TIMSP430F1611IRTDT
Overview
The MSP430F1611IRTDT is a 16-bit RISC microcontroller from Texas Instruments designed for ultra-low-power sensing and measurement applications. It features a rich analog peripheral set including an 8-channel 12-bit ADC and dual 12-bit DACs, supported by a 3-channel DMA controller that enables data transfer without CPU intervention. Operating at up to 8MHz, it balances processing capability with a standby current consumption as low as 1.1 microamps.
Why Choose This Part
The primary advantage is the integration of high-performance analog blocks and a 3-channel DMA, which allows for complex signal processing while the CPU remains in low-power modes. It offers a wide supply voltage range of 1.8V to 3.6V and a very low shutdown current of 0.2 microamps, making it ideal for energy-harvesting and long-term battery applications.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Development is typically performed using Code Composer Studio (CCS) or IAR Embedded Workbench for MSP430. For hardware evaluation, the MSP-TS430PM64 target board can be used with an MSP-FET Flash Emulation Tool for real-time debugging and programming via the JTAG or Spy-Bi-Wire interfaces.
