Frequently Asked Questions
What are the key specifications of the MSP430F169IRTDT?
The MSP430F169IRTDT is a 16-bit ultra-low-power MCU with a maximum clock frequency of 8 MHz, 60kB Flash memory, 2048B RAM, a 12-bit ADC, dual DAC channels, 3-channel DMA, 2 USART interfaces (supporting UART/SPI), I2C, a hardware multiplier, and a Boundary Scan interface, all in a Quad Flat No-Lead package.
What applications is the MSP430F169IRTDT best suited for?
This MCU is optimized for energy-constrained applications such as wireless sensor networks, portable medical devices, smart utility meters, industrial data loggers, and IoT edge nodes. Its ultra-low-power design and integrated analog peripherals (ADC/DAC) make it particularly effective in battery-powered or energy-harvesting systems.
What is the package type and how does it affect PCB design?
The MSP430F169IRTDT uses a Quad Flat No-Lead (QFN) package, which provides a compact footprint with exposed thermal pad for improved heat dissipation. This package is ideal for space-constrained PCB designs and enables shorter signal traces, reducing parasitic inductance and improving high-frequency signal integrity.
Are there compatible alternatives or replacements for the MSP430F169IRTDT?
Compatible alternatives within the MSP430 family include the MSP430F168 (48kB Flash) and MSP430F167 (32kB Flash), which share the same pin-compatible package and peripheral set. For higher performance, the MSP430F5529 or MSP430FR5969 offer extended memory and lower operating voltage down to 1.8V while maintaining software compatibility.
Where can I buy the MSP430F169IRTDT and what is the typical price?
The MSP430F169IRTDT is available from major distributors including Digi-Key, Mouser, and Arrow Electronics. The typical unit price starts at approximately $10.26 for single quantities, with volume pricing available. FindMyChip also aggregates real-time stock and pricing from multiple suppliers worldwide to help you source at the best available price.
