16-bit MSP430 with 48 KB Flash — what this MCU carries
The MSP430F2481TRGCR: 16-bit ultralow-power microcontroller from the MSP430F2xx family. Runs at 16 MHz, with 48 KB Flash, 256 B information memory, and 4 KB RAM. Specified for -40 to 105 °C.
EOL hot — last-time-buy window is open
The MSP430F2481TRGCR carries an EOL hot lifecycle stage. Texas Instruments has announced end-of-life for this device; the last-time-buy order window is active but closing. If the design cannot migrate to a newer MSP430F2xx or MSP430F5xx variant, the sourcing strategy is a one-time buy against the remaining LTBT window, with the balance covered through independent distribution channels.
48 I/O and mixed-protocol connectivity
With 48 GPIOs and peripherals including I²C, SPI, UART, and LIN, this MCU can bridge a Modbus RTU gateway, SPI temperature sensor, and I²C EEPROM.
