The MSP430FR2633 is a 16-bit microcontroller with programmable ferroelectric memory (FRAM) and CapTIvate capacitive sensing technology. CapTIvate technology is a flexible and robust capacitive sensing technology for user interface applications such as buttons, sliders, wheels, and proximity sensors.
The CAPTIVATE-PGMR board is used to program and debug the MSP430FR2633 target MCU. It is included in the CAPT-MSP-FR2633 development kit or can be ordered separately. For this reference design, the CAPTIVATE-PGMR is needed only to initially program the MSP430FR2633 target MCU with the demonstration firmware. It is not needed for the demonstration.
