The MSP430 ultra-low-power (ULP) 128 KB FRAM platform combines uniquely embedded FRAM and a holistic ultra-low-power system architecture, allowing innovators to increase performance at lowered energy budgets.
FRAM technology combines the speed, flexibility, and endurance of 2 KB SRAM with the stability and reliability of flash at much lower power. The MSP430 ULP FRAM portfolio consists of a diverse set of devices that feature FRAM, the ULP 16-bit MSP430 CPU, and intelligent peripherals targeted for various applications. The ULP architecture showcases seven low-power modes, which are optimized to achieve extended battery life in energy-challenged applications. MSP430 has a wide supply voltage range of 1.8 to 3.6 V and intelligent digital peripherals. The platform’s high-performance analog offers extended scan interface for background water, heat, and gas volume measurement. MSP430 has multifunction input and output ports and 83 IO. It features code security and encryption, as well as enhanced serial communication. The platform’s flexible clock system includes fixed-frequency DCP with 10 selectable factory-trimmed frequencies and 32-kHz crystals. Development tools and software, such as EnergyTrace++ Technology, also come with the MSP430. Potential applications range from heat and water meters to data logging and portable medical meters.
