The MSP430 CPUXV2 core runs at 25 MHz, which is sufficient for real-time polyphase metering calculations and communication protocol handling without an external co-processor.
No official pin-compatible successor or second-source alternate is listed in the available records. A board redesign would be required to migrate to a different MSP430F6xx variant or a newer metering MCU family.
