Product details
Overview
R7FA2E1A92DNE#AA0 from Renesas Electronics is an ultra-low-power 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M23 microcontroller operating at up to 48 MHz, featuring 128-KB code flash, 16-KB SRAM, a 12-bit ADC, capacitive touch sensing (CTSU2), and hardware AES/256 + TRNG security. It targets battery-powered HMI, smart sensors, and industrial control nodes requiring robust safety features and sub-100 µA/MHz active power.
For engineers reviewing the R7FA2E1A92DNE#AA0 datasheet, R7FA2E1A92DNE#AA0 pinout, R7FA2E1A92DNE#AA0 application, or R7FA2E1A92DNE#AA0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 48-pin HWQFN package with 37 I/O pins, -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature grade, integrated CTSU2 for 20-channel touch, dual AGT timers for low-power event timing, and support for SCI × 4, SPI × 1, and I²C × 1 interfaces.
Technical Context
The R7FA2E1A92DNE#AA0 implements the Armv8-M architecture with Memory Protection Unit (MPU) and CoreSight™ MTB-M23 trace, enabling secure, deterministic real-time operation. Its clock system integrates HOCO (48 MHz), SOSC (32.768 kHz), and LOCO oscillators with CAC for frequency accuracy monitoring - critical for RTC and communication timing integrity.
System-level safety is enforced via SRAM parity checking, flash area protection, ADC self-diagnosis, IWDT with dedicated 15-kHz oscillator, and register write protection. The Event Link Controller (ELC) enables autonomous peripheral-to-peripheral triggering without CPU intervention, reducing latency and power in sensor data acquisition and motor control loops.
