Frequently asked questions
Does the MSP430FR6870IRGCR have an LCD controller?
Yes — the peripheral set includes a segment LCD driver, which can drive a glass LCD panel directly without an external display controller. This is one of the key features that targets the part at metering and HMI applications.
Where can I find the datasheet for the MSP430FR6870IRGCR?
The datasheet is available from Texas Instruments under the base product number MSP430FR6870. The full technical reference manual covers the CPUXV2 core, FRAM controller, LCD driver, and all peripherals. We can include a copy with your RFQ or direct you to the TI product folder.
