Product details
Overview
MSP430F2416TPM from Texas Instruments is an ultra-low-power 16-bit RISC microcontroller with 92KB+256B flash, 4KB RAM, 12-bit ADC, dual USCI_A/USCI_B modules (UART/I²C/SPI), 16-bit Timer_A and Timer_B, on-chip comparator, and supply voltage supervisor. It operates from 1.8 V to 3.6 V and targets battery-powered sensor nodes and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MSP430F2416TPM datasheet, MSP430F2416TPM pinout, MSP430F2416TPM application, or MSP430F2416TPM equivalent, key selection criteria include LQFP-64 package compatibility, absence of DAC12/DMA (vs. F261x), 48 GPIO count, calibrated DCO wake-up <1 µs, and medical-grade nonmagnetic option availability.
Technical Context
The MSP430F2416TPM implements a 16-bit CPU with constant generators and five low-power modes optimized for extended battery life. Its clock system integrates a calibrated DCO, LFXT1 crystal oscillator (32.768 kHz), and VLO, enabling sub-µs wake-up from LPM3/LPM4.
Peripheral integration includes ADC12 with internal reference and autoscan, two independent USCI modules supporting simultaneous UART/I²C/SPI, and Timer_B7 with shadow registers for glitch-free PWM generation - all without DMA or DAC hardware present in the F261x series.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MSP430F2417TPM | Same core/peripherals but 8KB RAM vs. 4KB; no DAC12/DMA | Better suited for applications requiring larger data buffers (e.g., waveform capture, extended logging) | Select when >4KB RAM is required without DAC/DMA functionality |
| MSP430F2616TPM | Includes DAC12 (dual 12-bit voltage outputs) and 3-channel DMA; identical flash/RAM | Required for closed-loop analog control (e.g., sensor calibration, actuator drive) or high-throughput data movement | Choose only if DAC or DMA is essential; otherwise F2416TPM offers cost/power advantage |
Compared with MSP430F2417TPM, the MSP430F2416TPM trades RAM capacity for lower cost and identical power profile; versus MSP430F2616TPM, it removes DAC/DMA to reduce active current and silicon area while retaining full timer, ADC, and serial capabilities.

FAQ
What is the maximum ADC sampling rate supported by the MSP430F2416TPM?
The MSP430F2416TPM ADC12 supports a maximum conversion clock (fADC12CLK) of 7 MHz, enabling minimum conversion time of 1.86 µs per sample. With autoscan enabled across multiple channels, effective throughput depends on setup time and channel count, but single-channel sampling can exceed 500 kSPS under optimal conditions using internal reference and minimal sampling time.
Does the MSP430F2416TPM include hardware DAC functionality?
No, the MSP430F2416TPM does not include DAC12 hardware. DAC12 is exclusive to the MSP430F261x series. The MSP430F2416TPM relies on PWM-based analog output or external DACs for voltage generation, preserving its ultra-low-power profile and cost structure for sensor acquisition-focused designs.
What package options are available for the MSP430F2416TPM?
The MSP430F2416TPM is offered exclusively in the 64-pin LQFP (PM) package, measuring 10 mm × 10 mm. This variant is also available in a nonmagnetic version qualified for medical imaging environments such as MRI suites, where magnetic interference must be minimized.
How many USCI modules does the MSP430F2416TPM support, and what protocols do they handle?
The MSP430F2416TPM integrates four USCI modules: USCI_A0, USCI_A1, USCI_B0, and USCI_B1. Each USCI_A supports UART, IrDA, and SPI; each USCI_B supports I²C and SPI. This allows concurrent operation of two UART links, two I²C buses, or mixed configurations - for example, UART + I²C + SPI simultaneously.
Is the MSP430F2416TPM pin-compatible with any MSP430F261x devices?
The MSP430F2416TPM shares the same 64-pin LQFP (PM) footprint and pinout with MSP430F2616TPM, MSP430F2617TPM, MSP430F2618TPM, and MSP430F2619TPM. However, pins designated for DAC12 (e.g., P6.5, P6.6, P6.7) and DMA (e.g., P2.6) on F261x devices are repurposed as general I/O or ADC inputs on the MSP430F2416TPM - requiring firmware adaptation despite mechanical compatibility.
