Digital Control Meets Intelligent Analog to Streamline Design

Whether it’s used as an initial introduction into embedded development, the main controller of a connected application or as an attach component to offload tasks from a larger system, the role of the 8-bit microcontroller (MCU) continues to expand. While inherently simple to understand and implement, additional hardware and software tools, such as Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs), Intelligent Analog and MPLAB® Code Configurator, enable greater processing power while decreasing the amount of code, power consumption and design effort needed to get to market quickly.

The MSP430 never dies

The MSP430 never dies

Texas Instruments’ MSP430 microcontroller has a huge fanbase and thousands of students literally grew up with it thanks to even more free development kits pumped into the market by TI. The MSP430FR2000 and MSP430FR21xx devices form a new branch of the vast MSP430 family. They are ultra-low-power MCUs with memory sizes from 0.5 KB to 4 KB of FRAM unified memory with several package options including a small 3-mm×3-mm VQFN package. The architecture, FRAM, and integrated peripherals, combined with extensive low-power modes, are optimized says TI to achieve extended battery life in portable, battery-powered sensing applications. In good educational fashion the MSP430FR2000 and MSP430FR21xx devices offer a migration path for 8-bit designs to gain additional features and functionality from peripheral integration and the data-logging and low-power benefits of FRAM. Additionally, existing designs using MSP430G2x MCUs can migrate to the MSP430FR2000 and MSP430F21xx family to increase performanc
