Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum clock frequency of the MSP430FR5969IRGZ?
The MSP430FR5969IRGZ supports a maximum CPU clock frequency of 24MHz. This allows the device to execute tasks quickly and then return to a low-power sleep state, optimizing energy consumption in battery-powered or energy-harvesting applications.
What type of non-volatile memory does the MSP430FR5969IRGZ use, and how much is available?
The MSP430FR5969IRGZ uses 64KB of FRAM (Ferroelectric RAM) as its non-volatile memory. FRAM offers byte-level write access, significantly lower write energy compared to Flash, and virtually unlimited write endurance, making it ideal for data logging and frequent configuration updates.
Is the MSP430FR5969IRGZ suitable for secure IoT applications?
Yes. The MSP430FR5969IRGZ integrates a hardware AES256 accelerator, enabling robust encryption and decryption without consuming extra CPU cycles. Combined with its ultra-low-power operation and FRAM memory, it is well suited for secure sensor nodes, smart meters, and connected medical devices.
What package does the MSP430FR5969IRGZ use, and what are alternatives?
The MSP430FR5969IRGZ comes in a 48-pin VQFN (Quad Flat No-Lead) package, which provides a compact PCB footprint suitable for space-constrained designs. An alternative orderable variant, the MSP430FR5969IRGZT, uses the same die and pinout in the same VQFN package.
Does the MSP430FR5969IRGZ include DMA and analog peripherals?
Yes. The MSP430FR5969IRGZ includes DMA channels for efficient data transfers between peripherals and memory without CPU intervention, and a 12-bit SAR ADC for precision analog signal acquisition. These peripherals make the device highly effective in sensor interface and data acquisition systems.
