An 8-channel 12-bit ADC handles the analog front-end for battery monitoring, temperature sensing, or pressure transducer inputs without an external converter. ## 64 KB FRAM — what it changes for firmware strategy FRAM is the headline feature here: it combines the non-volatility of Flash with the write speed and endurance of SRAM. The 64 KB program memory (64K x 8) is organized as a single uniform memory space — no separate program and data Flash banks to manage. Write endurance is effectively unlimited at 10^15 cycles, compared to the 10,000-cycle typical of embedded Flash. That means the firmware can treat the FRAM as a scratchpad for calibration constants, event logs, or OTA staging without wear-leveling logic. The erase-before-write penalty of Flash is absent; a single-cycle write at bus speed is the norm. For a BOM decision, this often eliminates the external serial EEPROM or FRAM chip that would otherwise sit next to a Flash-based MCU. The 2K x 8 RAM handles stack and volatile data; the FRAM handles persistent storage at the same access speed. ## LCD controller and 52 I/O — peripheral fit for panel designs The on-chip LCD driver supports up to 320 segments with contrast control and charge-pump generation, so it drives a glass LCD panel directly from the MCU pins. This peripheral is the main reason to pick the FR6922 over the smaller FRAM MSP430s that lack the LCD block. The 52 I/O count, in the 64-VQFN package, leaves enough pins for a parallel LCD data bus, keypad matrix, and external sensor interrupts while the serial interfaces handle UART debug and SPI to an RF module. The brown-out detect and POR circuits are integrated, so the supply supervisor is internal — one less external component on the board. The internal oscillator runs at 16 MHz with no external crystal needed for the core clock, though the timer and RTC accuracy will depend on the internal RC tolerance. The MSP430FR6922IRGCR comes in a 64-VFQFN exposed-pad package (supplier device package 64-VQFN 9x9 mm). The base product number MSP430FR6922 covers the full family; the IRGCR suffix denotes the specific temperature range and package variant. For dual-sourcing resilience, the MSP430FR6922 family includes several density and peripheral options that share the same 64-VQFN footprint, though the LCD driver and FRAM size are specific to this variant.","metaTitle":"Texas Instruments MSP430FR6922IRGCR 16-bit MCU, 64KB FRAM","metaDescription":"TI MSP430FR6922IRGCR 16-bit MCU with 64KB FRAM, 16MHz CPUXV2 core, integrated LCD driver, 8x12b ADC, 52 I/O, -40°C to 85°C.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Microcontrollers & Processors (MCU / MPU / DSP)"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Texas Instruments","Speed":"16MHz","Series":"MSP430™ FRAM","Package":"Tape & Reel (TR); Cut Tape (CT)","RAM Size":"2K x 8","Core Size":"16-Bit","EEPROM Size":"-","Peripherals":"Brown-out Detect/Reset, DMA, LCD, POR, PWM, WDT","Connectivity":"I²C, IrDA, SCI, SPI, UART/USART","Mounting Type":"Surface Mount","Number of I/O":"52","Core Processor":"MSP430 CPUXV2","Package / Case":"64-VFQFN Exposed Pad","Product Status":"Active","Data Converters":"A/D 8x12b","Oscillator Type":"Internal","lifecycle_stage":"eol_hot","Base Product Number":"MSP430FR6922","Program Memory Size":"64KB (64K x 8)","Program Memory Type":"FRAM","Operating Temperature":"-40°C~85°C(TA)","Supplier Device Package":"64-VQFN (9x9)","Voltage - Supply (Vcc/Vdd)":"1.8V ~ 3.6V"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$3.3277","priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icboms.com/379bdbaef1c08b290b77ed7b15d84b9f.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icboms.com/api/mcp/products/MSP430FR6922IRGCR/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the difference between MSP430FR6922IRGCR and MSP430FR6922?","answer":"MSP430FR6922 is the base product number covering the full family.
