Overview

The MSP430I2021TRHBR is a specialized 16-bit microcontroller from Texas Instruments featuring two integrated 24-bit sigma-delta analog-to-digital converters designed for high-precision measurement. Operating at up to 16.384 MHz, this MCU integrates 32KB of flash and 2KB of RAM in a compact 32-VQFN package. It is engineered specifically for applications requiring accurate monitoring of current and voltage in power monitoring or industrial sensing environments.

Why Choose This Part

The primary advantage is the integration of high-performance 24-bit sigma-delta ADCs within a standard low-power MCU, eliminating the need for external high-resolution converters. It supports multiple low-power modes (LPM0-LPM4.5) and operates reliably in harsh industrial environments with a temperature range of -40C to +105C.

Applications

Sub-metering
Utilizes the dual 24-bit ADCs for simultaneous high-precision measurement of voltage and current in residential or industrial energy meters.
Industrial Power Monitoring
Monitors power quality and energy consumption in motor drives and heavy machinery with high resolution.
Precision Sensor Interfacing
Acts as an analog front-end for sensors requiring high dynamic range and low noise floor measurement.

Getting Started

Developers can use the TI Code Composer Studio (CCS) or IAR Embedded Workbench for development. Hardware evaluation is best performed using the MSP-FET Flash Emulation Tool for debugging via JTAG, and reference designs like the TI TIDM-SERVER-PWR-MON provide a foundation for energy measurement code.
