Connectivity and I/O count for metering front ends
The I/O count also supports driving a segmented LCD directly — the integrated LCD controller handles the segment mapping, saving a separate display driver IC.
Package and mounting — 128-LQFP with 20x14 mm body
Housed in a 128-pin LQFP (supplier package 128-LQFP 20x14), the MSP430F6748IPEU is a surface-mount device. The 0.4 mm pitch requires careful solder-paste stencil design for consistent fillet formation, but the exposed pad is not present — all dissipation goes through the leads, so keep the ambient airflow adequate if running the core and ADC continuously at 85°C.
The base product number MSP430F6748 is the same die; the IPEU suffix denotes the 128-LQFP package and the industrial temperature grade.
