RF connectivity meets ultra-low power
New RF430F5978 MCU adds a 3D LF (134.2kHZ) wake-up trigger and transponder interface to TI’s CC430 secure ultra-low-power MCU with sub-1GHz transceiver and a programmable MSP430™ MCU core. The LF wake-up function allows a system to be in a low power state until an LF trigger is received. The LF transponder can even function without a battery supply.
