Product details
Overview
UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX from Renesas Electronics is a 16-bit single-chip microcontroller in the 78K0R/KE3 family, featuring 128 KB on-chip Flash memory, 8 KB RAM, and integrated peripherals including 10-bit ADC (16 channels), UART, I²C, and timer modules. It operates at up to 20 MHz with supply voltage range 2.7–5.5 V and targets embedded control in industrial sensors and motor drive interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX datasheet, UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX pinout, UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX application, or UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX equivalent, key selection criteria include Flash endurance (100,000 write/erase cycles), operating temperature range (−40°C to +85°C), and QFP-100 package compatibility with legacy 78K0R designs.
Technical Context
The UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX implements the 78K0R CPU core with 16-bit architecture, supporting both standard and expanded instruction sets. It integrates a 10-bit successive-approximation ADC with sample-and-hold and programmable conversion timing, alongside three 16-bit timer arrays (TAU) with PWM output capability and input capture functionality.
On-chip peripheral control includes dual UARTs with automatic baud-rate detection, an I²C-compatible serial interface supporting master/slave modes, and a watchdog timer with independent clock source. Memory protection is enforced via a ROM-based boot loader and flash lock bits preventing unauthorized read/write access.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 16-bit microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| R5F100PLAFB#30 | RL78/G13 core, 128 KB Flash, 12 KB RAM, lower active current (120 μA/MHz) | Optimized for ultra-low-power battery operation; lacks dedicated TAU timer array | Select when energy efficiency outweighs deterministic PWM timing requirements |
| UPD78F1146AGK-GAK-AX | Same 78K0R/KE3 family, 96 KB Flash, identical pinout and peripheral set | Reduced code capacity limits complex protocol stacks or large lookup tables | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where 96 KB Flash suffices and footprint reuse is critical |
Compared with UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX, R5F100PLAFB#30 offers superior power efficiency but requires software adaptation for timer-dependent motor control, while UPD78F1146AGK-GAK-AX provides drop-in compatibility with 32 KB less Flash-ideal for legacy migration with minimal code changes.

Can the UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX operate from a 3.3 V supply?
Yes, the UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX supports a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V, making it fully compatible with standard 3.3 V logic systems. At 3.3 V, the device maintains full 20 MHz operation and all peripheral functionality-including ADC accuracy, UART timing, and I²C bus compliance-as specified in the official Renesas electrical characteristics table for UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX.
Is the UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX pin-compatible with other 78K0R/KE3 devices?
Yes, the UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX shares identical pinout and package (100-pin LQFP) with other members of the 78K0R/KE3 family including UPD78F1142AGK-GAK-AX through UPD78F1146AGK-GAK-AX. This allows direct PCB footprint reuse and simplifies migration between variants-though users must verify Flash size, RAM allocation, and peripheral enablement in firmware when substituting UPD78F1155AGK-GAK-AX.
