TIMSP430F5308IPTR
Overview
The MSP430F5308IPTR is a high-performance, ultra-low-power 16-bit microcontroller featuring a 25MHz CPUXV2 RISC core with 16KB of Flash and 6KB of RAM. It integrates an internal LDO for supply voltage management and features a sophisticated clocking system with FLL stabilization, making it ideal for battery-operated systems requiring precise timing. The device includes a 10-bit 8-channel ADC and a 3-channel DMA to handle data movement without CPU intervention.
Why Choose This Part
The part excels in power efficiency, consuming only 195 microamps per MHz in active mode and as low as 0.18 microamps in shutdown. The inclusion of a 32-bit hardware multiplier and a 3-channel DMA provides significant processing throughput that is uncommon for such a low-power envelope. Its integrated power management features, including an LDO and brown-out protection, simplify the external BOM for compact designs.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Developers can use the MSP-TS430PT48 target socket board or the MSP-FET Flash Emulation Tool for debugging and programming via JTAG or Spy-Bi-Wire. Software development is supported by Code Composer Studio (CCS) and IAR Embedded Workbench, which provide specialized compilers for the CPUXV2 architecture. Texas Instruments' MSP430Ware provides comprehensive driver libraries and code examples to initialize the FLL and peripherals.
