1.1 Overview of MSP430 MCUs

The 16-bit MSP430 microcontroller (MCU) family provides affordable solutions for many applications. TI's leadership in integrated precision analog helps designers enhance system performance and reduce system costs. Designers can find a cost-effective MCU within the broad portfolio of MSP430 MCUs, with over 2000 devices for virtually any need. Designers can get started quickly and reduce time to market with our simplified tools, software, and best-in-class support. At present, there are two main series based on the type of nonvolatile memory (NVM)—the Flash families and the FRAM families. The FRAM MCUs consume lower power and combine the characteristics of Flash and RAM. The Flash series includes MSP430x1xx, MSP430x2xx, MSP430x4xx, MSP430x5xx and MSP430x6xx. The FRAM series includes MSP430FR2xx, MSP430FR4xx, MSP430FR5xx, and MSP430FR6xx. Among them, MSP430x5xx/6xx and MSP430FR5xx/6xx are higher and the internal peripherals are more abundant.

The internal resources of most MSP430 families are shown in Table 1-1.
