Product details
Overview
R7F702301BFABG-C#BC8 from Renesas Electronics is an automotive-grade RL78/F23-series 16-bit microcontroller with 128 KB Flash, 8 KB RAM, and 12 KB data flash, operating up to 40 MHz. It features 32 I/O lines, 4 CSI/UART/LIN interfaces, no CAN, 1 I²C channel, capacitive touch sensing (10 ch), and 11x 12-bit ADC channels - deployed in body control modules for door/window actuation and lighting control.
For engineers reviewing the R7F702301BFABG-C#BC8 datasheet, R7F702301BFABG-C#BC8 pinout, R7F702301BFABG-C#BC8 application, or R7F702301BFABG-C#BC8 equivalent, this page delivers verified functional specs, package mapping to PWQN0032KF-B (QFN-32, 5 × 5 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), automotive temperature grade (−40°C to +125°C), ISO 26262 ASIL B support, and real-world substitution guidance for RL78/F23 migration paths.
Technical Context
The R7F702301BFABG-C#BC8 implements the RL78 CPU core with 16-bit architecture, no FPU, and supports single-pin debug via E2 Lite OCD interface. Its peripheral set includes a 10-channel capacitive touch sensing unit (CTSU), Application Accelerator Unit (AAU), and Advanced Encryption Standard Engine A (AESEA) for AES-256 crypto acceleration.
It integrates dual internal oscillators (15 kHz subclock and 40 MHz main clock), POR/LVD/DTC/AAU/AESEA safety features, and operates across 2.7–5.5 V supply range. The device lacks CAN/CAN-FD and external bus interface, distinguishing it from RL78/F13-CAN or RL78/F14 variants.
