1.1 Introduction

The MSP430™ MCUs have nearly 30 years of history as TI's classic microcontroller. The latest generation introduces the MSPM0 family. MSPM0 microcontrollers (MCUs) are part of the MSP highly-integrated ultra-low-power 32-bit MCU family based on the enhanced Arm® Cortex®-M0+ 32-bit core platform. These cost-optimized MCUs offer high-performance analog peripheral integration, support extended temperature ranges, and offer small footprint packages. The TI MSPM0 family of low-power MCUs consists of devices with varying degrees of analog and digital integration allowing engineers to find the MCU that meets their project's needs. The MSPM0 MCU family combines the Arm Cortex-M0+ platform with a ultra-low-power system architecture, allowing system designers to increase performance while reducing energy consumption.

The MSPM0 MCUs offer a competitive alternative to the STM32 MCUs. This application note assists with migration from STM32 MCUs to MSPM0 MCUs by comparing device features and ecosystems.
