Product details
Overview
MSP430F2112TPWR from Texas Instruments is an ultra-low-power 16-bit RISC microcontroller featuring 2 KB flash, 256 B RAM, a 10-bit 200-ksps ADC with internal reference and DTC, two 16-bit timers (Timer0_A3 with three capture/compare registers, Timer1_A2 with two), USCI_A0 (UART/LIN/IrDA/SPI) and USCI_B0 (SPI/I2C), and up to 24 GPIO pins. It targets battery-powered sensor nodes and portable instrumentation requiring sub-µA standby operation.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430F2112TPWR datasheet, MSP430F2112TPWR pinout, MSP430F2112TPWR application, or MSP430F2112TPWR equivalent, key selection criteria include its -40°C to 105°C temperature grade, TSSOP-28 package, integrated brownout detector, Spy-Bi-Wire debug interface, and calibrated DCO enabling <1 µs wake-up from LPM4.
Technical Context
The MSP430F2112TPWR implements a 16-bit CPU with seven addressing modes and constant generators for high code efficiency. Its basic clock module integrates a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) calibrated to ±1% at four frequencies up to 16 MHz, plus support for 32-kHz crystal, HF crystal, resonator, or external digital clock sources.
Peripherals are memory-mapped and accessible via all CPU instructions. The ADC10 includes sample-and-hold, autoscan, and a data transfer controller (DTC) that autonomously stores conversion results in RAM without CPU intervention. The comparator_A+ supports slope A/D conversion and analog signal monitoring.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-low-power microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MSP430F2122TPWR | 4 KB flash, 512 B RAM, same peripherals and package - doubles program storage and RAM capacity. | Required when firmware exceeds 2 KB or needs larger buffer space for communication stacks or data logging. | Select MSP430F2122TPWR if future firmware expansion or increased data buffering is anticipated; pin-compatible upgrade path. |
| MSP430G2553IPW28 | 16 KB flash, 512 B RAM, enhanced USCI (dual UART/I²C/SPI), but no integrated comparator or DTC - newer generation with higher integration. | Preferred for new designs needing larger code space, dual serial interfaces, or lower unit cost at volume; lacks slope A/D capability. | Choose MSP430G2553IPW28 for cost-sensitive, higher-volume applications where comparator_A+ and DTC are not required. |
Compared with MSP430F2112TPWR, MSP430F2122TPWR offers scalable memory while retaining identical peripheral set and power profile, whereas MSP430G2553IPW28 trades analog features for greater serial interface flexibility and lower bill-of-materials cost in production-scale deployments.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the MSP430F2112TPWR?
The MSP430F2112TPWR supports a maximum system clock (MCLK) frequency of 16 MHz, achieved using the factory-calibrated internal DCO or an external HF crystal. Its 16-bit RISC core executes instructions at 62.5 ns per cycle at this rate, enabling responsive real-time control while maintaining ultra-low power consumption in active mode.
Does the MSP430F2112TPWR support crystal oscillators?
Yes, the MSP430F2112TPWR supports both low-frequency (32-kHz) and high-frequency (up to 16-MHz) crystal oscillators via dedicated XIN/P2.6 and XOUT/P2.7 pins. These crystals provide stable, low-jitter timing for RTC functions and high-accuracy serial communication, complementing the internal DCO's fast wake-up capability.
How many analog input channels does the ADC10 module support on the MSP430F2112TPWR?
The ADC10 module on the MSP430F2112TPWR supports eight analog input channels (A0–A7), mapped to P2.0, P2.1, P2.2, P2.3, P2.4, P3.0, P3.6, and P3.7. With autoscan mode and the integrated data transfer controller (DTC), it can sequentially convert all eight channels and store results in RAM without CPU intervention.
What debug interface does the MSP430F2112TPWR use?
The MSP430F2112TPWR uses the Spy-Bi-Wire (SBW) interface - a two-wire variant of JTAG - for programming and real-time debugging. It requires only RST/NMI/SBWTDIO and TEST/SBWTCK pins, enabling full flash programming, breakpoint setting, and register inspection with minimal PCB routing overhead.
Is the MSP430F2112TPWR pin-compatible with other devices in the MSP430F21x2 family?
Yes, the MSP430F2112TPWR in the 28-pin TSSOP (PW) package shares identical pinout and electrical characteristics with MSP430F2122TPWR and MSP430F2132TPWR. This allows hardware reuse across memory variants - upgrading flash/RAM without PCB redesign - provided the application fits within the smaller 2 KB/256 B resource envelope of the MSP430F2112TPWR.
