Product details
Overview
R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 from Renesas is an ultra-low-power 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M23 microcontroller operating at up to 32 MHz, featuring 64-KB code flash, 12-KB SRAM, 12-bit ADC with 10 input channels, integrated temperature sensor, and safety features including SRAM parity, CRC, IWDT, and flash protection. It targets battery-powered industrial sensors and smart metering endpoints requiring deterministic real-time response under 1.6–5.5 V supply.
For engineers reviewing the R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 datasheet, R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 pinout, R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 application, or R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (32-pin LQFP), validated pin functions per signal group, confirmed safety architecture (SRAM parity + illegal access detection), and two field-validated alternative MCUs with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 implements Armv8-M architecture with TrustZone®-enabled secure execution environment, supporting both secure and non-secure firmware partitions. Its memory subsystem includes 64-KB code flash with read protection (FRP), 1-KB data flash rated for 1,000,000 program/erase cycles, and 12-KB parity-protected SRAM-enabling robust firmware updates and runtime integrity checking.
Peripheral integration centers on deterministic timing control: eight 16-bit TAU timers support PWM generation and input capture, a configurable 32-bit interval timer (TML32) offers flexible counter modes (32-/16-/8-bit), and RTC provides calendar-based timekeeping with alarm and 1-Hz output. Serial connectivity comprises three SAU units (SPI/I²C/UART), one UARTA, and one IICA-all supporting LIN-bus on dedicated UART channel.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency and core architecture of the R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0?
The R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 features an Arm Cortex-M23 core operating at a maximum frequency of 32 MHz, implementing the Armv8-M architecture with TrustZone security extensions. This enables secure partitioning of firmware into trusted and non-trusted domains while delivering deterministic real-time performance for industrial control tasks. The R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 achieves this frequency using its high-speed on-chip oscillator (HOCO) or external crystal source, with clock trimming support for precision timing.
Does the R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 support functional safety standards such as IEC 61508?
Yes, the R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 integrates multiple hardware-level safety mechanisms-including SRAM parity error detection, flash area protection, independent watchdog timer (IWDT), illegal memory access detection, and cyclic redundancy check (CRC) calculation-which collectively support development toward IEC 61508 SIL2 compliance. Renesas provides safety manuals and FMEDA reports for the RA0E1 group, and the R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 is qualified for operation from -40°C to +105°C, meeting environmental requirements for industrial safety applications.
How many analog input channels does the 12-bit ADC (ADC12) on the R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 support?
The R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0's 12-bit ADC12 supports up to 10 analog input channels: AN000 through AN007, plus AN021 and AN022. These pins can be configured for single-ended or differential acquisition, and the ADC accepts internal reference voltage or external references applied to VREFH0/VREFL0. The integrated temperature sensor feeds directly into the ADC12, enabling on-die thermal monitoring without external circuitry in the R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0.
What debug interface does the R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 provide, and what are its key capabilities?
The R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 uses a two-pin Serial Wire Debug (SWD) interface via SWDIO and SWCLK pins, compliant with ARM CoreSight™ MTB-M23 and SW-DP specifications. It supports non-intrusive firmware download, real-time register inspection, hardware breakpoints, and trace buffer capture. The R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 also includes DWT and FPB modules for cycle-accurate profiling and exception tracing-essential for validating timing-critical firmware in safety-certified deployments.
What are the supported low-power modes and typical current consumption for the R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0?
The R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 supports multiple low-power modes including STOP, SNOOZE, and DEEP STOP, with typical current draw as low as 0.25 µA in DEEP STOP mode (RTC active). In STOP mode with peripherals clock-gated, current drops to ~1.2 µA. Wake-up sources include GPIO, RTC alarm, serial activity, and comparator events. The R7FA2E1A72DFM#BA0 maintains full SRAM retention and register state across all modes except DEEP STOP with RAM off, enabling rapid resumption of sensor polling or communication tasks.
