Product details

16 MHz, 4 KB Flash — what fits in this MSP430G2xx

The USI module provides I²C and SPI connectivity through a shared serial interface, which keeps the pin count low at 10 I/O lines in the 16-VQFN package.

4 KB Flash / 256 B RAM — firmware budget reality

With 4 KB of Flash and 256 bytes of RAM, the firmware engineer must budget tightly: a typical I²C temperature sensor driver with a PID loop leaves about 1.5 KB for the application layer, and the RAM ceiling means no large lookup tables or multi-frame buffers.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to MSP430G2312IRSA16R?

Within the MSP430G2xx family, the MSP430G2412IRSA16R is a pin-compatible step-up with 8 KB Flash and 512 bytes RAM while keeping the same 16-QFN footprint, supply range, and peripheral set. It is a direct drop-in for designs that need more code or data space without a board respin.
