without firmware overhead. The R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0's CTSU2L is fully functional across its entire 1.8–5.5 V supply range.
What debug interface does the R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 use?
The R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 uses the Renesas FINE (Fast In-circuit NEtwork) debug interface, accessible via the TOOL0 (pin 1) and TOOLRxD/TOOLTxD (pins 25/24) signals. This 2-wire interface supports full JTAG-equivalent functionality - including halt/resume, breakpoint setting, memory inspection, and flash programming - using only two pins and requiring no dedicated debug header. The R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0's FINE interface remains active in all low-power modes except HALT, enabling deep-sleep debugging.
Can the R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 perform background data flash writes while executing code from main flash?
Yes, the R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 supports Background Operation (BGO) for data flash. While the CPU executes instructions from code flash memory, the data flash controller can simultaneously rewrite 8 KB of data flash - enabling seamless firmware updates, parameter logging, or configuration storage without interrupting real-time application tasks. The R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 guarantees 1,000,000 write/erase cycles for data flash under typical operating conditions.
What is the purpose of the REGC pin on the R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0?
The REGC pin on the R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 connects to the internal LDO regulator's stabilization capacitor - a mandatory 0.47 µF to 1 µF ceramic capacitor must be placed between REGC and VSS. This capacitor ensures stable internal voltage regulation for analog circuits (ADC, CTSU2L, comparators) and prevents oscillation or measurement drift. Omitting or undersizing the REGC capacitor on the R7F100GSL3CFB#BA0 causes erratic touch performance, ADC inaccuracies, and potential system resets.
