Product details

What the 20 MHz core and 128 KB Flash mean for your BOM

The 20 MHz clock is the sweet spot for battery-operated instrumentation and portable medical devices: it delivers enough throughput for 12-bit ADC conversions at tens of kSPS and USB full-speed communication while keeping dynamic current low enough that a CR2032 coin cell can power the system for months in sleep mode.

It is current-production from Texas Instruments, available through independent distribution for both prototype quantities and production volumes.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to MSP430F5636IPZR in this family?

The MSP430F5636IPZR shares its 100-LQFP footprint and pinout with other MSP430F5xx devices such as the MSP430F5638IPZR (256 KB Flash) and MSP430F5635IPZR (96 KB Flash). These are direct drop-in replacements for memory scaling without board respin.

What is MSP430F5636IPZR's listed speed on this component line?

The core processor runs at 20 MHz. This is the maximum CPU clock for the MSP430 CPUXV2 core in this device, suitable for real-time control loops and USB full-speed communication.
