16-bit MSP430 core with 16 MHz throughput
Peripherals include a brown-out detect and reset, power-on reset, PWM channels, and a watchdog timer.
The 40-VFQFN package with exposed pad (6x6 mm body) helps pull heat into the PCB ground plane — a via stitch under the pad is recommended for continuous operation above 85°C. The slope A/D converter is a low-pin-count alternative to a full SAR ADC, suited for battery-voltage or temperature monitoring.
