MSP430FR2110IPW16R Technical Specifications

MSP430FR2110IPW16R Key Features

• Single 16?bit MCU core with low dynamic overhead, enabling compact code and deterministic timing for control tasks.
• Integrated FRAM for fast nonvolatile writes and higher write endurance compared with typical flash, reducing wear in frequent?update storage.
• Wide supply range (1.8?C3.6 V) and low standby current for longer battery life in portable and energy?harvesting systems.
• Compact 16?pin package with up to 12 GPIOs and built?in timers and serial interface for higher integration in small form?factor designs.

Typical Applications

• Battery?powered sensors and data loggers that require frequent nonvolatile record updates and low standby current to extend battery life over months or years.
• Small industrial controllers and relay drivers where a compact pin count and deterministic 16?bit MCU performance provide reliable real?time control.
• Human?machine interface nodes such as simple keypads and LED drivers that need nonvolatile settings storage and minimal BOM cost.
• IoT endpoints and wireless sensor front?ends where the device acts as a low?power data concentrator or interface to a radio module with limited I/O and power budget.

MSP430FR2110IPW16R Advantages vs Typical Alternatives

The device leverages FRAM to deliver faster nonvolatile writes and far higher endurance than typical flash?based MCUs. That makes it better for duty?cycled systems that frequently update configuration or logs. The 16?bit MSP430 core uses fewer cycles for control code compared with some 8?bit alternatives, improving throughput at similar clock rates. In a 16?pin package it integrates timers, comparator and serial interface, offering higher functional density versus discrete solutions or larger MCUs.
