MSP430F2131IRGER

Microcontrollers Overview

The MSP430F2131IRGER is a 16-bit microcontroller from the Texas Instruments MSP430 family, housed in a VQFN-24 package. It features an MSP430 core with 8 KB of Flash program memory and 256 B of RAM. The device supports a maximum clock frequency of 16 MHz and operates within a supply voltage range of 1.8 V to 3.6 V. It provides 16 I/O pins and lacks an integrated ADC. The component is rated for industrial temperatures from -40°C to +105°C.

Microcontrollers Feature Summary

• Ultra-low-power 16-bit architecture with fast wake-up capabilities
• Integrated Flash memory for non-volatile code storage
• Digital controlled oscillator for rapid mode transitions

Microcontrollers Applications

• Battery-powered sensor nodes
• Industrial control systems
• Smart metering devices

Microcontrollers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix IRGER against official datasheets to confirm the VQFN-24 package and industrial temperature rating (-40°C to +105°C). Ensure compatibility with design requirements regarding the absence of an onboard ADC and the 16 I/O pin configuration before procurement.

Microcontrollers Selection Notes

Select this component when a balance of moderate Flash capacity (8 KB) and low power consumption is required without analog-to-digital conversion needs. It is suitable for applications where digital I/O management and efficient code execution are prioritized over signal acquisition capabilities.

Microcontrollers Part Context

This part belongs to the MSP430F2xx series, designed for ultra-low-power embedded applications. It utilizes the high-performance 16-bit RISC CPU and offers code efficiency through constant generators. The series is widely used in cost-sensitive, battery-operated devices requiring reliable digital processing.

Microcontrollers Replacement Considerations

MSP430F2131IPWR shares identical core specifications but uses a TSSOP-20 package instead of VQFN-24. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal performance differences if substituting.
