Overview

Description

The RA2A2 group is a low-power microcontroller that combines a 48MHz Arm® Cortex®-M23 core and a rich set of peripheral functions. The RA2A2 MCU provides an optimized feature set suitable for a wide range of applications by supporting segment LCD and high-precision analog sensing functionalities while reducing power consumption, system cost, and overall footprint. Furthermore, the RA2A2's dual bank flash and security features make firmware updates easy and increase system reliability.

Features

  • 48MHz Arm Cortex-M23 core
  • 512KB flash memory (dual bank) and 48KB SRAM
  • 8KB data flash memory (100,000 program/erase (P/E) cycles)
  • 64-pin, 80-pin, and 100-pin LFQFP package options
  • 24-bit Sigma-Delta A/D converter, 12-bit A/D converter and temperature sensor
  • 16-bit general-purpose timers, 32-bit and 16-bit low-power AGT timers, and independent power supply RTC
  • SCI (UART, Simple SPI, Simple I2C), SPI and I2C bus
  • Segment LCD controller (8com x 38seg)
  • Security functions including AES, Secure MPU, Flash Access Window, TRNG
