Overview
Description
RL78/G10 microcontrollers realize the industry's lowest level of consumption current (CPU: 46 μA/MHz, standby (STOP): 560 nA). With an on-chip oscillator, A/D converter, comparator, and more, and a 10/16-pin package lineup, they support more compact system size. These low pin count microcontrollers are perfect for small consumer electronics.
Features
- CPU: RL78 core, Max. 20MHz
- Voltage: 2V to 5.5V
- Package: 64-pin HTFQFP, 10-pin LSSOP, 16-pin SSOP
- Memory: SRAM Max. 0.5KB, Program Flash Max. 4KB
- Timer: 16-bit Timer (ch) x 4, 8-bit Timer (ch) x 4, Watchdog Timer (ch) x 1, 12-bit Interval Timer x 1 ch
- PWM: PWM Output x 3
- Analog function: 10-bit A/D Converter (ch) x 8
- On-chip Oscillator Freq. (MHz): High-Speed: 20, 10. 5, 2.5 1.25MHz Low-speed: 15kHz
- Others: Power-On Reset
