Product details

24 MHz 16-bit core with FRAM — the design choice for low-power mixed-signal control

What sets it apart from conventional Flash-based MCUs is its 16 KB FRAM program memory — FRAM combines the non-volatility of Flash with the write speed and endurance of SRAM, so you can treat the code space almost like data memory without worrying about 100k-cycle wear limits or slow page-erase delays. The 2K x 8 RAM handles the stack and volatile buffers; the 8-channel 12-bit SAR ADC samples at rates suitable for sensor conditioning and closed-loop control. With 28 I/O lines and I²C, SPI, IrDA, and UART/USART interfaces, this part fits into a distributed sensor node or a low-power instrumentation front end.

It is suited for outdoor telecom boxes, solar inverter controllers, motor-drive auxiliary boards, and factory-automation sensor hubs that stay above the cold soak but below the under-hood 125°C boundary.

No minimum-buy obligation; we can support both prototype quantities and production reel volumes.

Frequently asked questions

Are there any equivalents or alternatives to MSP430FR2153TRSMT?

A functional alternative at a higher performance tier is the Texas Instruments F280041PZQR, a 32-bit C28x core running at 100 MHz with 100 KB Flash, 21-channel 12-bit ADC, and dual 12-bit DACs. That part is AEC-Q100 qualified and extends the temperature range to 125°C, but it uses Flash memory instead of FRAM, which means slower write cycles and higher write-energy per operation. The F280041PZQR is not a pin-compatible drop-in — it targets automotive and high-throughput control loops where the MSP430's FRAM write speed and ultra-low-power idle are less critical.

What development tools support MSP430FR2153TRSMT?

The MSP430FR2153TRSMT is supported by TI's Code Composer Studio IDE (free version available) and the MSP430-GCC toolchain. The MSP-TS430RGC32USB target socket board and the MSP-FET flash emulation tool provide JTAG/SWD debugging. Energia, a wiring-like framework, also supports this device for rapid prototyping.

Is MSP430FR2153TRSMT RoHS compliant?

Yes, it is ROHS3 compliant, meaning it meets the EU RoHS directive's restriction on lead and other hazardous substances in electronic equipment.
