R5F211A4SP#U0 - 16-Bit 20MHz R8C/1A 16KB Flash MCU | Renesas | 20-LSSOP
MPN: R5F211A4SP#U0 ✓ פעילR5F211A4SP#U0 סקירה
A single-chip microcomputer, or MCU, is a complete computing element that integrates a CPU core, program memory, data memory, I/O ports, timers and clock circuitry on one die. An MCU sits in the hierarchy above a general microprocessor but below a microcomputer system: MCU -> microcomputer -> embedded controller -> semiconductor. Renesas positions the R8C/1A group for designs that have already adopted it and recommends the RL78/G12 group for new projects, yet the R8C remains a proven fit for cost-sensitive, low-power embedded control products.
Key features of the R5F211A4SP include a 20 MHz maximum operating frequency, 16 KB of flash program memory, 1 KB of internal RAM, 13 I/O lines and a 3/5 V operating supply. The R8C/Tiny core delivers 16-bit instruction execution with an 8-bit-oriented internal data path, which keeps code density high while retaining a small die and low system cost.
The device is fabricated on a high-performance silicon gate CMOS process and is packaged as a 20-pin molded-plastic LSSOP. The documented difference between the R8C/1A group and the R8C/1B group is the presence or absence of data flash ROM; the R5F211A4SP sits in the 1A group, which retains data flash for parameter storage and calibration data.
Typical applications include small appliance controllers, sensor and meter front-ends, industrial sensor modules, motor and stepper sequencing, simple HMI panels and low-power battery-operated instruments where a 20-pin footprint, 16 KB of flash and 13 I/O pins match the bill of materials almost exactly.
When designing around this part, verify the internal oscillator tolerance and the peripheral allocation against the target application, and confirm the 20-LSSOP land pattern on your PCB. Because the R8C/1A family is maintained for existing adopters rather than new platforms, confirm long-term availability and consider the RL78/G12 family for designs started from scratch.

יישומים טיפוסיים
R5F211A4SP#U0 מתאים עבור 6 יישוםs: Industrial Sensor and Meter Front-End, Small Appliance and Kitchen Equipment Control, Battery-Powered Portable Instrument, LED Lighting and Display Sequencing, Simple Motor and Actuator Sequencer, IoT Sensor Node with Local Pre-Processing.
Industrial Sensor and Meter Front-End
The R5F211A4SP#U0 suits measurement modules that must digitize a sensor, apply calibration and drive a display or a serial interface. With 16 KB (16K x 8) of program flash you can hold acquisition routines, a linearization table and a communications stack without external memory, while the 13 general-purpose I/O lines cover discrete inputs, alarm outputs and an LCD segment driver. The R8C/Tiny Series 16-bit core executes the arithmetic needed for calibration maths quickly at 20 MHz, and the 3/5 V supply class means the same board can run from a 5 V rail or a regulated 3.3 V node. Data flash in the R8C/1A group holds field-calibration constants without consuming RAM.
מומלץ
Small Appliance and Kitchen Equipment Control
Compact whitegoods and kitchen appliances need a controller that sequences relays, drives indicators and reads a keypad without a large silicon footprint. The R5F211A4SP#U0 handles this in a 20-LSSOP package that fits tight control boards, and its 16 KB of flash holds a motor sequence table, a temperature profile and a small state machine. The 13 I/O ports are enough for a keypad matrix, a seven-segment or LED bar indicator and a handful of triac or relay drive lines. At 20 MHz the core services timing-critical tasks such as zero-cross detection handling and display refresh, while the internal oscillator removes the cost and layout area of an external crystal.
מומלץ
Battery-Powered Portable Instrument
Handheld meters, data loggers and field test gear operate from limited energy budgets, and the R5F211A4SP#U0 provides a straightforward way to manage that budget. The 3/5 V operating class works with a single-cell-derived 3 V rail or a 5 V pump-up supply, and the R8C/Tiny core delivers 16-bit performance without the clock overhead of larger cores. The 1 KB (1K x 8) of RAM holds measurement buffers and log records, and the 16 KB of flash stores the calibration tables and menu code. Data flash ROM in the R8C/1A group lets the instrument retain user settings and instrument offsets across power cycles, which avoids re-entering configuration after every battery change.
מומלץ
LED Lighting and Display Sequencing
LED sign controllers, architectural lighting hubs and display sequencers need deterministic timing across many channels. The R5F211A4SP#U0 drives LED patterns from timer and interrupt routines at 20 MHz, with the 13 I/O ports multiplexed to LED rows and columns or used to drive a small number of constant-current channels directly. The 16 KB of program flash comfortably stores multiple animation tables and a scheduler, and the R8C/1A data flash holds scene settings so lighting presets survive a power cycle. Because the part runs from 3/5 V, it can be placed next to the LED driver stage without a separate level translator, which simplifies the board and reduces the component count in multi-channel fixtures.
מומלץ
Simple Motor and Actuator Sequencer
Stepper indexers, valve controllers and small linear actuators need accurate step timing plus a modest amount of supervisory logic, which the R5F211A4SP#U0 provides without a large MCU. The 20 MHz R8C/Tiny core generates step and direction timing from timer interrupts with margin for a host command interface, and 13 I/O ports cover step, direction, home limit, enable and fault signalling. The 16 KB of flash holds the motion profile tables and the host protocol, while 1 KB of RAM covers the position counter and status buffer. The 20-LSSOP package keeps the controller small enough to sit beside the driver stage, and the 3/5 V supply class suits both 5 V logic and 3.3 V system rails.
מומלץ
IoT Sensor Node with Local Pre-Processing
A compact IoT sensor node that filters, counts and forwards local events benefits from an MCU that can wake, process and sleep without a large memory system. The R5F211A4SP#U0 handles edge pre-processing such as debouncing, thresholding and simple aggregation before data leaves the node, and its 16 KB of flash holds the radio-side state machine and a small protocol stack. The 13 I/O ports connect to the sensor bus, status indicator and a wake or pairing button, and the 3/5 V supply class fits both coin-cell-derived and USB-derived rails. The R8C/1A data flash retains network credentials and calibration data, so the node does not need to re-provision after a power interruption.

הערות תכנון
The R5F211A4SP#U0 uses a 20-pin LSSOP with a 0.173 in (4.40 mm) body width and a lead pitch that differs from standard 0.6 mm SSOP parts in some families, so copy the land pattern directly from the Renesas package drawing rather than from a generic library symbol. Keep the oscillator and reset nets short, place the decoupling capacitor at the supply pins with a short ground return, and route the 13 I/O lines away from the clock region to avoid coupling noise into the timer-driven functions.
Because the part is specified for 3/5 V operation, the supply tolerance must be checked against the electrical characteristics table in the manufacturer datasheet for both the 3 V and 5 V cases. Estimated: with a 5.0 V rail and an average operating current of 5 mA, dissipation is about 25 mW, so a standard 0805 or 0603 decoupling network with 0.1 uF plus 1 uF ceramic is adequate. Do not use the 3 V figures for a 5 V design without re-checking the input range.
The most common errors on this family are ordering the wrong packing suffix for the assembly line, assuming 16 KB of flash covers the bootloader plus application, and overlooking that the R8C/1A group carries data flash ROM while the R8C/1B group does not. Confirm the #U0 packing code, budget flash for the startup and in-application programming routines, and verify the flash endurance requirements against your parameter-update rate before committing to a design.
Keep the 1 KB RAM-resident working set small and place frequently accessed data structures away from stack growth regions. When driving relays, solenoids or LED strings from the I/O pins, route the drive currents through the connector side of the board and keep the MCU ground reference in a quiet region, adding bulk bulk capacitance at the connector to keep switching transients from coupling back into the 3/5 V rail that feeds the R5F211A4SP#U0.
מידע על תאימות
The part is listed as Pb-free by the manufacturer and by distributors, and the R5F211A4SP datasheet carries a RoHS statement in its quality and environmental information section. RoHS, REACH, halogen-free and conflict-minerals status are recorded as unknown because no explicit per-attribute statement was available for this ordering code.
