The MSP430 family of microcontrollers, as part of its broad portfolio, offers both read-only memory (ROM)-based and flash-based devices. Understanding the MSP430 flash is extremely important for efficient, robust, and reliable system design. Data retention is one of the key aspects to flash reliability. In this application report, data retention for the MSP430 flash is discussed in detail and the

Often in applications with keypads, the condition can occur where a key can be held or stuck down, causing excess current consmption and reducing the battery life of a battery-operated product. This application report shows a solution. The keypad interface in this report, based on the MSP430, draws .1uA while waiting for a key press, is completely interrupt driven requring no polling, and consum

This reference design is presented to help application designers and others who are trying to use the MSP430 in a system that requires a very low input voltage range while also maintaining high efficiency. Battery life is extended as well as a result of the low quiescent current (5 mA) and ultra-low shutdown current (5 nA) of the TPS61097-33. This particular design allows for an input voltage betw

Digital filtering can be easily accomplished on the MSP430 using efficient multiplication. The tool accompanying this document automatically converts FIR filter coefficients to MSP430 assembly code that can be used in any application. Horner’s method and CSD format is used to accomplish the efficient multiply operations. The performance of the filter on the MSP430 is shown by evaluating the gain a

The MSP430 series of microcontrollers are ideal in applications where battery life is critical. These microcontollers require only 0.1?A of current in low-power RAM retention mode; In this mode the microcontroller must have power to retain volatile memory. In some systems with charge pumps, the TPS3619 can be used to shut down the charge pump, saving system power consumption.
