Product details
Overview
R7FA2E1A93CFL#AA0 from Renesas 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 Sensing Unit (CTSU2), and integrated security (AES128/256, TRNG). It targets battery-powered HMI, sensor nodes, and industrial control where low power, touch interface, and functional safety are critical.
For engineers reviewing the R7FA2E1A93CFL#AA0 datasheet, R7FA2E1A93CFL#AA0 pinout, R7FA2E1A93CFL#AA0 application, or R7FA2E1A93CFL#AA0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 48-pin LQFP package with 37 I/O pins, -40°C to +105°C industrial temperature grade, CTSU2-based touch sensing capability, and dual watchdog timers (WDT/IWDT) for fail-safe operation.
Technical Context
The R7FA2E1A93CFL#AA0 implements the Armv8-M architecture with Memory Protection Unit (MPU) supporting 8 regions, enabling secure partitioning of firmware and data. Its system-level timing relies on multiple clock sources including HOCO (48 MHz), SOSC (32.768 kHz), and IWDT-dedicated 15-kHz oscillator for independent fault recovery.
Peripheral integration centers on event-driven efficiency: the Event Link Controller (ELC) enables direct hardware-to-hardware triggering without CPU intervention, while the Data Transfer Controller (DTC) offloads memory transfers during interrupt servicing. Safety features include SRAM parity checking, flash area protection, and ADC self-diagnosis.
