The Texas Instruments MSP430F6458IZQWT is a 16-bit microcontroller built around the MSP430 CPUXV2 core, running at 20 MHz. On-chip peripherals include a 12-bit ADC (16 channels) and a 12-bit DAC (2 channels), plus a direct-drive LCD controller, DMA, and a brown-out reset circuit. Typical applications span industrial control panels, handheld instruments, sensor hubs, and metering equipment where low power and mixed-signal integration matter.
The CPUXV2 core runs at 20 MHz. It handles a PID loop at a few kilohertz or a Modbus RTU poll cycle.
