The purpose of this group is to foster exchange of information on the Texas Instruments MSP430 family of microcontrollers and related tools. Everyone welcome, all levels of familiarity/expertise.

Current supply in LPM3 - rene - Oct 23 10:36:57 2009

CPU: MSP430F149

My device must run with a 3.68 MHz xtal on XT1
because I want 57600 baud rate.

Have you a solution with standard xtal at 32.768 kHz for this baud rate

How I can evaluate the standby current on LPM3 mode with a 3.68 MHz xtal.

Thank

You can simply turn on the 3.68 MHz xtal on XT1, go to LPM3, and measure the current consumption.

To reduce the current, you could use a watch xtal instead. The firmware should adjust the DCO once in a while so that its frequency is 225 times that of the watch xtal. 225*32769=7372800 which is 2*3.6864 MHz
