Memory sizing for the firmware budget
With 8 KB of Flash and 512 bytes of RAM, the MSP430G2433IPW28 is sized for a single-purpose firmware image — a sensor polling loop, a simple PID controller, or a Modbus slave on the UART. There is no room for a full RTOS or a large comms buffer; the 10-bit ADC results and LINbus frame handling must fit within the 512-byte RAM. The internal oscillator eliminates an external crystal, saving two I/O pins for other functions.
