Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating
Conditions is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
All voltages referenced to VSS. VCORE is for internal device use only. No external DC loading or voltage should be applied.
Higher temperature may be applied during board soldering according to the current JEDEC J-STD-020 specification with peak reflow
temperatures not higher than classified on the device label on the shipping boxes or reels.

TI recommends powering AVCC and DVCC from the same source. A maximum difference of 0.3 V between AVCC and DVCC can be
tolerated during power up and operation.
The minimum supply voltage is defined by the supervisor SVS levels when it is enabled. See the Section 8.23 threshold parameters for
the exact values and further details.
A capacitor tolerance of ±20% or better is required.
The MSP430 CPU is clocked directly with MCLK. Both the high and low phase of MCLK must not exceed the pulse duration of the
specified maximum frequency.
Modules may have a different maximum input clock specification. See the specification of the respective module in this data sheet.

To improve EMI on the XT1 oscillator, the following guidelines should be observed.
• Keep the trace between the device and the crystal as short as possible.
• Design a good ground plane around the oscillator pins.
• Prevent crosstalk from other clock or data lines into oscillator pins XIN and XOUT.
• Avoid running PCB traces underneath or adjacent to the XIN and XOUT pins.
• Use assembly materials and processes that avoid any parasitic load on the oscillator XIN and XOUT pins.
• If conformal coating is used, make sure that it does not induce capacitive or resistive leakage between the oscillator pins.
When XT1BYPASS is set, XT1 circuits are automatically powered down. Input signal is a digital square wave with parametrics defined
in the Schmitt-trigger Inputs section of this data sheet.
Maximum frequency of operation of the entire device cannot be exceeded.
Oscillation allowance is based on a safety factor of 5 for recommended crystals. The oscillation allowance is a function of the
XT1DRIVEx settings and the effective load. In general, comparable oscillator allowance can be achieved based on the following
guidelines, but should be evaluated based on the actual crystal selected for the application:
• For XT1DRIVEx = 0, CL,eff ≤ 6 pF.
• For XT1DRIVEx = 1, 6 pF ≤ CL,eff ≤ 9 pF.
• For XT1DRIVEx = 2, 6 pF ≤ CL,eff ≤ 10 pF.
• For XT1DRIVEx = 3, CL,eff ≥ 6 pF.
Includes parasitic bond and package capacitance (approximately 2 pF per pin).
Because the PCB adds additional capacitance, verify the correct load by measuring the ACLK frequency. For a correct setup, the
effective load capacitance should always match the specification of the used crystal.
Requires external capacitors at both terminals. Values are specified by crystal manufacturers.
Frequencies below the MIN specification set the fault flag. Frequencies above the MAX specification do not set the fault flag.
Frequencies between the MIN and MAX specifications might set the flag.
Measured with logic-level input frequency but also applies to operation with crystals.

When selecting the proper DCO frequency range (DCORSELx), the target DCO frequency, fDCO, should be set to reside within the
range of fDCO(n, 0),MAX ≤ fDCO ≤ fDCO(n, 31),MIN, where fDCO(n, 0),MAX represents the maximum frequency specified for the DCO frequency,
range n, tap 0 (DCOx = 0) and fDCO(n,31),MIN represents the minimum frequency specified for the DCO frequency, range n, tap 31
(DCOx = 31). This ensures that the target DCO frequency resides within the range selected. It should also be noted that if the actual
fDCO frequency for the selected range causes the FLL or the application to select tap 0 or 31, the DCO fault flag is set to report that the
selected range is at its minimum or maximum tap setting.
Calculated using the box method: (MAX(–40°C to 85°C) – MIN(–40°C to 85°C)) / MIN(–40°C to 85°C) / (85°C – (–40°C))

This value represents the time from the wake-up event to the first active edge of MCLK. The wake-up time depends on the
performance mode of the low-side supervisor (SVSL) and low-side monitor (SVML). tWAKE-UP-FAST is possible with SVSL and SVML
in full performance mode or disabled. For specific register settings, see the Low-Side SVS and SVM Control and Performance Mode
Selection section in the Power Management Module and Supply Voltage Supervisor chapter of the MSP430x5xx and MSP430x6xx
Family User's Guide.
This value represents the time from the wake-up event to the first active edge of MCLK. The wake-up time depends on the
performance mode of the low-side supervisor (SVSL) and low-side monitor (SVML). tWAKE-UP-SLOW is set with SVSL and SVML in
normal mode (low current mode). For specific register settings, see the Low-Side SVS and SVM Control and Performance Mode
Selection section in the Power Management Module and Supply Voltage Supervisor chapter of the MSP430x5xx and MSP430x6xx
Family User's Guide.
The wake-up times from LPM0 and LPM1 to AM are not specified. They are proportional to MCLK cycle time but are not affected by
the performance mode settings as for LPM2, LPM3, and LPM4.
This value represents the time from the wake-up event to the reset vector execution.

The analog input voltage range must be within the selected reference voltage range VR+ to VR– for valid conversion results. If the
reference voltage is supplied by an external source or if the internal reference voltage is used and REFOUT = 1, then decoupling
capacitors are required. See Section 8.41 and Section 8.42.

The temperature sensor is provided by the REF module. See the REF module parametric IREF+ regarding the current consumption of
the temperature sensor.
The temperature sensor offset can be significant. TI recommends a single-point calibration to minimize the offset error of the built-in
temperature sensor. The TLV structure contains calibration values for 30°C ±3°C and 85°C ±3°C for each of the available reference
voltage levels. The sensor voltage can be computed as VSENSE = TCSENSOR × (Temperature,°C) + VSENSOR, where TCSENSOR and
VSENSOR can be computed from the calibration values for higher accuracy. See also the MSP430x5xx and MSP430x6xx Family User's
Guide.
The typical equivalent impedance of the sensor is 51 kΩ. The sample time required includes the sensor on time, tSENSOR(on).
The on time (tVMID(on)) is included in the sampling time (tVMID(sample)); no additional on time is needed.

The external reference is used during ADC conversion to charge and discharge the capacitance array. The input capacitance, Ci, is
also the dynamic load for an external reference during conversion. The dynamic impedance of the reference supply should follow the
recommendations on analog-source impedance to allow the charge to settle for 12-bit accuracy.
The accuracy limits the minimum positive external reference voltage. Lower reference voltage levels may be applied with reduced
accuracy requirements.
The accuracy limits the maximum negative external reference voltage. Higher reference voltage levels may be applied with reduced
accuracy requirements.
The accuracy limits minimum external differential reference voltage. Lower differential reference voltage levels may be applied with
reduced accuracy requirements.
Two decoupling capacitors, 10 µF and 100 nF, should be connected to VREF to decouple the dynamic current required for an external
reference source if it is used for the ADC12_A. See also the MSP430x5xx and MSP430x6xx Family User's Guide.

The reference is supplied to the ADC by the REF module and is buffered locally inside the ADC. The ADC uses two internal buffers,
one smaller and one larger for driving the VREF+ terminal. When REFOUT = 1, the reference is available at the VREF+ terminal and
is used as the reference for the conversion and uses the larger buffer. When REFOUT = 0, the reference is only used as the reference
for the conversion and uses the smaller buffer.
The internal reference current is supplied from the AVCC terminal. Consumption is independent of the ADC12ON control bit, unless
a conversion is active. REFOUT = 0 represents the current contribution of the smaller buffer. REFOUT = 1 represents the current
contribution of the larger buffer without external load.
The temperature sensor is provided by the REF module. Its current is supplied from the AVCC terminal and is equivalent to IREF+ with
REFON = 1 and REFOUT = 0.
Contribution only due to the reference and buffer including package. This does not include resistance due to the PCB traces or other
application factors.
Calculated using the box method: (MAX(–40°C to 85°C) – MIN(–40°C to 85°C)) / MIN(–40°C to 85°C)/(85°C – (–40°C)).
The condition is that the error in a conversion started after tREFON is less than ±0.5 LSB. The settling time depends on the external
capacitive load when REFOUT = 1.

9 Detailed Description
9.1 CPU
The MSP430 CPU has a 16-bit RISC architecture that is highly transparent to the application. All operations,
other than program-flow instructions, are performed as register operations in conjunction with seven addressing
modes for source operand and four addressing modes for destination operand.
The CPU is integrated with 16 registers that provide reduced instruction execution time. The register-to-register
operation execution time is one cycle of the CPU clock. Four of the registers, R0 to R3, are dedicated as
program counter, stack pointer, status register, and constant generator, respectively. The remaining registers are
general-purpose registers (see Figure 9-1).
Peripherals are connected to the CPU using data, address, and control buses. Peripherals can be managed with
all instructions.
The instruction set consists of the original 51 instructions with three formats and seven address modes and
additional instructions for the expanded address range. Each instruction can operate on word and byte data.

Multiple source flags
Interrupt flags are in the module.
A reset is generated if the CPU tries to fetch instructions from within peripheral space or vacant memory space.
(Non)maskable: the individual interrupt enable bit can disable an interrupt event, but the general interrupt enable cannot disable it.
Reserved interrupt vectors at addresses are not used in this device and can be used for regular program code if necessary. To
maintain compatibility with other devices, TI recommends reserving these locations.

9.6.1 JTAG Standard Interface
The MSP430 family supports the standard JTAG interface which requires four signals for sending and receiving
data. The JTAG signals are shared with general-purpose I/O. The TEST/SBWTCK pin is used to enable
the JTAG signals. In addition to these signals, the RST/NMI/SBWTDIO is required to interface with MSP430
development tools and device programmers. Table 9-4 lists the JTAG pin requirements. For further details on
interfacing to development tools and device programmers, see the MSP430 Hardware Tools User's Guide.

In addition to the standard JTAG interface, the MSP430 microcontrollers support the 2-wire Spy-Bi-Wire
interface. Spy-Bi-Wire can be used to interface with MSP430 development tools and device programmers. Table
9-5 lists the Spy-Bi-Wire interface pin requirements. For further details on interfacing to development tools and
device programmers, see the MSP430 Hardware Tools User's Guide. For the description of the Spy-Bi-Wire

9.7 Flash Memory
The flash memory can be programmed through the JTAG port, Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW), the BSL, or in-system by the
CPU. The CPU can perform single-byte, single-word, and long-word writes to the flash memory. Features of the
flash memory include:
•
•
•
•
Flash memory has n segments of main memory and four segments of information memory (A to D) of
128 bytes each. Each segment in main memory is 512 bytes in size.
Segments 0 to n may be erased in one step, or each segment may be individually erased.
Segments A to D can be erased individually. Segments A to D are also called information memory.
Segment A can be locked separately.
9.8 RAM
The RAM is made up of n sectors. Each sector can be completely powered down to save leakage; however, all
data are lost. Features of the RAM include:
•
•
•
•
RAM has n sectors. The size of a sector can be found in Section 9.4.
Each sector 0 to n can be complete disabled; however, data retention is lost.
Each sector 0 to n automatically enters low-power retention mode when possible.
For devices that contain USB memory, the USB memory can be used as normal RAM if USB is not required.
9.9 Peripherals
Peripherals are connected to the CPU through data, address, and control buses. Peripherals can be handled
using all instructions. For complete module descriptions, see the MSP430x5xx and MSP430x6xx Family User's
Guide.
9.9.1 Digital I/O
Up to ten 8-bit I/O ports are implemented: For 100- and 113-pin options, P1 through P10 are complete, and P11
contains three individual I/O ports. For 80-pin options, P1 through P7 are complete, P8 contains seven individual
I/O ports, and P9 through P11 do not exist. Port PJ contains four individual I/O ports, common to all devices.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
48
All individual I/O bits are independently programmable.
Any combination of input, output, and interrupt conditions is possible.
Pullup or pulldown on all ports is programmable.
Drive strength on all ports is programmable.
Edge-selectable interrupt and LPM4.5 wake-up input capability is available for all bits of ports P1 and P2.
Read and write access to port-control registers is supported by all instructions.

SLAS655H – JANUARY 2010 – REVISED MAY 2021
9.9.2 Oscillator and System Clock
The clock system is supported by the Unified Clock System (UCS) module that includes support for a 32-kHz
watch crystal oscillator (XT1 LF mode), an internal very-low-power low-frequency oscillator (VLO), an internal
trimmed low-frequency oscillator (REFO), an integrated internal digitally controlled oscillator (DCO), and a
high-frequency crystal oscillator (XT1 HF mode or XT2). The UCS module is designed to meet the requirements
of both low system cost and low power consumption. The UCS module features digital frequency locked loop
(FLL) hardware that, in conjunction with a digital modulator, stabilizes the DCO frequency to a programmable
multiple of the selected FLL reference frequency. The internal DCO provides a fast turnon clock source and
stabilizes in less than 5 µs. The UCS module provides the following clock signals:
•
•
•
•
Auxiliary clock (ACLK), sourced from a 32-kHz watch crystal, a high-frequency crystal, the internal lowfrequency oscillator (VLO), the trimmed low-frequency oscillator (REFO), or the internal digitally controlled
oscillator (DCO).
Main clock (MCLK), the system clock used by the CPU. MCLK can be sourced by same sources made
available to ACLK.
Sub-Main clock (SMCLK), the subsystem clock used by the peripheral modules. SMCLK can be sourced by
same sources made available to ACLK.
ACLK/n, the buffered output of ACLK, ACLK/2, ACLK/4, ACLK/8, ACLK/16, ACLK/32.
9.9.3 Power-Management Module (PMM)
The PMM includes an integrated voltage regulator that supplies the core voltage to the device and contains
programmable output levels to provide for power optimization. The PMM also includes supply voltage supervisor
(SVS) and supply voltage monitoring (SVM) circuitry, as well as brownout protection. The brownout circuit is
implemented to provide the proper internal reset signal to the device during power on and power off. The
SVS and SVM circuitry detects if the supply voltage drops below a user-selectable level and supports both
supply voltage supervision (the device is automatically reset) and supply voltage monitoring (the device is not
automatically reset). SVS and SVM circuitry is available on the primary supply and core supply.
9.9.4 Hardware Multiplier (MPY)
The multiplication operation is supported by a dedicated peripheral module. The module performs operations
with 32-, 24-, 16-, and 8-bit operands. The module supports signed and unsigned multiplication as well as signed
and unsigned multiply-and-accumulate operations.
9.9.5 Real-Time Clock (RTC_A)
The RTC_A module can be used as a general-purpose 32-bit counter (counter mode) or as an integrated
real-time clock (calendar mode). In counter mode, the RTC_A also includes two independent 8-bit timers that
can be cascaded to form a 16-bit timer/counter. Both timers can be read and written by software. Calendar mode
integrates an internal calendar which compensates for months with less than 31 days and includes leap year
correction. The RTC_A also supports flexible alarm functions and offset-calibration hardware.
9.9.6 Watchdog Timer (WDT_A)
The primary function of the WDT_A module is to perform a controlled system restart after a software problem
occurs. If the selected time interval expires, a system reset is generated. If the watchdog function is not needed
in an application, the module can be configured as an interval timer and can generate interrupts at selected time
intervals.

9.9.7 System Module (SYS)
The SYS module handles many of the system functions within the device. These functions include power on
reset and power up clear handling, NMI source selection and management, reset interrupt vector generators,
bootloader entry mechanisms, and configuration management (device descriptors). SYS also includes a data
exchange mechanism through JTAG called a JTAG mailbox that can be used in the application. Table 9-6

9.9.8 DMA Controller
The DMA controller allows movement of data from one memory address to another without CPU intervention.
For example, the DMA controller can be used to move data from the ADC12_A conversion memory to RAM.
Using the DMA controller can increase the throughput of peripheral modules. The DMA controller reduces
system power consumption by allowing the CPU to remain in sleep mode, without having to awaken to move
data to or from a peripheral. Table 9-7 lists the available DMA triggers.

The pin direction is controlled by the USCI module.
If the I2C functionality is selected, the output drives only the logical 0 to VSS level.
UCA0CLK function takes precedence over UCB0STE function. If the pin is required as UCA0CLK input or output, USCI_B0 is forced to
3-wire SPI mode if 4-wire SPI mode is selected.
UCB0CLK function takes precedence over UCA0STE function. If the pin is required as UCB0CLK input or output, USCI_A0 is forced to
3-wire SPI mode if 4-wire SPI mode is selected.
UCA1CLK function takes precedence over UCB1STE function. If the pin is required as UCA1CLK input or output, USCI_B1 is forced to
3-wire SPI mode if 4-wire SPI mode is selected.

The pin direction is controlled by the USCI module.
If the I2C functionality is selected, the output drives only the logical 0 to VSS level.
UCB1CLK function takes precedence over UCA1STE function. If the pin is required as UCB1CLK input or output, USCI_A1 is forced to
3-wire SPI mode if 4-wire SPI mode is selected.

The pin direction is controlled by the USCI module.
If the I2C functionality is selected, the output drives only the logical 0 to VSS level.
UCA2CLK function takes precedence over UCB2STE function. If the pin is required as UCA2CLK input or output, USCI_B2 is forced to
3-wire SPI mode if 4-wire SPI mode is selected.

10 Device and Documentation Support
10.1 Getting Started
For an introduction to the MSP430™ family of devices and the tools and libraries that are available to help with
your development, visit the MSP430 ultra-low-power sensing & measurement MCUs overview.
10.2 Device Nomenclature
To designate the stages in the product development cycle, TI assigns prefixes to the part numbers of all MSP
MCU devices. Each MSP MCU commercial family member has one of two prefixes: MSP or XMS. These
prefixes represent evolutionary stages of product development from engineering prototypes (XMS) through fully
qualified production devices (MSP).
XMS – Experimental device that is not necessarily representative of the final device's electrical specifications
MSP – Fully qualified production device
XMS devices are shipped against the following disclaimer:
"Developmental product is intended for internal evaluation purposes."
MSP devices have been characterized fully, and the quality and reliability of the device have been demonstrated
fully. TI's standard warranty applies.
Predictions show that prototype devices (XMS) have a greater failure rate than the standard production devices.
TI recommends that these devices not be used in any production system because their expected end-use failure
rate still is undefined. Only qualified production devices are to be used.
TI device nomenclature also includes a suffix with the device family name. This suffix indicates the temperature
range, package type, and distribution format. Figure 10-1 provides a legend for reading the complete device
name.

SLAS655H – JANUARY 2010 – REVISED MAY 2021
MSP MCU Programmer and Debugger
The MSP-FET is a powerful emulation development tool – often called a debug probe – which allows users
to quickly begin application development on MSP low-power microcontrollers (MCU). Creating MCU software
usually requires downloading the resulting binary program to the MSP device for validation and debugging.
The MSP-FET provides a debug communication pathway between a host computer and the target MSP.
Furthermore, the MSP-FET also provides a Backchannel UART connection between the computer's USB
interface and the MSP UART. This affords the MSP programmer a convenient method for communicating serially
between the MSP and a terminal running on the computer. It also supports loading programs (often called
firmware) to the MSP target using the BSL (bootloader) through the UART and I2C communication protocols.
MSP-GANG Production Programmer
The MSP Gang Programmer is an MSP430 or MSP432 device programmer that can program up to eight
identical MSP430 or MSP432 Flash or FRAM devices at the same time. The MSP Gang Programmer connects
to a host PC using a standard RS-232 or USB connection and provides flexible programming options that allow
the user to fully customize the process. The MSP Gang Programmer is provided with an expansion board, called
the Gang Splitter, that implements the interconnections between the MSP Gang Programmer and multiple target
devices. Eight cables are provided that connect the expansion board to eight target devices (through JTAG
or Spy-Bi-Wire connectors). The programming can be done with a PC or as a stand-alone device. A PC-side
graphical user interface is also available and is DLL-based.

User's Guides
MSP430F5xx and MSP430F6xx Family User's Guide
Detailed information on the modules and peripherals available in this device family.
MSP430 Flash Device Bootloader (BSL) User's Guide
The MSP430 bootloader (BSL) lets users communicate with embedded memory in the MSP430 microcontroller
during the prototyping phase, final production, and in service. Both the programmable memory (flash memory)
and the data memory (RAM) can be modified as required. Do not confuse the bootloader with the bootstrap
loader programs found in some digital signal processors (DSPs) that automatically load program code (and data)
from external memory to the internal memory of the DSP.
MSP430 Programming With the JTAG Interface
This document describes the functions that are required to erase, program, and verify the memory module
of the MSP430 flash-based and FRAM-based microcontroller families using the JTAG communication port. In
addition, it describes how to program the JTAG access security fuse that is available on all MSP430 devices.
This document describes device access using both the standard 4-wire JTAG interface and the 2-wire JTAG
interface, which is also referred to as Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW).
MSP430 Hardware Tools User's Guide
This manual describes the hardware of the TI MSP-FET430 Flash Emulation Tool (FET). The FET is the
program development tool for the MSP430 ultra-low-power microcontroller. Both available interface types, the
parallel port interface and the USB interface, are described.
Application Reports
MSP430 32-kHz Crystal Oscillators
Selection of the right crystal, correct load circuit, and proper board layout are important for a stable crystal
oscillator. This application report summarizes crystal oscillator function and explains the parameters to select the
correct crystal for MSP430 ultra-low-power operation. In addition, hints and examples for correct board layout
are given. The document also contains detailed information on the possible oscillator tests to ensure stable
oscillator operation in mass production.
MSP430 System-Level ESD Considerations
System-level ESD has become increasingly demanding with silicon technology scaling towards lower voltages
and the need for designing cost-effective and ultra-low-power components. This application report addresses
three different ESD topics to help board designers and OEMs understand and design robust system-level
designs.

10.7 Electrostatic Discharge Caution
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled
with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may
be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published
specifications.
10.8 Export Control Notice
Recipient agrees to not knowingly export or re-export, directly or indirectly, any product or technical data (as
defined by the U.S., EU, and other Export Administration Regulations) including software, or any controlled
product restricted by other applicable national regulations, received from disclosing party under nondisclosure
obligations (if any), or any direct product of such technology, to any destination to which such export or re-export
is restricted or prohibited by U.S. or other applicable laws, without obtaining prior authorization from U.S.
Department of Commerce and other competent Government authorities to the extent required by those laws.
