8 MHz MSP430 with integrated ADC and DAC — obsolete, but still in demand
The MSP430FG4617IZQW runs at 8 MHz and packs 92 KB of Flash program memory with 8 KB of RAM.
Texas Instruments no longer manufactures this specific ordering code, and no official successor has been recorded. For a production BOM that depends on this part, the path forward is either a last-time-buy from remaining channel stock or a qualified replacement. The 113-BGA Microstar Junior (7x7 mm) footprint is unique to this package variant, so a drop-in pin-compatible substitute from TI's current MSP430 portfolio is not available — any migration will require a PCB layout change and firmware port.
113-BGA Microstar Junior — footprint and assembly notes
This device is supplied in a 113-ball VFBGA package, specifically TI's Microstar Junior with a 7x7 mm body. Internal oscillator is on-chip, though an external crystal can be used for tighter timing accuracy.
