Texas Instruments has marked the MSP430F2416TZQW as Obsolete.
16MHz MSP430 core with 92KB Flash
The MSP430F2416TZQW is a 16-bit microcontroller built around the MSP430 CPU16 core, clocked at 16 MHz. Program memory is Flash type, supporting in-system reprogramming for field firmware updates. The 64 I/O lines give flexibility for parallel sensor arrays or display interfaces.
Integrated peripherals include a brown-out detect/reset, DMA controller, POR, PWM, and watchdog timer — the brown-out reset is essential for battery-powered designs where supply droop is a risk. Serial connectivity covers I²C, IrDA, LINbus, SCI, SPI, and UART/USART. The LINbus interface makes this part suitable for automotive sub-bus nodes, while the IrDA port supports wireless optical links in sealed enclosures. An 8-channel, 12-bit ADC is on-chip, sufficient for monitoring analog sensor inputs like temperature, current, or position feedback without an external converter.
Package and temperature grade
Housed in a 113-VFBGA (113-BGA Microstar Junior, 7x7 mm), this is a fine-pitch BGA requiring careful PCB layout and X-ray inspection after reflow. The surface-mount package suits high-density designs where board real estate is tight.
