16-bit MCU with 25 MHz core and 128 KB Flash — what this part is
The device also carries a 10-channel 10-bit A/D converter and an internal oscillator.
Obsolete — sourcing through independent distribution
The MSP430F5253IZQER carries an Obsolete lifecycle status per the manufacturer. This means Texas Instruments no longer produces this device, and no last-time-buy window remains open. For BOM lines that require this exact order code, procurement must turn to independent distribution channels.
Package and temperature grade — design constraints
The 80-ball BGA MICROSTAR JUNIOR (5x5 mm) package demands careful PCB layout and rework capability.
