Product details
Overview
R7FA0E1053CNK#BA0 from Renesas is an ultra-low-power 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M23 microcontroller in a 24-pin HWQFN (5 mm × 5 mm) package, operating up to 32 MHz with 32-KB code flash, 12-KB SRAM, and integrated 12-bit ADC. It supports UART, SPI, I²C, LIN-bus, RTC, and safety features including SRAM parity, IWDT, and CRC - deployed in battery-powered industrial sensors and smart metering endpoints.
For engineers reviewing the R7FA0E1053CNK#BA0 datasheet, R7FA0E1053CNK#BA0 pinout, R7FA0E1053CNK#BA0 application, or R7FA0E1053CNK#BA0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 24-pin HWQFN footprint, 32-KB flash capacity, -40°C to +105°C extended temperature range, and support for LIN-bus communication and hardware-based safety diagnostics.
Technical Context
The R7FA0E1053CNK#BA0 implements the Armv8-M architecture with TrustZone®-enabled security extensions and executes instructions at up to 32 MHz using HOCO/MOCO/LOCO clock sources. Its memory subsystem includes 32-KB code flash with read protection, 1-KB data flash (1M program/erase cycles), and 12-KB parity-protected SRAM.
Peripheral integration centers on the Serial Array Unit (SAU) supporting three simplified SPI, three simplified I²C, and two UART channels - one of which supports LIN-bus physical layer compliance. Safety is enforced via independent watchdog timer (IWDT), illegal memory access detection, register write protection, and ADC self-diagnosis.
