Product details
Overview
R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 from Renesas is an ultra-low-power 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M23 microcontroller in a 20-pin LSSOP package, operating up to 32 MHz with 64-KB code flash, 12-KB SRAM, and integrated 12-bit ADC, UARTA, IICA, SAU, RTC, and safety features including SRAM parity, IWDT, and CRC. It targets battery-powered industrial sensors and smart metering interfaces requiring extended runtime and functional safety.
For engineers reviewing the R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 datasheet, R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 pinout, R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 application, or R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions for the LSSOP-20 variant, confirmed safety architecture (SRAM parity, IWDT, register write protection), and real-world use cases in low-voltage sensor nodes and LIN-capable control modules.
Technical Context
The R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 implements the Armv8-M architecture with TrustZone®-enabled security extensions, supporting secure boot and isolated execution environments. Its system-level timing relies on multiple clock sources: HOCO (32 MHz), LOCO (32.768 kHz), and external crystal support via X1/X2 pins - all managed by the Clock Generation Circuit with trimmable accuracy.
Peripheral integration follows Renesas' RA family commonality: the Serial Array Unit (SAU) provides three simplified SPI, three simplified I²C, and two UART channels (plus one LIN-enabled UART), while the TAU timer array delivers eight 16-bit channels with PWM capability and flexible channel grouping for higher-resolution timing functions.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0?
The R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 operates at a maximum frequency of 32 MHz using its high-speed on-chip oscillator (HOCO). This frequency is achievable across the full operating voltage range (1.6–5.5 V) and temperature range (-40°C to +105°C), and the HOCO supports ±1.0% accuracy with trimming enabled. The R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 also supports external crystal oscillators up to 20 MHz for higher precision timing.
Does the R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 support LIN bus communication?
Yes, the R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 supports LIN bus communication through its dedicated UART channel (UART2) within the Serial Array Unit (SAU). This channel is explicitly documented as LIN-bus supported in the datasheet and complies with ISO 17987-2. The R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 does not include a dedicated LIN transceiver, so an external physical layer IC is required for bus termination and level translation.
How many analog input channels does the R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 have?
The R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 provides six analog input channels (AN000 to AN005) for its 12-bit ADC12 module. This count is specific to the 20-pin LSSOP package variant (R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0); other package variants offer up to ten channels. The ADC supports internal references (VREFH0/VREFL0) and can digitize the on-die temperature sensor output.
What safety features are implemented in the R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0?
The R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 integrates multiple hardware-based safety features: SRAM parity error detection with automatic reset, Independent Watchdog Timer (IWDT) operating on the LOCO clock, Flash Area Protection, ADC self-diagnosis, Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) engine, GPIO readback level detection, register write protection, and illegal memory access detection. These features collectively support IEC 61508 SIL-2 compliance.
Is the R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 pin-compatible with other RA0E1 group members?
Yes, the R7FA0E1073CSC#HA0 is pin-compatible with other 20-pin LSSOP variants in the RA0E1 group, including R7FA0E1053CSC#HA0 and R7FA0E1073CSD#HA0 (TSSOP-20). Pin compatibility extends to power, clock, debug, reset, and all GPIO/ADC/communication signals. However, it is not pin-compatible with 32-pin, 24-pin, or 16-pin RA0E1 variants due to differing pin counts and assignments.
