Product details
Overview
CC430F5133IRGZ from Texas Instruments is an ultra-low-power System-on-Chip (SoC) microcontroller integrating a sub-1 GHz RF transceiver core, 16-bit MSP430 CPUXV2, 8 KB flash, 2 KB RAM, 12-bit ADC with six external inputs, two 16-bit timers, USCI_A0 (UART/IrDA/SPI) and USCI_B0 (I²C/SPI), RTC, AES-128 coprocessor, and 30 I/O pins in a 48-pin VQFN package. It targets battery-powered wireless sensor nodes operating at 315/433/868/915 MHz.
For engineers reviewing the CC430F5133IRGZ datasheet, CC430F5133IRGZ pinout, CC430F5133IRGZ application, or CC430F5133IRGZ equivalent, key selection criteria include integrated RF performance (–117 dBm sensitivity at 0.6 kBaud), ultra-low active current (160 µA/MHz), LPM3 standby draw (2.0 µA), RF supply range (2–3.6 V), and compatibility with EN 300 220 and FCC Part 15.
Technical Context
The CC430F5133IRGZ implements a tightly coupled SoC architecture where the MSP430 CPUXV2 core directly interfaces with the CC1101-derived RF transceiver via dedicated packet-handling logic and shared memory-mapped registers. Its unified clock system uses an FLL to synchronize digital, analog, and RF domains while supporting multiple low-power modes with sub-6 µs wake-up latency.
RF functionality includes programmable data rates (0.6–500 kBaud), digital RSSI output, automatic CRC handling, sync word detection, address filtering, and CCA support for listen-before-talk operation - all managed by on-chip modem logic without CPU intervention during packet reception/transmission.

FAQ
What is the maximum output power supported by the CC430F5133IRGZ RF transceiver?
The CC430F5133IRGZ RF transceiver supports programmable output power up to +12 dBm across all supported frequency bands (300–348 MHz, 389–464 MHz, 779–928 MHz). This level is achieved using the integrated PA and is configurable via register settings in the CC1101-compatible modem engine. The actual achievable EIRP depends on antenna matching and regulatory limits in the target region.
Does the CC430F5133IRGZ support hardware AES encryption?
Yes, the CC430F5133IRGZ includes a dedicated 128-bit AES security coprocessor that performs encryption and decryption independently of the CPU. This allows secure over-the-air firmware updates and payload encryption without impacting real-time sensor processing or increasing active-mode current consumption.
What are the low-power mode current specifications for the CC430F5133IRGZ?
The CC430F5133IRGZ achieves 160 µA/MHz in CPU Active Mode (AM), 2.0 µA in Standby Mode (LPM3 with RTC enabled), and 1.0 µA in Off Mode (LPM4 with RAM retention only). These values are measured under typical conditions per SLAS554I Rev. September 2018 and enable multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries in intermittent-sensing applications.
Can the CC430F5133IRGZ operate with a single power supply rail?
No - the CC430F5133IRGZ requires separate supply connections: DVCC (digital core), AVCC (analog peripherals), and AVCC_RF (RF transceiver analog section). While DVCC and AVCC may be tied together in some designs, AVCC_RF must be independently decoupled and filtered to prevent RF noise coupling into sensitive analog circuits, as specified in the device layout guidelines.
Is the CC430F5133IRGZ pin-compatible with other CC430F513x devices?
Yes, the CC430F5133IRGZ shares identical 48-pin VQFN (RGZ) packaging, pinout, and peripheral mapping with CC430F5135IRGZ and CC430F5137IRGZ. Firmware and hardware designs can be reused across this variant group, with differentiation limited to flash/RAM capacity and ordering part number - enabling scalable product families with minimal redesign effort.
