MSP430G2955IDA38R

The Texas Instruments MSP430G2955IDA38R is a versatile 16-bit microcontroller based on the MSP430 CPU16 core, operating at frequencies up to 16MHz. It offers 56KB of program memory (FLASH) and 4KB of RAM, making it suitable for a wide range of embedded applications.

This MCU includes a 10-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) with 12 channels, an on-chip comparator, and various communication interfaces including I2C, SPI, UART/USART, and IrDA. It supports multiple power-saving modes, with active power consumption as low as 250 µA at 1 MHz and 2.2 V, and standby mode at 0.7 µA.

The device is available in a 38-TSSOP package and supports surface mount installation. It operates within a voltage range of 1.8V to 3.6V and has an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. Peripherals include a watchdog timer, real-time clock, and Spy-bi-wire for programming.

Key features include its low power consumption, fast wake-up time from standby mode (less than 1 µs), and a 16-bit RISC architecture with a 62.5 ns instruction cycle time. The MSP430G2955IDA38R is designed for cost-optimized embedded systems requiring efficient processing and low power operation.
