That is enough for a bootloader plus a small state machine, but not for a full protocol stack or lookup table. The 128 x 8 SRAM (128 bytes) sets a tight ceiling on stack depth and interrupt nesting — a single deep ISR chain or a moderate-sized local array can overflow it. Any firmware project targeting this part needs a memory map drawn before the first line of C. ## Supply and temperature range Brown-out detection and POR are on-chip, which simplifies the reset circuit and improves reliability in noisy or battery-powered environments. Housed in a 14-TSSOP (4.40 mm body width) with a surface-mount footprint. It is a single-row package with no exposed thermal pad, so all heat dissipates through the leads and the PCB copper. The 14-pin count limits I/O to 10, but that is sufficient for a UART, a couple of ADC inputs (if the part had ADC — this variant does not), or a few GPIOs for LED/switch control. TI lists the MSP430G2201IPW14R as Active. For a production BOM, this part carries no imminent supply risk.","metaTitle":"TI MSP430G2201IPW14R 16-Bit MCU, 2KB Flash, 128B RAM","metaDescription":"Texas Instruments MSP430G2201IPW14R 16-bit MCU, 16MHz core, 2KB Flash, 128B RAM, 10 I/O, PWM, BOD, -40°C to 85°C, 14-TSSOP.","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":"MSP430G2xx","Package":"Tape & Reel (TR); Cut Tape (CT)","RAM Size":"128 x 8","Core Size":"16-Bit","EEPROM Size":"-","Peripherals":"Brown-out Detect/Reset, POR, PWM, WDT","Connectivity":"-","Mounting Type":"Surface Mount","Number of I/O":"10","Core Processor":"MSP430 CPU16","Package / Case":"14-TSSOP (0.173\\\", 4.40mm Width)","Product Status":"Active","Data Converters":"-","Oscillator Type":"Internal","lifecycle_stage":"eol_hot","Base Product Number":"MSP430G2201","Program Memory Size":"2KB (2K x 8)","Program Memory Type":"FLASH","Operating Temperature":"-40°C~85°C(TA)","Supplier Device Package":"14-TSSOP","Voltage - Supply (Vcc/Vdd)":"1.8V ~ 3.6V"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$0.8359","priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icboms.com/937fce24b59bfba17c8b94ce6eb9d6e9.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icboms.com/api/mcp/products/MSP430G2201IPW14R/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Does MSP430G2201IPW14R have PWM and brown-out detection?","answer":"Yes. The peripheral set includes a brown-out detect/reset circuit, a power-on reset (POR), a PWM timer, and a watchdog timer (WDT) — all integrated on-chip. No external supervisor IC is needed for basic reset management."},{"question":"Is MSP430G2201IPW14R RoHS compliant and lead-free?","answer":"The 14-TSSOP package (MSP430G2201IPW14R) is TI's standard Green/RoHS-compliant suffix. The 'R' at the end of the order code indicates tape-and-reel packaging, not a lead-free flag, but TI's MSP430G2xx devices in this package are manufactured with NiPdAu (or similar) lead-free plating per RoHS requirements."},{"question":"What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to MSP430G2201IPW14R in this component family?","answer":"Within the MSP430G2xx series, the MSP430G2201 is a base part number with 2 KB Flash and 128 B RAM. A pin-compatible step-up would be the MSP430G2231 (same 14-TSSOP package, same pinout) which adds a 10-bit ADC and a larger Flash option (2 KB or 4 KB depending on variant). Any swap requires checking the exact memory and peripheral differences against the firmware requirements."},{"question":"What is MSP430G2201IPW14R's listed speed (16 MHz) on this component line?","answer":"The MSP430 CPU16 core is rated for 16 MHz maximum operating frequency. At that speed, the internal Flash requires zero wait states (the MSP430G2xx architecture uses a single-cycle Flash controller up to 16 MHz). The internal oscillator can be calibrated to ±1% accuracy, which is sufficient for UART baud-rate generation without an external crystal."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icboms.com/texas-instruments/MSP430G2201IPW14R","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icboms.com/llms.txt","source":"ICBOMS","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"ICBOMS\" and link https://icboms.com/texas-instruments/MSP430G2201IPW14R when reusing this data.
