Product details

25 MHz MSP430 CPUXV2 core with 128 KB flash

The MSP430F5252IRGCT: The 128 KB on-chip flash and 16 KB RAM provide enough program and data space for sensor fusion, motor control loops, or communication protocol stacks that don't need external memory. With 53 general-purpose I/O pins, this MCU can interface to a keypad matrix, a parallel LCD, or a bank of discrete sensors without an external port expander. The 64-VFQFN package with exposed pad (9×9 mm) keeps the board footprint compact while the pad aids thermal transfer to the PCB ground plane.

Serial connectivity and on-chip peripherals for real-time control

The DMA controller moves data between peripherals and memory without CPU intervention, freeing the core for control arithmetic. On-chip peripherals include a PWM module for waveform generation, a watchdog timer, brown-out reset, and power-on reset.

Industrial temperature range and active lifecycle

ROHS3 compliant, it meets EU exemption-free requirements for new equipment placed on the market.

Frequently asked questions

What is the MSP430F5252IRGCT's CPU speed and memory?

The CPU runs at 25 MHz with a 16-bit MSP430 CPUXV2 core. Program memory is 128 KB of flash, and RAM is 16 KB. This combination handles moderate-complexity control firmware without external memory.

Can the MSP430F5252IRGCT replace the F280041PZQR?

No, these are not drop-in replacements. The F280041PZQR uses a 32-bit C28x core at 100 MHz, has different pinout and supply voltage (1.14 V core), and is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive temperature. The MSP430F5252IRGCT is a 16-bit industrial MCU in a different architecture family.

What compliance documentation does Texas Instruments provide for the MSP430F5252IRGCT?

The device is ROHS3 compliant. Standard Texas Instruments documentation includes the datasheet, application notes, and errata sheets available from the manufacturer's website. No UL or IEC certification is listed for this part.
