Overview

The MSP430F435IPZ is a 16-bit RISC microcontroller from Texas Instruments featuring an integrated LCD driver for up to 160 segments. It is designed for ultra-low power consumption, drawing as little as 1.1 uA in standby mode (LPM3) while maintaining 16KB of flash and a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter.

Why Choose This Part

The integrated LCD controller simplifies PCB design by removing the need for an external display driver. Its fast wake-up time of less than 6 us from standby allows for responsive performance in duty-cycled applications without compromising battery life.

Applications

Battery-Powered Handheld Meters
Ideal for portable devices requiring a direct LCD interface and high-resolution 12-bit ADC measurements.
Utility Metering
Suitable for electronic water or gas meters that must operate for years on a single battery using low-power standby modes.
Medical Monitoring
Used in glucose meters and digital thermometers where low current consumption and integrated display driving are critical.
