User's Guides
MSP430FR4xx and MSP430FR2xx Family User's Guide
Detailed information on the modules and peripherals available in this device family.
MSP430 FRAM Device Bootloader (BSL) User's Guide
The bootloader (BSL) provides a method to program memory during MSP430 MCU project development and updates. It can be activated by a utility that sends commands using a serial protocol. The BSL enables the user to control the activity of the MSP430 MCU and to exchange data using a personal computer or other device.
MSP430 Hardware Tools User's Guide
This manual describes the hardware of the TI MSP-FET430 Flash Emulation Tool (FET). The FET is the program development tool for the MSP430 ultra-low-power microcontroller.
Application Reports
MSP430 FRAM Technology – How To and Best Practices
FRAM is a nonvolatile memory technology that behaves similar to SRAM while enabling a whole host of new applications, but also changing the way firmware should be designed. This application report outlines the how to and best practices of using FRAM technology in MSP430 from an embedded software development perspective. It discusses how to implement a memory layout according to application-specific code, constant, data space requirements, and the use of FRAM to optimize application energy consumption.
VLO Calibration on the MSP430FR4xx and MSP430FR2xx Family
MSP430FR4xx and MSP430FR2xx (FR4xx/FR2xx) family microcontrollers (MCUs) provide various clock sources, including some high-speed high-accuracy clocks and some low-power low-system-cost clocks. Users can select the best balance of performance, power consumption, and system cost. The on-chip very low-frequency oscillator (VLO) is a clock source with 10-kHz typical frequency included in FR4xx/FR2xx family MCUs. The VLO is widely used in a range of applications because of its ultra-low power consumption.
MSP430 32-kHz Crystal Oscillators
Selection of the right crystal, correct load circuit, and proper board layout are important for a stable crystal oscillator. This application report summarizes crystal oscillator function and explains the parameters to select the correct crystal for MSP430 ultra-low-power operation. In addition, hints and examples for correct board layout are given. The document also contains detailed information on the possible oscillator tests to ensure stable oscillator operation in mass production.
MSP430 System-Level ESD Considerations
System-level ESD has become increasingly demanding with silicon technology scaling towards lower voltages and the need for designing cost-effective and ultra-low-power components. This application report addresses different ESD topics to help board designers and OEMs understand and design robust system-level designs.
