The MSP430FR6043 MCU uses FRAM technology, which combines the best features of flash and RAM. FRAM offers the nonvolatile nature of flash together with fast and low-power writes, a write endurance of 1015 cycles, resistance to radiation and electromagnetic fields, and unmatched flexibility.
This use of this technology results in an application that writes and logs data more efficiently than its flash-based counterparts.
The application provided in this software package uses FRAM to store several nonvolatile variables, such as the configuration received from the GUI. This storage lets users reconfigure the device on-the-fly and keeps the configuration after subsequent power cycles.
Developers of metering applications can use FRAM to implement many additional features including:
