The Texas Instruments MSP430 family of low-power microcontrollers consists of several devices that feature different sets of peripherals targeted for various applications.
The architecture, combined with extensive low-power modes, is optimized to achieve extended battery life in portable measurement applications. The device features a powerful 16-bit RISC CPU, 16-bit registers, and constant generators that contribute to maximum code efficiency. It also has 16 KB FRAM, 2 KB SRAM, 60 IO, 10 ch ADC10, LCD, and IR Logic. The digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) allows the device to wake up from low-power modes to active mode in less than 10 µs. MSP430FR4133 may be used for the following applications: A/C remote controls, water metering, heat metering, weigh scales, in-building thermostats, low-power display drivers, and blood glucose metering. It has an embedded microcontroller with 16-bit RISC architecture and up to 16 MHz. The supply ranges from 1.8 to 3.6 V. At 3 V, the active mode is 126 µA/MHz, while the standby mode is 770 nA with Real-Time Clock counter. Included FRAM is up to 15.5KB of nonvolatile memory, and there is a 1015 write cycle endurance. Intelligent digital peripherals and enhanced serial communications are also featured.
