The Texas Instruments MSP430FR573x family of ultra-low-power microcontrollers consists of multiple devices that feature embedded FRAM nonvolatile memory, ultra-low-power 16-bit MSP430 CPU, and different peripherals targeted for various applications.
The architecture, FRAM, and peripherals, combined with seven low-power modes, are optimized to achieve extended battery life in portable and wireless sensing applications. FRAM is a new nonvolatile memory that combines the speed, flexibility, and endurance of SRAM with the stability and reliability of flash, all at lower total power consumption. Peripherals include a 10-bit ADC; a 16-channel comparator with voltage reference generation and hysteresis capabilities; three enhanced serial channels capable of I2C, SPI, or UART protocols; an internal DMA; a hardware multiplier; an RTC; five 16-bit timers; and digital I/Os. MSP430FR5739 comes with an embedded microcontroller, which as 16-bit RISC architecture up to 24-MHz clock and a supply range of 2-3.6 V. It has optimized ultra-low power modes and intelligent digital peripherals. The device also features enhanced serial communication and a power management system with fully integrated LDO. Applications for the device include home automation, security, sensor management, and data acquisition.
