With 53 general-purpose I/O pins, this MCU can interface to a keypad matrix, a parallel LCD, or a bank of discrete sensors without an external port expander. The 64-VFQFN package with exposed pad (9×9 mm) keeps the board footprint compact while the pad aids thermal transfer to the PCB ground plane. ## Serial connectivity and on-chip peripherals for real-time control The DMA controller moves data between peripherals and memory without CPU intervention, freeing the core for control arithmetic. On-chip peripherals include a PWM module for waveform generation, a watchdog timer, brown-out reset, and power-on reset. ## Industrial temperature range and active lifecycle ROHS3 compliant, it meets EU exemption-free requirements for new equipment placed on the market.","metaTitle":"Texas Instruments MSP430F5252IRGCT MCU, 16-bit, 25 MHz","metaDescription":"Texas Instruments MSP430F5252IRGCT 16-bit MCU, 25 MHz CPU, 128 KB flash, 16 KB RAM, 53 I/O, I²C/SPI/UART, -40 to 85°C, 64-VFQFN.
